Good motel quality (def not a hotel)
For room quality, there is a scale for motels and a different scale for hotels. On the motel scale, this is the top end - clean, basic, convenient. Better than most motels because it was easy and clean but the price was def in the hotel range for this particular weekend. On the hotel scale, this would have lost major points for furniture, decor, ambiance. The top sheet/blanket was dusty, the bathroom was FREEZING cold, the room was dark (there were only two light and even with those on, it felt dark in the room)

Good Value, Clean Rooms. Hotel is dated but works fine for us as we’re there to ski and are only at the room to sleep. Owners are very kind.

Good price, but questionable experience
Pretty run down rooms (no electric outlets covers and lots of electric splitters thrown on the ground for example), very tight shower stall, creaky doors. Beds were comfortable however. Also the blinds were good and kept the light out. Bottom of stairs had slippery ice which was dangerous. The parking lot is very tight. And there were no chairs surrounding a fire pit on artificial turf, like in the photos. Finally, this whole property is managed remotely through texting— checkin and check out are all by texting. No one at the front desk over night.

Tahoe ski trip
A very nice older motel that has been renovated and kept up. Clean room and very nice clean beds in good condition. Front clerk was very nice and hospitable. Plenty of parking in a nice neighborhood and convenient to various restaurant's locations.

Clean and amazing service
We had left another hotel due to being dirty. The office manager was so kind and understanding, upgraded us from queen to king. Just such great hospitality, and service. Will definitely come again.

Really great, friendly service. The room was clean, but in definite need of updating bathroom. Walls are thin and you can hear conversations of neighbors as well as every time they flush a toilet or use the shower. Still, since I wasn’t in Tahoe to stay in the room, I’d come here again since service was friendly, beds were comfortable and price was right.

Blue Bird Inn 2nd time stay
This 2nd time here was much better than the 1st time. The room was cleaner and no wet carpet/floor, no dirty and sticky tables, and drawers didnt have the last person's stuff in it. That's from our 1st time staying at Blue Bird Inn. Our 2 rooms were nasty our 1st time here. This 2nd time though, love that there's AC and heater in the room, hot and cold water, a few toiletries, towels. I wish the bathroom have something to hang towels on. Appreciate that there was a hair blow dryer in our room. Thank you for that!!! Easy to check in and easy to get our keys to our room. Parking is a little tight. So if you have a truck or big car, it'll be a tight squeeze. Smaller cars will be ok.
