8/10 Very good

We stayed at the motel portion over the weekend, 2 adults and 2 children. Location is great, within short distance to the Village and with many nearby restaurants. The room was clean and cozy with modern amenities. Reception staff were available and always courteous and helpful. The refrigerator came in handy as well. Shower drain in the unit was slow initially but the staff remedied that quickly. Lighting over the sink is somewhat dim, making it difficult to see the luggage area nearby in the dark. There is parking in front of the motel building but it fills up depending on occupancy, in which case one would have to find parking further away next to other property buildings. Its not a long walk but when coming back late with sleeping children can be a mild annoyance. Overall we enjoyed our stay.

Modernized environment with relaxing areas to hang out at like a yoga area and fire pits to warm up together at. Room was spacious and clean, had warm lighting and designs. Loved the artwork! Bathing and toilet area was a bit cramped but I loved their soaps, shampoo and conditioner! I will stay there again.

Whenever I go skiing at summit or big bear I always stay here. It’s literally right next to summit and has that mountain vibe. Highly recommend. Staff is friendly rooms clean and nicely decorated.

We loved our stay at Sessions. The rooms and all facilities were exceptionally clean. The staff was very helpful, especially Venetia. The amenities were great, we especially loved being able to play in the snow on the back of the property, since we have very young children it was very convenient. Just be aware that the building is older and so not as quiet as a normal hotel would be, although that wasn’t too much of a problem for us. Great location, definitely worth the price.

The location is very convenient. The staff is super nice, helpful, and friendly. Good price for a nice room, and the amenities are great. There was no water in the dispenser in the morning in the kitchen area, but otherwise it’s a great place to stay.
