“Ith Big Bear Lake Hostel & Lodge presents a budget-conscious option, although reports suggest inconsistencies in cleanliness and room quality. The communal environment may not suit those seeking privacy or quiet, and potential noise issues should be considered. While the sunrise view offers a redeeming feature, improvements in maintenance and guest consideration appear necessary.”
