I like hostels, and Moderne has a nice kitchen with all the stuff you need to cook. I didn’t like the bed, and didn’t sleep well.

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.

Its old motel and hostel, but good for hiker. Book by expedia is expansive than hotel itself.
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.

Self check in worked fine, Hostel is nice and clean.
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!
Was easy to get the key even after checking in very late. Comfortable premises and fair price.

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.
Hostel was clean and comfortable. Check-in was a bit odd; your key and info are in an envelope on a bulletin board.
Small common area but a large kitchen. Overall, if you're trying to save a buck to spend later up at Mammoth Mountain, this spot is hard to beat.
Lots of parking right out front, easy walk to a brewery.

Very cool stay
Very basic stay but the affordable one in the whole city of Mammoth Lake. House keepers did a great job changing sheets an. Cleaning each dorm room.
This is a nice hostel. Each bunk has its own locker with combination lock. Wifi worked very well. More electrical outlets are needed for charging cellphones.

Hostel stay
Check in time was an hour after the time noted in the email which had stated 2 pm.
Apart from that all was good. We had a two person room with one queen bed.
Bed was very comfortable as were the pillows. Shared bathroom was clean and the shower was good and water hot. Unusual bathroom layout with two toilets in shared space with no individual doors, but one could lock the outer door if needed.
Convenient location and it was quiet the night we stayed.
I would stay here again.
Great place when you're on a budget. Chance to meet PCT hikers and people from all over. Kitchen was equipped ok for when I was there, since the place was not full. If it would be, there is not enough mugs, plates or utensils for everyone. Would definitely come back.
We booked a queens bee for 2bed. We just needed a place to sleep after a drive. Overall good. Room was clean. There were bedsheets and couple of towels. Shared bathroom was clean. Kitchen was smelling because someone might have just heated their food. Overall good if you just need a place to crash.

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!
