Better than expected! Was a good stopover point in our travels, we booked a room without much in the way of cooking and there’s not many good options nearby for groceries or to eat out- but that’s expected in such a quiet area. Would stay again

Great stay

Room was quaint and perfect for a couple. Bathroom had been remodeled. We ate at Bodie Mike’s, which was one block down. It was good with great service. Area was nice and overlooked Mono lake.

Clean room and comfortable bed.

The cheapest room was right next to 395. I did not mind noise but morning Sun through pseudo stein glass window was bit anointing. Clean room, comfortable bed.

First time staying here & it was lovely. I would suggest removing the chair from the room (room 6), and maybe reduce the outdoor lighting a bit, but overall a really awesome addition to Lee Vining & I would recommend your hotel.

The remodel of this hotel is great. I stayed here as a child and was sad to see it closed down for awhile. The new owners have done a beautiful job at making things so clean and cozy. I stayed in a room directly next to Highway 395, but even with the traffic there, I slept really well. I did use ear plugs, which helped.

Great location to Yosemite if not staying in the park. Parking is tight for large vehicles. Several dining options to choose from. Gas is expensive so fill up before you get there.

Room was great for my 3 nites. Parking is a little tight- not sure much can be done abt that. I do wish there was a little table for working on a laptop. Otherwise very satisfied customer!

Clean and comfortable. Quick access to Yosemite. Updated shower with great water pressure. Basic rooms but all you need to get you close to the park entrance!

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
The property is very small; seven rooms and six parking spots. It worked out for me because I was always able to find a spot to park. The room is spacious and so is the bathroom. The refrigerator worked great. And there was housekeeping service daily, which I did not expect since Covid and most properties no longer do that daily service. Downside: it would have been nice to know ahead of time that none of the rooms have air conditioning. There was a ceiling fan above the bed and a desk fan on the desk, but it's 2025 and I didn't realize there were still motel properties without AC. Leaving your window open all night means you'll listen to the semi trucks roaring through town all night long.

I must admit I was a little skeptical when I arrived. The motel is obviously very old. We grabbed our key from the bulletin board, no onsite office. Found the room around back, parallel parked in front of the door. Very pleasantly surprised once I went inside. It was updated with a cute kitchenette, nice beds. The bathroom could use more shelves or towel bars. Besides that it was perfect for our stay.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
My room's door was 6 inches from the public sidewalk, adjacent to a busy highway, and it did not even close properly. No air-conditioning, no front desk (place is owned by the same people as another motel down the street, so you have to go there for help, which they are unwilling to give). They just put your key on a outdoor wall with your name on it; thatls check in. Not safe!! Don't stay here!!

It was a cute and cozy motel. However the room description did match the room. It was extremely warm and they didn’t have an air conditioner.
