Homestays in California, United States

Best location! It was near and easy going around Yosemite park from this hotel. Right outside our room was the river and it was the best sight specially in the morning. Love the big bath tub with jets! Just needs more cleaning coz i noticed it has got molds already. There is absolutely no phone signal here and Wifi is not free so you have to purchase on check in. Funny tho coz once you are in Yosemite park, there is LTE signal. There is fridge, cooking utensils, electric stove, plates, cups, cleaning stuff, room was huge!! We got the 2 queen beds room type. The food in their restaurant is not so bad, the service could be better tho. Our food came super slow. There is plenty of parking space and its for free. I never get to try their pool and laundry facilities.

I booked a second time and I appreciate the professional and quick service by Trevor. He’s a good man.

From the moment we arrived for our stay we were greeted by professional and friendly staff. Jess was so helpful and made our stay awesome from the time she checked us into our room. I highly recommend the double connecting rooms for families and it was clean, nice and newly remodeled it seemed and perfect for us and our 3 young children. I have to say we made an instant friend in Paul as well. Superior service and as my kids now say he is their new friend! Thank you for your amazing hospitality and all that you and your team did to go out of your way and make a trip one we won’t forget! Highly recommend to anyone staying in the Mammoth area to check out this place. Friendly hospitality and great people are what make up the charm of a hotel in my opinion and this place did not disappoint.

We came out of Yosemite Valley and planned to go to the giant sequoia forest here the next day. The cabin was very nice and clean. It had a refrigerator and a microwave. We heated up the pizza ourselves. The surroundings are very quiet. You can see the Milky Way and many stars at night. When you get up in the morning, you hike around for a while. The atmosphere in the fields is very strong. On the way to check in, I took a sidetrack at night and went back to find the place. However, it was very convenient to check in and check out.

DO NOT STAY HERE! This place is beyond disgusting, unsafe, and unprofessional. I booked a room with 2 queen beds for one night for 3 adults. The room we were given had one bed and a mattress for us to sleep on. The actual bed didn't have any blankets, only a sheet and some pillows. The mattress didn't even have that, it was just a stained fitted sheet that looked like it hadn't been washed. We searched the entire room for blankets or even a single pillow/top sheet for the mattress but there was nothing in the room. I went to the front desk and asked the manager if we could have some pillows and blankets since our room had none. She told us we didn't ”need any” since it was ”warm enough” at night. We told her we wanted bedding even if it was ”warm enough” (＜55ºF that night) and she then said the owner didn't let them wash blankets in the summer and that all the pillows and sheets were ”lost” at other properties. I kept insisting and finally she gave me 2 thin white sheets that both had brown stains all over them, telling me to use one as a pillow. I walked away in shock not believing that a hotel I payed $150 to stay one night at refused to give me bedding. To keep the rest short, Once we realized how bad the situation was, we tried to find a room anywhere else in town but there was nothing available within such short notice. It was already late and we had just driven 5 hours from home so we decided to leave very early the next morning to get out of there as soon as possible. Besides the strange and upsetting interaction with the front desk, we also found that the shower had no shower head, the toilet paper roll holder was ripped off the wall and a used roll was sitting on the counter instead, the bathroom sink was covered in dried toothpaste and green mold, the pot for a large decorative plant was filled with trash, the only ”lock” on the door was a key code (that was known by the staff) and a broken latch bolt that didn't even stay on the door, and finally, a DEAD LIZARD in the cabinet next to the bed! It almost felt like a sick joke or a scam. I am horrified that this is how we were treated.

The room was very cute and appropriate for an older mountain lake hotel. It was clean and the amenities were exactly what we needed. The view was beautiful which made up for any room shortcomings and despite it being pretty warm, there was a nice breeze most of the time we were there. Since there's no air conditioning, the floor fan helped in the evenings when the wind died down. The location was great since there were several restaurants within walking distance. The only real complaints are that the pads on the metal chairs on the balcony were all worn down, making it feel like you were sitting on the seat bars. We reversed the pad so that we were sitting on the back section of the pad which helped but the pads should be replaced. Although the mattress was ok, it wasn't that comfortable. An upgrade on the mattress would be helpful.

Leuk hotel Sorry that the hot tube was out of use Further comfortable hotel room Breakfast is fine And a bear seen!

I choose this place based on location since it was conveniently located near the Tioga Pass entrance. There aren’t a lot of options available in this area. This lodge is landscaped beautifully but doesn’t offer much in amenities. Check in is at 4:00. I arrived at 3:30 and was told I needed to come back at 4:00. No worries, we went to Whoa Nellies Deli and got a bite to eat. The room was fine, no frills. Just a basic room with 2 queen beds. They offer a military discount which was nice and they thanked me for my service which I appreciated. The room cost $250 for the night, quite steep, but you are paying for the location. Mono Market is close by for snacks and drinks, Whoa Nellie Deli which is located in the Mobil has good hot food choices. And Latte Da Coffee has delicious breakfast food and coffee. Mono Lake is near by along with several other lakes you can hike to. Bring bug spray because the mosquitoes are no joke!

I have booked a King room with Forest View for 2 nights and decided to add another night but the same room was not available, So I booked the additional night in the premium category. I called the property the day before and was told she may find a way so that we don't have to change our room. When we checked in around 9pm, they left a key to our room on the 3rd floor. This room is the least expensive room where there is only a very small window and it's half covered with eaves of the roof. It was so dark that you cannot read unless you turn the lights on during the day. The next morning, I asked the manager, Susan, we would like the room we booked for or there should be a refund for the rate difference. I was then told we booked through the third party booking site not their own website and we have a heavily discounted price. I really did not see that much difference between what we paid and their website rate. She said then she can waive the service fee of $15 per day additional service fee. I did not see that anywhere in the website. I only saw the handwritten note at the check-in area. She said there is no adjustment whatsoever because we got the cheap rate. All I asked was to get the room categories we booked and deserved. Her answer was I can check out if I was not happy. I made all the travel plans based on staying in the area. This is totally ”Bait and Switch” and her attitude was very unprofessional. We have extensive good experiences at Air BNB, etc. This is one property we were treated poorly. The property is old and needs some attention but overall, it was OK and the breakfast was fairly good and the guy in the kitchen was very helpful. The management left us with bad taste and I will not go back to the property.

This commented that the comments worried that the attitude of the homeowner was only fixed for one night. Later, I went to the hotel and found that the owner was very friendly. Although the Indian accent was difficult to understand, it was very enthusiastic to help us solve the problem. The breakfast was quite good, yogurt coffee, and a mint cheesecake made me very impressed. If you are in the location, you can walk from Universal Studios for ten minutes, but the road is a bit hard to find.
