David Walley's ResortRental Guest Reviews

Very Comfortable

Visiting from Florida for a wedding. The room was perfect for our stay. The kitchen had everything we needed. Bed was comfortable and had extra pillows. The jet tub in the bath was a bonus. Laundry in the room was a life saver. Highly recommend.

Fantastic place tarnished by timeshare

They gave my information to a timeshare company that scammed me out of $50 pretending to be giving me an award for being a Gold member with IHG. They called me on the hotel room phone in the very early AM when I was not thinking clearly. They pretended to be IHG staff and congratulated me for reaching gold. They promised me $150 reward to use for dinner that night. Turns out they instead wanted to sell me a timeshare and added a $50 charge on my credit card for their 2 minute call, that would only be released if I went to a different hotel 30 minutes away (instead of following my planned vacation itinerary) for their 2-4 hour sales pitch. This is scum of the highest degree and cannot believe IHG allows this behavior. If you never pick up the phone, this is the best location and room you can find that gives access to day trips to both Lake Tahoe and Yosemite. Then when you return, the hot springs are a fantastic way to recover from the hiking. The full kitchen and huge tub and king sized bed are phenomenal for the price. If you get a room facing east you will get incredible sunrises over the faraway mountains. You can hear the people right next door like they're standing next to you so your mileage may vary dependent on how loud they are. The coffee is provided but not anything to write home about. Food is not provided, but you have a full stocked kitchen. Overall this was my favorite way to spend a week offline on vacation. If it weren't for them scamming me and trying to take a day out of my vacation to sell a timeshare, this would have been the perfect vacation. I only recommend this place if you disconnect the hotel room phone the second you walk in; otherwise the timeshare people will call incessantly in the very early AM hours to wake you and sell to you while you're still groggy.

Will go again

Check in was super fast. Brittany gave us the highlights on the property. I recommend requesting late checkout so you can go to the hot springs after breakfast and still have enough time to shower before check out.

Relaxing weekend

Perfect for a getaway with your family. The hot springs are nice, and healing waters. The town nearby Genoa, has great food, and shopping/exploring. Could be improved by adding bath robes to guests rooms.

Breathtaking views but rough around the edges

The hotel is wonderfully located, and the views of the mountains are absolutely stunning. The hot springs are quite nice and very enjoyable, however, the hotel is very worn, and my room was mediocre and rundown. The carpet looked old and rundown, the bathroom toilet ran constantly. The shower was dirty. Stains on the ceiling in the bathroom. The AC/heat barely worked. I’m reminded why I’m a Marriott person with this day.

Peaceful and relaxing

A beautiful place to get away to have peace and relaxation. The hot springs are kept clean and there is plenty of spaces to have privacy. The rooms are nice. We stayed in a villa. Having a full kitchen is nice to have if you prefer to cook for yourself. The room was clean. The pillows are little firm for my liking. Overall the place is a wonderful getaway.

Comfortable and relaxing.

This is our second visit to David Wally's and the Hotel, Spa and especially the STAFF did not disappoint! The rooms are a bit "dated" but they are comfortable, clean and peaceful. We had a Villa which comes with nicely appointed full kitchen (stove, oven, microwave, refrigerator/freezer, pots/pans, utensils), with other basics such as coffee maker, toaster, blender etc.... just like home!

Wally’s is worn

Property is worn. The highlight are the hot springs. Hopefully IG will put some $ into revitalizing this property.

Relaxing Weekend

We booked 2 nights at this resort to be able to relax and unwind from everyday life. Although the facilities are starting to show their age, the staff have kept it in great shape. We were able to relax in the hot springs and let the stress of the modern world melt away. The location of the resort is a nice balance of remote seclusion and a quick drive to just about anything that a guest would want to do.

Excellent in Every Way

Will and his team at David Walley's are extremely professional, thoughtful and courteous. I am a Diamond Elite member, and I stay at David Walley's a month or two each year. Will is an excellent communicator, thoughtful and always took time to make sure my stay was as comfortable as possible. Bre, Lori and Brittany are also extremely helpful. I appreciate the whole team at David Walley's. Excellent in every way. Thank you, Larry Cooper
