If you need a crash pad and nothing more.
Pros:

The location of the property was very convenient to town bus stops, easy access to the village gondola.

Cons:

The room was VERY dated, everything is original from the 1980s. The surge pricing over our weekend stay was very high, considering how old the hotel is. Unclear if our heater was actually working...

Comfy getaway
Pros:

Super comfy accommodations. Staff was super friendly, couldn’t believe how happy they were to help. Hot breakfast each morning. Lovely little place to rest at after skiing all day. Maria Elena was very attentive and made sure my boyfriend and I were taken care of. Such a sweet lady. We were lucky to even book a room considering the fresh snowfall.

Pros:

The room was good, bed was comfortable and quiet also. Hotel seems to being updated so I think that's going to help.

Cons:

Hotel staff when I checked in were not the friendliest and didn't seem to want to make my experience any better. I was there for an emergency stay and there was no empathy shown by the staff.

Short stay, easy access. Disappointed in the property condition. Staff was friendly.
Pros:

Was able to check in an hour early that was nice.
Close to stores and restaurants.
The room was quiet and comfortable.

Cons:

The breakfast was not great. 1 waffle iron for the 20 + people. We skipped it due to the line to gain access and stay on schedule.
The pool and spa were not open. This was not advertised at the time i booked the room.
The bathroom was run down and not pleasant.

reasonably priced, pet friendly spacious room in center of town.
Pros:

Found this room reasonably priced during busy holiday weekend. at Mammoth. It’s a bit of a diamond in the rough. Yes, needs some updating, painting, rug cleaning in hallways especially, but if you can look past the superficial, this place is a gem.
Here’s what we loved- covered parking that connects to to the hotel. pet friendly, spacious rooms with small kitchenette- microwave, sink, counter, fridge, comfy beds and free breakfast. Ok, breakfast is not all perfect- pastries hard, eggs not good, BUT bagels fine toasted, waffle maker, yogurt, oatmeal, cereal and self serve coffee/tea and hot chocolate in the lobby. And, close to everything.
We paid twice as much a few weeks back to stay at Outbound just up the street which was cleaner but has outdoor parking and smaller rooms.
Cons: upkeep needed, pool closed, avoid eggs and muffins
If you go in with right expectations, this is a great deal.
