The Americana is a perfectly fine timeshare, and the location is just plain perfect in my favorite place to vacation: Lake Tahoe! The lack of full kitchen was the primary issue, and the rooms (with the step down to the bathroom) are only adequate. Nevertheless, the pool/spa is great, they have loaner bikes and golf clubs, and they do some... more

I checked in on a hot evening in late July. While I did not expect airconditioning, it would seem that having had the window open, even minimally, prior to arrival would have been nice. It was hot, and the only window to open was the main window next to the exterior door entrance. I did not feel secure under the... more

We stayed a total of four nights at the Americana Village Resort in South Lake Tahoe and found it to be a great vacation spot close to the center of town. From the outside, the property looks a little dated (maybe still in the '70s or '80s), but the rooms are updated and very clean. We stayed in an Ambassador... more

A group of 4 of us rented 2 rooms for 3 nights. Since it was only guys on the trip we decided on staying at the lowest cost place we could find on Expedia. I was a little hesitant as it was only 2 stars but we figured we were only going to sleep in the room so who cares...Well... more

If you're looking for a 4 or 5-star hotel, look elsewhere. This place definitely feels like an extended stay hotel. It's a bit larger and more homey than a normal hotel room, with a kitchenette and dining table. The kitchenette was fully stocked with a cups, plates, and silverware. Appliance-wise, you get a mini-fridge, microwave, toaster, coffee maker, and a... more

The stay at this hotel was great. we loved the fact that we had a toaster,frige,coffe maker and blender. the staff was wonderful and very helpful. The rooms were very clean. The only bad thing about this hotel is that the walls are very thin you can hear everything. but other than that. our stay was wondewrful. Close to everything. more

We went last year, and we wanted to return again for Christmas but its all full. This is one of our favorite hotels to stay at. Its very clean, the rooms are verry specious, and it even brings a little kitchen and bathroom is spacious. We had a great time, and they have delicous pop corn in the lobby. Hope... more

We were pleasantly surprised at this accommodation (room 337). We reserved it through RCI and were a little concerned as we are used to 4-star places. Yes, it appears to be out of the 1950s, but the interiors are well maintained--although a little dated. Lots of mauve and green. But it is all VERY well maintained. VERY Clean, smells normal... more

The hotel is clearly an older property that they're trying to keep up to date. The layout of the rooms are truly funky, but functional. Bed mattress was very firm which was great after a long day on the slopes. Bathroom and kitchen are small but nice and functional (coffee would have been nice to go with the maker!). The... more
