    I was unaware that there was not an elevator and we are elderly. Lugging up the stairs to our room was not happy. Also, I like decaf coffee and our first day to get some, none was made. But after I let the front desk know we would be there for the whole week, they made sure it was made.

    I liked that the location was good. I liked the no smoking policy on premises. I liked the view.

    The bed wasn't the most comfortable, but regardless we felt the Inn was definitely a place we'd revisit. Great value stay!

    Excellent value for money. Very cozy and super friendly staff. Great coffee and donuts in the morning. Room had lovely views of the mountains from right in downtown Gardnerville.

    We met the blizzard in our trip to Tahoe and needed to stay one more night before going home. Historian Inn is a nice and clean hotel and they also offer fresh donuts and the hot coffee in the morning. In that terrible blizzard night, the inn saved our night definitely. We appreciate it.

    They used too much cleaning chemicals that the room was really filled with Strong odor. After airing it out for an hour smell gone. Room was loud because it was looking at the road but we are heavy sleepers so it did not affect us a lot but it needs to be noted.

    Big and clean room. Complimentary donuts and coffee on the lobby. Friendly staff. We recommend it.

    This is a typical motel with a deceiving facade. If you’re expecting anything historical or to be staying at an “inn” you will be disappointed.

    Super friendly and helpful manager. Gave us directions and recommendations. Very nice parlor in the lobby with tables and chairs and couches where you could hang out. Great coffee and fresh donuts in the mornings. Room was large, had coffee maker and mini-fridge. Tables and chairs out front so you could sit outside. Dog friendly, quite a few guests had dogs.

    Ice machine was out of service with no replacement options, I just needed a small amount for drinks. They could have provided bagged ice in an ice chest.

    All went smoothly at check in and out. The location was very convenient.

    Having to figure out how to work the tv was a bit unnecessary. Should be more straight forward.

    The air-conditioning was very loud, and so when we turned it on at night, we didn't have the easiest sleep. :(

    It was a very nice place in a lovely 'countryside' area, located just 30mins from South Lake Tahoe. Very friendly staff, room was very nice and clean, with comfortable large bed. Plenty of restaurants around, though still gave us a proper 'village vibe'. This place was on located on the main road of the Gardnerville town, but we didn't hear anything from the streets at night. We visited the Lake Tahoe after spending a night in Gardnerville, it was very easily reachable, price-value of this place was really great. We appreciated the large mirror in the room, where we both fit in the morning and plenty of space in the room.

    It is next to a bar so one night the music was a little loud. The Hot and Cold were switched on the shower, that is concerning.

    The location was ok.
