We stayed here for one day during our camping trip. We couldn’t be happier about our decision. This is a motel type of property but it’s way better than the typical motel. It’s very clean; the beds are comfortable, bathroom clean; shower has good water pressure; laundry facilities are good; even the breakfast is fine (some reviews are critical about the breakfast, but to us, bagels, French toast, cereal, yogurt, and serviceable coffee is very acceptable); staff are very friendly (the whole Bishop is a friendly town)

Overall, the room was good for the price. There were maintenance issues though. -The air conditioner is very loud and was barely able to keep up by running constantly. This is a waste of electricity over a newer, more efficient unit. -The sink faucet was backwards. Hot was on the right and cold was on the left. -When showering, most of the water came out of the spigot, not the shower head.

Perfect for exploring surrounding area. Long distance driving to see the extraordinary sights all day, so I appreciated a Vons around the corner and okay dinning options that were walkable.

The front desk staff is shockingly rude and unwelcoming, as if guests are an inconvenience. The outrageous price they charge for these run-down rooms should be illegal. The place reeks of stale odor, and the refrigerator and air conditioner roar so loud you’ll wish you slept in your car.

No Complaints

Everything about the room and the hotel is just fine (well, the pool needs to be redone before next season). Staff members were all friendly and helpful.

Nice Hotel

The beds & pillows were very comfortable & the air conditioning was great in the August heat. My only complaint was that it was hard to maintain hot water in the shower but other than that our experience was positive! The staff was very professional & polite!

We had an amazing experience staying here. The hotel was clean and quaint. We brought our dog and loved the outdoor area they had for potty. It was spacious, so no dogs were forced to interact accidentally. The beds were comfortable, and the rooms had wonderful AC. My only minor complaint would be the bathroom- the shower curtain was almost a foot away from the tub, causing a significant amount of water spillage. Other than that, it was a pleasant stay!
