Aside from the bar - dire
Pros:

Utterly grumpy staff with little to no interest in customer service - the welcome was about as warm as the arctic and it got worse from there. The only thing I liked was the bar - which was excellent.

Cons:

The staff - so far up their own 4rse that they'll need speaking to - much cheaper hotels had better staff by miles. The "air conditioning" in the room was dire, a portable unit that blew air in one direction and called me about as much as a bath in a tub of mustard. Great bar, the rest I would never miss in a million years. Sort the staff attitude, sort the air conditioning and try welcoming guests

This place will be pumping in the snow season and for that the location is perfect as you are right on the doorstep of s
Pros:

The look of it an Austria Lodge.
We were located on the main floor however still had to navigate steps to the lobby.
The grab n go breakfast that was good.

Cons:

Room was small, one of the bed lights wasn’t plugged in, the fan didn’t work, one of the sink plugs was stuck down. It was noisy from the other connected rooms you could hear the toilets flushing. The pipes outside our room were making noises all during the night also plastic garbage bag was tied to a bollard that due to the wind was also making noises so we didn’t have a goodnights sleep.

Solid quiet lodging at a good price.
Pros:

My room on the first floor was beautiful. It appears they are doing some redecorating and I think that the second floor is more dated. It was nice that they included a continental breakfast. I was not expecting that based on the description. The staff, both reception and cleaning was great. Quiet, due to being located at the end of a cul-de-sac at the bottom of some ski lifts. As a solo female traveler, I felt safe.

Cons:

Know that there are no elevators you will need to lug your luggage up the front stairs to the lobby plus up narrow stairs if you're on the second floor. There's quite a deal of construction going on right now, across the street. September 2026. Lots of construction vehicles by the buildings. The outside and lobby look dated. Parking is tight if they are booked full up. But the staff was very good about helping people find parking spaces.

Pros:

La ville de mammoth lake est superbe, petite station de ski huppé vraiment la ville est belle.

Cons:

La chambre est très bien petit confortable mais le tarif est stratosphérique pour ce type de chambre 200$ pas moyen de trouver moins chère dans le coin, c’est une zone horriblement chère essence à 7$ le gallon bref tout est chère. Attention l’hôtel de bénéficie pas d’ascenseur alors si on donne le 3ème étage il faut porter les valises est c’est haut . Le petit dej est compris mais il n’y a pas de salle vous prenez un café et un morceau de cake et vous montez dans votre chambre le parking est petit et en plus il est difficile de se garer dans le coin. Si vous avez pas le choix vous pouvez y aller connaissance de cause,

Fantastico
Pros:

Ci siamo trovati davvero bene. La camera era spaziosa e pulita, staff veramente gentile, parcheggio comodo di fianco all’hotel e soprattutto gratis. Sei a 5 minuti in macchina dai ristoranti e dal supermercato. Sicuramente lo consiglierei a tutte le persone che vanno o tornano dallo Yosemite.

Cons:

Nulla
