Thank you. ##### Jonathan Stayed 1 night in Jan 2024 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Spencer Oct 25, 2024 Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Multiple people staying in the same room, people coming in and out until 2am in the morning, slamming the door back and forth, entering the code, no respect for other people sleep, then once everyone is in bed, they start snoring and farting, I never stayed in a hotel before I probably wouldn’t ever stay again. Breakfast was extremely limited and I had one egg and a banana. Please is a joke, bathroom toilet did not work and water kept running, so while the bathroom needed to be cleaned or toilet fix the lady is folding sheets, care case of these people do not know what they are doing. After giving a bad review, you get these threatening emails from their staff? Very unprofessional behavior, pay a little more for privacy and a better property. Sunrise was nice outside, except the hippy stoner smoking weed in the front. If you want a crowded smelly, stranger danger stay, this is the place for you. The Chinese Covirent store down the street will also rip you off if you use a credit card. I do not recommend. Also the mattress are super soft and no back support, they use the cheapest material that they could find, also my sheets were dirty with someone long silver hairs. ##### Spencer Stayed 1 night in Oct 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Andrea Jul 10, 2025 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Amenities Check in was easy and receptionist was very nice. The property is also very close to town and Big Bear Lake. However the shower was dirty, and the bath mat had a previous guest’s trash on it. For this reason we didn’t shower during our visit. I believe there are other showers that guests share, but we booked a room with its own shower/toilet for privacy. If you plan on staying out most of the day and just need a place to rest, this is an okay option. ##### Andrea Stayed 1 night in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### I Putu Anindya Richie Oct 15, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities not gonna lie, everything about this place is amazing! ##### I Putu Anindya Richie Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### A.Richie Oct 15, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities first time coming to Big Bear Lake, grateful i got a super great place to stay.

No staff present when we arrive! ##### Dionisio Stayed 1 night in Jun 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller Aug 4, 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### ITH Big Bear Pictures are very deceiving. Shower was very dirty for about a foot up and the bathmat was so stiff I don't think it had been washed in weeks. I never did get hot water in the sink. There is no insulation between the rooms. Another guest was playing music so loud I couldn't read or sleep and this went on well past 10 pm. The vinyl tile on the floor had up to one inch spaces in in places and my foot was pinched several times not to mention the trip hazard. Hostel or not I expected a clean facility. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Joseph Wilson P Sep 9, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities 1st time staying in a Hostel place. Like the experience of uniqueness of it. The style of the place is like a rustic cabin/lodge. Improvements could be a more parking spaces and an AC unit/system. ##### Joseph Wilson P Stayed 1 night in Sep 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sandra, West Columbia Apr 22, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities For young & old alike the hostel experience is one not to be missed. Great place to meet folks from all over, not to mention all PCT thruhikers taking a break from the trail. ##### Sandra Stayed 1 night in Apr 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Brian Mar 8, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Extremely helpful and friendly staff. Shower on the west side took 5 min to warm up but it is to be expected in an older place. ##### Brian Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### David, Chicago Feb 17, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities I stayed there with my 8 year old son, so he could experience the vibe of a hostel. We had a great time, met cool people, and loved the openness of the property. It was well maintained, very friendly staff, bed was comfortable, but we did have a private room. We will definitely be coming here again. It was the first weekend that the hostel was open, so there were maybe a dozen guests, so it may be different when full, but overall it was a great experience. ##### David Stayed 1 night in Feb 2022 ### 4/10 Poor #### Raziel Dec 19, 2021 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### The last resort, no choice place to stay First time to stay here and I would say it’s not comfortable. Everything is too small and old. Great thing I brought lysol wipes with me to clean. Shower is very small. Not ideal to take shower. I wonder why they did such small shower and nobody can use. Just a catch to have someone rent it. This is like a very last resort and no choice place to stay. The staff are really nice and friendly. I hope they will fix the rooms and the restrooms upstairs. And the place is very old so needs updating and cleaning. ##### Raziel Stayed 1 night in Dec 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Eduardo Dec 4, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Great place. Very friendly staff. Excellent value for your money. ##### Eduardo Stayed 1 night in Dec 2021 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Montrose at Beverly Hills](https://www.expedia.ca/Los-Angeles-Hotels-Montrose-West-Hollywood.h17594.Hotel-Information) > > [Element Anaheim Resort Convention Center](https://www.expedia.ca/Anaheim-Hotels-Element-Anaheim-Resort-Convention-Center.h37620004.Hotel-Information) > > [Spacious Cabin w/ Modern Amenities, Foosball & Boat Parking](https://www.expedia.ca/Big-Bear-Lake-Hotels-Beautiful-REMODELED-Cabin-With-Coffee-Bar.h59285893.Hotel-Information) > > [NAMU CABIN • Modern Chic Design w/ Spa & Gameroom](https://www.expedia.ca/Big-Bear-Lake-Hotels-NEW-Namu-Cabin-Modern-Cozy-Mountain-Getaway.h83043011.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Caza Fisherman's Wharf](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Francisco-Hotels-Hotel-Caza.h38249309.Hotel-Information) > > [Beacon Grand, A Union Square Hotel ](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Francisco-Hotels-Sir-Francis-Drake-Hotel.h15254.Hotel-Information) > > [Cameo Beverly Hills, LXR Hotels & Resorts](https://www.expedia.ca/Los-Angeles-Hotels-Cameo-Beverly-Hills.h14537.Hotel-Information) > > [STILE Downtown Los Angeles by Kasa](https://www.expedia.ca/Los-Angeles-Hotels-STILE-Downtown-Los-Angeles-By-Kasa.h6948120.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Ziggy on Sunset](https://www.expedia.ca/Los-Angeles-Hotels-Hotel-Ziggy-Los-Angeles.h11087.Hotel-Information) > > [The Colony Palms Hotel and Bungalows - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-The-Colony-Palms-Hotel-And-Bungalows.h1652438.Hotel-Information) > > [The Barnes San Francisco, Tapestry Collection by Hilton](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Francisco-Hotels-Villa-Florence-San-Francisco-On-Union-Square.h5425.Hotel-Information) > > [Pixar Place Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Anaheim-Hotels-Disneys-Paradise-Pier-Hotel.h9503.Hotel-Information) > > [The Commerce Casino & Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Los-Angeles-Hotels-Crowne-Plaza-Hotel-Los-Angeles-Commerce-Casino.h533227.Hotel-Information) > > [The Lum Hotel Los Angeles Stadium District](https://www.expedia.ca/Los-Angeles-Hotels-The-Lum-Hotel-Los-Angeles-Stadium-District.h73661156.Hotel-Information) > > [Adorable LAKEFRONT cabin!
