"I had to shovel three foot high snow 10 feet long to get to the front door. I also had to shovel another six feet to get to the stairs as well. Luckily I brought a shovel because if I hadn’t I couldn’t have gotten into the place. This was after being told the room wasn’t ready and was being worked on. Once inside it was a Time Machine back the 80s everything was extremely outdated. The only plus was location and view"

Ayres Hotel Redlands – Loma Linda

10/10 Excellent

"Emily is great!! Always helpful and super friendly!! This is the hotel to stay at when in Redlands!!"

Postcard Cabins Big Bear, Outdoor Collection by Marriott Bonvoy

10/10 Excellent

"Awesome and unique place to stay! I booked through Expedia, so I wasn’t aware of the burn notices until right after booking. Unfortunately, we couldn’t enjoy the fire pit like shown in the photos, which was one of the main reasons I booked. I’d recommend calling ahead to check on any fire restrictions before booking, just in case. Other than that, there were a couple of small things that could have been better. The floors felt a little unclean when walking on them, and the shower could have been cleaner. Nothing that would stop me from staying again, though! I really liked that check-in was just through text. It made the experience feel less like a traditional hotel and more private and personal. Overall, it was a really cool and unique place to stay. I’ve already recommended it to friends and would definitely stay again!"
