    Basic and affordable room, I wish there were more like these!
    Andrew H.

    Chill out ya'll! If you want a chocolate on your pillow and tons of useless amenities you'll never use, this is NOT the place for you. This is a $50-$60/night motel. That's it. You get what you pay for. Stuff is kinda old. Stuff should maybe be replaced. But it's a cool/warm (depending on time of year) place to sleep and it's food for a hot shower. I rolled in at 3am, busted from a late night of mountain climbing. This place is exactly what I needed. They have physical keys, it's that kind of old-school place. I wish there were more motels like this, they seem to be drying up all across America.

    DON NOT GO HERE. Mr. Patel you should be ashamed!! My room should of never been rented out for the night me and my wife were there. The gal up front was very nice. The pool was half empty and green, but site said pool. No coffee in the AM and no food, thank goodness as the room where the new ice maker is was a mess with a toaster. Our new microwave nice, but the glass plate was full of cheese, old towels were top of the closet, bathroom window was not lockable, chair and towels were stained. It was somewhat of a mess. You did a great job with the brand new fridge, micro, and coffee maker and the ice machine but that is just a start. See pics. We were not comfortable at all at your property. Again, the gal up front was nice but I wasn't going to say anything as it seemed we were the only ones at the hotel at check in. That wasn't the case as the fair was in town and late at night I think the property was over 1/2 full. We were on ground floor a few doors down from the front lobby.

    Pool in serious disrepair.

    When searching online for a room, the advertisement specifically said double room, 2 double beds and the pictures showed us a suite, with a kitchenette. This was perfect since we were traveling with our grown daughter. When we arrived to check in, the room is a SINGLE room with 2 double beds. FALSE ADVERTISING! The person at the front tried to make it right (kudos to him) by giving us 2 king rooms. We had been on the road all day and just wanted to rest so we stayed. We do appreciate the managers attempt to make the situation right. But for the price of the room, really disappointed. The pool is in serious disrepair and looks as if it hasnt been maintained in years, the pool amenity needs to be deleted off the listing. Travelers beware, call first to confirm or better yet just stay away from this property.

    I was surprised when I saw the other reviews on Yelp, I was instantly impressed with my room and the front desk service. Newer tiled bathroom, large room, heat lamp outside the shower, very clean... and this was all for $52 by the way. That's half the price of the average room in Bishop. I've stayed in a decent amount of the hotels in this town and this is the nicest I've seen yet. For the lowest price... Maybe it's after the renovations mentioned, but for the price, this place absolutely deserves 5 stars. For the record, there were zero bedbugs during my stay :)

    BEWARE- Eventhough you disclose you have brought a pet, you will be verbally abused by the manager for her short-comings!
    Tracy M.

    FEMALE MANAGER, MINISHA, IS VERBALLY ABUSIVE TO SENIORS. I booked this motel through Booking.com and indicated a pet would be brought. Upon checking in, we also indicated we brought a dog- see pic attached. To no fault of our own, the under aged worker did not charge us a pet fee, however bc we did our part disclosing that, when asked if we paid the pet fee, we replied, "yes." A day later the female manager, Minisha, pounded on the motel door. She yelled at my father, in his 70s, and told him to get out or pay $90 cash. We paid $75 cash, no receipt given which is government fraud bc we know that money wasn't documented revenue. If you are curious what the $75 is for, we were told the entire room would need to be cleared out and cleaned top to bottom bc we had a 12lb hypoallergenic poodle in the room! Upon returning a few hours later, the room was being cleaned the exact same way all the others were cleaned. Later that night, we stopped in again and the current occupant let us take a look. From the pictures attached, you can see that this management couple pocketed the money, defrauded the government, and Room 112 is still contaminated by out poodle! If you enjoyed this review, you can see another on Google Reviews, Better Business Bureau, Trip Advisor, and the owner, Richard Hoffman, has been notified! Like we said, you can pay money to advertise, but word of mouth/internet is a business breaker!

They do not provide trailer parking, but there's a park across the street with RV parking. The hotel is gorgeous with a rustic, elevated, cabin feel. Has a small creek in the middle of it with relaxing chairs and fire pits. The Jacuzzi was also very lovely, we spent a very lovely afternoon /evening there. We also had a pet friendly room that accommodated our 2 small dogs. They have areas for the dogs to go potty, which is awesome. They also have an outstanding lobby bar / lounging are that was very relaxing. Diego the bartender was outstanding on both separate times we stayed there. The food is delicious. I highly recommend the Caesar salad with grilled chicken, the mushroom pizza and the barbecue chicken pizza. The bed was hard and uncomfortable, and there was hard water on the bathroom, shower glass, but it happens. Some people prefer soft beds. Some people prefer firmer beds. I understand that. Yes, it's on the more expensive side, but it's a gorgeous hotel and people shouldn't complain. If it's too much then don't book it ! The cancellation policies & prices are upfront so I don't understand why people complain about that.

    One star. I had a reservation, but I never even set foot on the property…read more Our upcoming trip to the area was disrupted by the Rock Fire in Inyo County, forcing us to change our travel plans. Before booking, travelers should understand that Wayfinder appears to enforce its cancellation policy even when a major wildfire prevents the original trip from taking place. The hotel offered to convert my one night reservation into a credit, but only if I selected and confirmed new travel dates within 48 hours. In my view, that is not a reasonable accommodation. When travel is unexpectedly disrupted by a natural disaster, it can take weeks or months to determine when a replacement trip will be possible. A more customer-friendly approach would be to issue a credit valid for 6-12 months and allow guests to book new dates when their plans are finalized. We also discussed moving the reservation forward by one night to accommodate our revised itinerary. While I understand that weekend rates are higher, the additional cost would have been several hundred dollars, making that option impractical. As a result, I lost the cost of one night's stay and will not be booking with Wayfinder in the future. This was my first experience with the company, and unfortunately it left me with the impression that there is little flexibility for guests facing extraordinary circumstances beyond their control. Management already has my contact information. I hope you'll reconsider and issue a credit that can be used within the next year, rather than requiring a new reservation to be booked within 48 hours.

    We stayed at this Best Western in Bishop after staying at several other Best Western hotels during…read moreour road trip, and unfortunately this was by far the worst experience. The first impression wasn't great. The front doors to the lobby were dirty, and the entryway leading to our room smelled strongly of urine. There was also dried dog waste that appeared to have been there for some time. Our room had ants, which was disappointing, especially considering the nightly rate of $232. The breakfast was also below expectations. The eggs were runny, the sausage was overcooked, and the coffee was some of the worst we've had during our trip. The biggest disappointment was the customer service. Ben at the front desk was rude and condescending, which made an already disappointing stay even worse. After staying at numerous Best Western properties on this trip, we know the level of quality the brand is capable of. Unfortunately, this location fell far short of those standards. At $232 a night, we expected a much cleaner property, better customer service, and a more enjoyable experience. We would not choose to stay here again.Do Not Recommend!!

I'm surprised it was rated an overall 3 star, it is definitely 2 star category. The breakfast was fine though like others in the comments stated - the eggs were terrible. The waffle was good and the yogurt with toppings. Coffee was fine. The pro and con was that the AC. It keeps the room cool but is so damn loud which is nice because you also can't hear your neighbors having sex. The one thing this hotel needs to work on. As they allow dogs, which is great, please create a place for them to pee and poop. As it is now, you have to walk them where the cars are parked and all there is - is dirt and rocks and very little space for them to do their business. How about take a small portion of the parking lot and create an enclosure with fake grass that can be hosed down and have little poop bags? Because the hotel does such a poor job of no grass for the dogs, dogs poop along the area and leave the poop. This should really be addressed. It's frustrating.

This was our first time and we had our dog so finding a pet friendly hotel that's decent, is always a challenge. This one checked all the boxes. It's close to the bakery and walking distance to other fast food and eateries. Parking can be tricky if you get there too late. But there were more spaces on the other side that we didn't know about until we walked our dog. There's also a bowling alley nearby. We only stayed for one night and it really was more like a 12- hour stay but it was enough to get rested, fed and our room was comfortable. The breakfast selection was pretty well stocked.

Pros: The entrance is nice. I can tell they upgraded it recently. Looks clean and I can see the effort made to make it nice. They have water and ice in the lobby, which is nice. The fitness room is decent for a motel. Breakfast isn't much but it's filling. It works. It's toast, cereal, bagels, egg whites, oatmeal, yogurt, bananas, apples, milk, peanut butter, jelly, cream cheese and coffee. It's not gourmet but it works. The breakfast place is nice, clean and upgraded. I do feel like they try their best to make this place comfortable. The effort shows. I love that the entrance to the rooms is indoors. It's walking distance to restaurants and the park. I'm assuming this is the downtown. I had a dog and they were very friendly and accommodating. I love that they have a bathtub. I have toddlers so it was a nice way to bathe them. Plenty of parking. Cons: One of the major disappointments for me is the wifi. It's extremely slow. This is a big major point for me because I have to work on my laptop and when videos aren't loading it's difficult to work. The doors look old and outdated. It just lowers the aesthetic. There are no elevators, which I already knew. I can overlook that though, my main compliant is the WiFi, especially for the price.
