I arrived at this motel in the middle of winter - very much out of season - to find it in the middle of being remodelled, so there was no office or any staff present on my arrival. Actually it looked as if it might be closed, and there was no key out for me to do self check-in as explained with the booking. However, I found a bell to ring and after just a few minutes a nice man came down and gave me my key. The room itself was clean and spacious, with a very comfy bed, kitchenette and plenty of hot water for a shower in the morning. Plus the heating was quite efficient so I managed to warm the room up despite the extremely cold temps outside in Jan at this altitude! I rated it Good not Excellent due to the slightly quirky check-in.

We had a "Senior" suite, I believe. It was nice and clean but a little cramped for table space. Beds were really great! Best motel bed yet. The plates and bowls were a fail though. They are plastic and can't be used in the microwave. It even says "do not use in microwave" on the bottom of them. Please replace with ceramics. Very interested to see how the front restoration turns out.

Very nice room, cute & well decorated. Good location in town. However, NO AC! They did provide fans for our room, but it was June, hot & uncomfortable. We had planned to stay for two nights, but left after one.

Overall good. I had stayed there before and got a spacious room with bath. I need a bath after long walks to take care of my back. the booking system did not seem to specify that I had booked a room with a bath and not a shower. I asked to change. The front desk person was picky about it and told me there were no vacancies. It seems that a few more towels could be added to the room, a box of kleenex and better shower products. They were cheap.

You know I really want to give this Motel a better rating. It was quaint, clean, room had everything we needed, My only issue was the bed was really REALLY FIRM! If you love super firm you will love this place. There’s no staff or check in. Your key is at the entrance to the property on a bulletin board with your name on it in an envelope with your receipt and everything you need to know. I just could get a good nights sleep because the bed was so firm. So, I personally have to give it the rating I did, but with a detailed explanation so you know it’s not because of a problem, just my preference. Thanks!

The location is very convenient to Yosemite and the lakes. The view of Mono Lake across the highway is truly wonderful in the late afternoon/evening. The October Super Moon over the lake was spectacular. The updates to this vintage motel are fine, the shower works well, and it is very well maintained and clean. Check in was fine though I never saw a human being. It is, however, the noisiest place I have ever experienced. The noise from the cars zooming by on US 395 sounds like jet planes taking off. There are earplugs on the nightstand next to the bed which is always a bad sign.
