Mammoth Mountain Inn

We stayed 3 nights and for the age of the Inn we payed way more then it was worth they definitely need to update the place. It was hot and uncomfortable in our room making it hard to sleep, there was no ac opening a window didn't help either no cross breeze the way the rooms are set up. The pool was nice but small. Food was good but very pricey we drove to the village and ate most of the time because of the prices at the Inn. They charge a $20 resort fee plus a $2.60 occupancy fee per night.  We tried to look into child care and they are closed till Nov. Wifi was very slow.  I will not stay here again.

The only thing this antiquated facility has going for it is proximity to skiing. That would be great except that it's July and skiing is unavailable. There is no air conditioning and Mammoth has been reaching over 90º. Rooms are small with bathrooms that are narrow enough that the toilet has only a few inches on either side of the wall and shower. Many of the rooms are on the ground floor which makes for little privacy. Any shred of privacy left is moot because the walls and floors are thin so you can hear everything going on around you. The hotel is isolated from the town and operates the only restaurants which are overpriced and serve very sub par food (I had a few bites of my $18 pasta and the waiter didn't even ask if everything was OK).

If you don't have to ski in and out of your hotel do yourself a favor and stay somewhere with self respect. The Villages or Westin are both nice.

Very nice resort at the base of Mammoth Mountain. The first resort for the skiers when the town barely existed. We called multiple times to ask for directions (GPS gives you a different location ) No one answered as we found out the one girl managing the desk was busy checking in customers. Summertime has a minimal crew, but it should not affect service that much! Restaurants are closed and halls are really long to walk down to any elevator. Reminded me of the "Shining" with the hallways and the snowed in lodge!  They also charge a resort fee...something we never used. The room was ok, clean, and spacious enough. However the water was not very hot, and when we checked out no one was there again at the front desk . This would not be a choice again for me in the summer.... maybe for the winter.
