I needed a room for the night before backpacking the next day. The room was clean and had all of the basic amenities. Nothing fancy, but excellent for the price. I would definitely stay there again. There was nothing that I disliked about the room.

Extremely convenient - probably best location for hikers. Chevron store (also the hotel check in desk) has all the gear and food you need. They even have some exotic options. Location is not very quiet but safe, AC works. 40 mins away from all the major trails

Front desk (gas station) was a little rushed and curt, check in and check out was a little odd. Overall decent room, and value. Would stay again in a pinch.

The Owner Ran Them All

The owner ran a couple of businesses - a gas station, a grocery store, a hardware store, a motel, a food truck, and a laundromat with showers. Therefore, we checked in at the grocery store. The room was clean. The bed was comfortable for a good night sleep. We asked for a quiet room and got one behind the store building. It did shield out lots of highway noise. We took a walk after dinner in the nice neighborhood.

Super fast check in. They just asked my name and handed me my key. Less than 30 seconds. The staff were super friendly and helpful. Checkin is at the general store in front of the rooms so you can get groceries and snacks as well as fuel all within feet of your room. Also prices room prices are very affordable compared to other locations in Bishop or Independence. I highly recommend
