I’ll lead off by saying it’s not cheap to stay in Mammoth during ski season, let alone walking distance to the lodge which can be a big incentive when organizing a group of 6 with kids, and 2 bathrooms was non-negotiable must-have. Non-carpeted flooring was a close second but that’s where we compromised since booking just 1 week in advance left us with few affordable options.
Pros: close to lodge, updated appliances, assigned garage parking, proximity to spa.
Cons: the master bedroom has a queen mattress - NOT a king bed as advertised, all the doorknobs are broken, no insulation, thin walls - you can hear conversations in the next unit from the master as if they were in the next room, climate control difficult - it got really hot in the upstairs sleeping areas (especially the loft which had no windows) while downstairs took time to heat up, this was made worse by opening the upstairs master bedroom window because another unit across the way was partying out on their balcony - yes we could’ve called management or the cops on them at 1am but couldn’t work up the energy, and finally, the idea of the spa was great but in reality it’s more like soaking in a soup of 95 degree chlorinated water with 10 dudes, though it seemingly satisfied the kids. I hate to leave a negative review but our experience was disappointing and we won’t be choosing to come back to any units in this particular complex.
