This place is wonderful! The staff is friendly and treated us like family. It is very well decorated and a clean/safe environment. The rooms are awesome, they have comfortable beds, love sacs, PS2, IPOD docking stations, and FREE MOVIE AND GAME RENTALS. Who could ask for more. At our recent stay there we thought that our room came equipped with a refrigerator (sense we have a small child that is a necessity), but it didn't, we communicated the need with the staff. And they went and got us a refrigerator right away. Now that is service!! We enjoyed our stay and look forward to going again in the near future.

Loved the place. The hotel is clean inside and out. The greatest part was the HUGE TV's in the standard rooms and the nice BBQ deck. We practically never had (or wanted to) leave the place. Meals at the deck, free movies, really cool staff, pool table lounge area, huge tv in the room...the list goes on. The ipod stereo was a nice touch as well :) The block is now the only place i will ever stay in Big Bear.

This place rocked my clock, never have I met such a chill staff or found more relaxing hotel policy as the block. Music from ten-ten plus more perks that I could get to. five stars if your not playing around.

<p>The Block at Big Bear is one of the best hotels I've ever stayed. The room was nice, comfy and had all the accomidations we needed and then some. The staff was wonderful, as well. Without a doubt, I will be booking a room at the Block again soon!</p>

Our kids absolutely loved the place. The front desk folks (who made the effort of learning our kids' names) were great when it came to my kids checking out games and movies (for free!). The staff also listened to our kids share highlights from our time snowboarding. We stayed for 5 days and unlike most other vacations, our kids never got tired of being in the hotel room. They loved hearing the music every time we left the room - but we could not hear it in the room unless we stood right be the door and they cut the music off before we went to sleep.

The Block also has some sort of connection with the Log Cabin Restaurant down the road. Being Block guests got us a 20% discount on all our meals and our kids ate for free at breakfast!

We might have been able to save a little money on our room (not much) by staying at a cheaper place - but with no snow fall (only man-made) at Bear Mountain, staying at the Block became the highlight of a great trip. With all the extras you get with the Block, the value is unbelievable! We will be back.

I only planned to got to Big Bear for a day to go mountain biking, but when I saw The Block and all the hot girls hanging out there, I ended up staying for 3 days. They really do it well at The Block, cool people work and hang out there, the rooms were big and stylish, not like a motel room just to sleep in, but a cool place to hang out in with friends (or some of the ladies I saw there). No attitudes and lot's of stuff to do, I'll definetly be back, cant wait for snow!
