Nice place to stay. The check-in instructions were confusing. On Expedia, it said there is no front desk, but there was an office to check in. They have a kitchen but NO STOVE. I didn't find any hair dryer either.

I liked that it was quiet, but that was probably due to that it wasn't high peak season and there weren't that many people staying there. It's an older place, but I didn't have any issues with the place, and I didn't need to speak to anyone about services. The bathroom rugs need to be replaced; they were discolored, and one of them was a towel, not a rug. I also liked that there are many places where you can walk to, such as restaurants and shops. Also, the town has one of the best skate parks I have ever visited. I was never told about amenities, and I noticed that there was a jacuzzi there, which I later found out was available for guests, but I was already leaving when I found out.

I've stayed here a couple of times now and the cleanliness is questionable. The blankets, shams, pillows, and comforter are not washed after every guest, they smelled. Clean towels are provided and you see the difference how there are washed. Aside from this the hostel is conveniently located.

Uncomfortable Bed Ruined Entire Experience

The bed was horribly uncomfortable, hence the overall low scores. You don't expect much from a hostel and this place is in line with low expectations. But, the bed being so uncomfortable is malpractice for any hostel.

Convenient location, wonderful people

Affordable, close to the slopes, this spot is great for solo ski travel. But what set it apart was the amazing people I met while there. Definitely plan on coming back!

There are no mattresses. They’re slabs of plywood with a sleep pad on top. The most uncomfortable “bed” I slept on in years. Camping is more comfortable.

Stayed here for a couple of nights while hiking in the Mammoth Lakes region. No major complaints. If your room is on the upper floor, it can be a bit of a work getting your luggage up and down if you have multiple small items. The bathroom design was a bit weird bcoz two persons may not be able to access the restrooms independently, check the pictures if they have them. Super small showers. Tbh, the hostel I stayed in at Breckenridge CO offered a lot more value for money at the same price.

Disliked: Amenities
I’ve stayed here twice this season. A few things I would adjust. All the pillows are like an inch thick I think they should throw all of them away and get real pillows. Also they give you very thin blankets and it’s cold in the rooms. So I had to aft for a comforter and luckily they had one. As far as nice staff they deff are very nice. Also I would recommend painting the walls a new color. Gray or sage Greg, antique white something modern. The yellow walls makes this place feel very old and dated. It’s deff needs some love but the price is perfect.

It was a hostel, bunk beds like a college dorm, shared bathroom etc. Some are better, some are worse. Inexpensive. I was on the road camping out most nights. It was really cold that night, just needed a place to sleep. It served the purpose

This was my first hostel experience and it was good! Overall clean and the kitchen had what I needed. It was another solo trip for me and it was nice to make a few friends to ski with. My room (206), was uncomfortably cold the first night, even with the extra blanket. I asked one of the cleaning staff for a space heater (per another reviewer) and that saved me!
