Unfortunately it wasn’t a great stay. The best part about the hotel was the location & that’s really it. You can walk to the downtown area. Other than that the AC didn’t work our whole stay, the Cable did not work either.

The expedia site indicates that breakfast is included in a stay on this property. This seems not to be the case. There is an attached restaurant, which is under separate management, and during our stay there they did not open for breakfast (although we had been told that breakfast would be available there from 7:00 AM.

There was an issue with check in that was likely a combination of issues between the hotel and Expedia that clearly had frustrated the hotel employees and guests as generally tensions were elevated during check in and it was not the most pleasant experience but it was able to be resolved. The AC was not working in the entire hotel and it was a hot weekend though it cooled down pretty well at night and was quiet enough to keep the windows open. The hotel location is great! Very walkable to things and ample parking which was appreciated. Generally pleasant stay.

The service was good. The air conditioning was broken and there were ants in our room. I also asked about the hot tub and was told it was a cold plunge. That is weird. Seems more like they just don’t want to heat it. Had breakfast at the restaurant and it was decent. Service was very good there. Prob won’t go back. For the price we will go to an air b and b

The hot tub was not working. One of the reasons I booked this place. Last night there, a loud and obnoxious group of people came back to their rooms yellling, and making way too much noise from 12am to 2am. No security???This used to be my favorite hotel in Big Bear. Probably won't be back.

The staff were really responsive to an AC issue we had, and the location is central and unbeatable. We were able to avoid a lot of the traffic and walk around instead.

I have stayed at this facility a few times over the years. this was the last time I'll chose this site. No A/C, no TV, check in took 45 minutes with only 5 people in line and 2 clerks behind the counter. apparently there were issues with 3rd party reservations. no discount offered for lack of services.

Feels like a cheap motel. The staff we encountered was nice. But there’s no AC. Our room was at a constant 75 to 77 degrees. They recommend we “open a window” but we were on the ground floor leading into the open patio area so it’s not like we can leave that open that long. Especially not ideal when you have a toddler like we do.

This is a very well located property, unfortunately, the AC was not working for the hole hotel, this was very uncomfortable, and to make it worse there was no hot water in the shower. Will not be booking here again.
