Not ski in ski out
Not very convenient to get to skiing. Room was very basic not worth money

Hi Gregory, I realize that you were upset by the mountain closing canyon lodge and village gondola. Canyon lodge closes usually during mid April. I am sorry but I don’t have any control over that. There are shuttles from the village to Main Lodge so it can still be convenient. I wish you had reached out before you got frustrated.

My only suggestion is the pillows are very flat. Thankfully, we found the two in the closet so we were able to pile three on top of each other.

I am one that travels a lot and stay in many Weston Hotels as a Bonvoy Platinum member and I can say that the room was very clean and the manager I communicated with was helpful with any of my need bc in this instance I had a car rental issue and the manager was helpful to get me options around town. But to be honest I felt the room was fairly basic for the location and price. I had a good stay but compared to the Weston in Buffalo NY or in Chicago or even in Portland that are priced much cheaper. The room itself was basic for the price I was paying. Again I had a good time and the experience was good but I didn’t feel like the room was all that high end. So this review is sorta a double edge sword I suppose.

great location.
it’s as advertised. everything was great. check in was easy. response time to my messages were quick. never had to drive my car anywhere once i checked in and parked. the locker at canyon was a nice convenience. only negative would be if you have problems with stairs it can be an issue because there are some serious stairs from the village to the rental but that didn’t bother us but it can be a little tiring after a long day of riding. i would totally recommend and would stay her again.

Hi Stephen, Thank you for your feedback. I want to mention that the blue line shuttle from Canyon Lodge drops you off outside the circular driveway at the Westin so there would be no steps to climb if you take the blue line shuttle (instead of the gondola) from Canyon lodge to the Westin.

Westin Monache Studio with Canyon Lodge Locker
I stayed here on a last-minute trip chasing powder at Mammoth. It's a perfect property for a single or a couple. Jen provided easy checkin instructions and was very communicative the entire trip. The unit comes with a ski locker at Canyon Lodge, which means you don't have to lug your gear back and forth. Would highly recommend this place.

The studio unit is very spacious. Our host, Jen, was highly informative and helpful. The property location is great, very central to the Canyon Lodge gondola, restaurants. Underground parking is perfect and easily accessible. Jen is very gracious to let us use her locker at the canyon lodge to store the ski and other equipment. We are definitely coming back.

Very nice property with underground parking. Check in and check out was easy-just followed the instructions and it all went seamlessly. Property is close to the shuttle, which took us and our bikes up to Lake Mary. We then rode the bike path down the mountain into town and back to the condo-with views of the lakes, waterfalls, and the forest along the way-absolutely beautiful. The pool and spa were a welcome spot to spend time after the ride. Plenty of shopping and dining within walking distance of the condo but without the noise and traffic of staying in the village. All said, we really enjoyed our stay.

Mammoth Lakes getaway
Overall the unit is fine for a short stay. It’s comparably furnished to others we stayed in. A few minor differences are higher quality paper towels and toilet paper, but no pool towels or tissues. The only problem was that neither window would open. The owner worked very hard trying to fix them, although no one she sent could get them to open. The larger issue is that even without the current problem, we were told the windows didn’t open more than 2 inches! If you enjoy plenty of fresh mountain air with windows that fully open, choose another unit. If that’s not a priority for you, I’m sure you’ll be happy here.

Very comfortable and well-stocked studio condo. Steps to The Village and shuttles. It was so nice to have access to the parking garage there. I did not use The Westin's amenities that are included with staying at this condo but everything there looks really nice. This condo had everything I needed and more. The host responded quickly to a question I had at check-in. I loved staying here. Thank you, Jenny, for everything.

Very Accommodating Owner/Great Location
We booked this condo at the Monache Resort for two main reasons. First was Jenny's reviews. She has wonderful reviews and its a testament to her ability to accommodate all of her guests. The second reason is her location. If you're going to stay near the Village, the Monache makes the most sense, especially for skiers. The gondola to Canyon Lodge is across the street, parking is so much better than the Village Condos, and the ease of loading family gear when checking-in is superb. We could enjoy the benefits of the Village without having to take be 'living' in the Village and its long walks to our room. Finally, having access to Jenny's ski lockers at Canyon Lodge is great and so helpful! Jenny was easy to communicate with and a pleasure to work with!

Short Winter Getaway
We drive from Reno to ski Mammoth 2-3 times a year. This condo was very clean and in good condition; the bed was exceptional, in our opinion. Jen responded immediately (less than 5 minutes!) to the few questions we had. The location is ideal for skiers as it gives great access to both the Canyon lifts and the Village. Jen provided us use of her personal ski locker at Canyon Lodge. If the locker available take advantage of it and drop your ski gear (boots too) off. That way you just walk down the 75 stairs to the gondola in regular shoes, carrying no skis. Ride the gondola to the lodge, put your boots on in the warm locker room, use the restroom and take the escalator back up to the snow. If one of your group wants to quit early there is no car or waiting for the shuttle to deal with.

Great but initial problems
This was a nice condo with good amenities and well located. Overall we enjoyed staying here. I took off 1 star because of a checkin delay and some problems with the maid service. We could not checkin at 4pm (which is pretty late) and had to wait. The room smelled very heavily of cleaning fluids and stayed that way for quite awhile. The blinds were in a weird position and the normal cord movements would not lower them at night. I finally figured out how to fix this. The bed was very poorly made with the sheets messed up. Finally I figured out that the small sheet was below the large one. Reversing the order allowed the sheet to be tucked into the mattress so it didn't slide all around during the night. It is perhaps a little to short too (shrinkage?).

I apologize about the room being ready a little bit after check in time. It is honestly the first time in 2 years this has happened with my housekeeper falling behind schedule. She is usually able to have it ready by early afternoon. I will share all of your feedback with her so that we can improve. I am glad to hear that you enjoyed your stay overall.

Great studio for two!
My husband and I really enjoyed our stay here. The Westin is a perfect location and the pool area is heavenly. The studio was spotless and very comfortable. Everything was in good working condition and we felt very at home. There’s even a nice view of the Village out the window. Checking in was super easy. We didn’t have to use our car very much since this location is so close to the town trolley, as well as walking distance to restaurants…but when we did take our car out, we had no trouble finding parking when we returned. I would totally recommend this place!
