The motel is a great example of a 1950s small town road hotel that has been undated and maintained. The whole idea is a comfortable place to stay and not super fancy. Great bed, big bathroom with tub/shower, coffee pot, frig, microwave, 100 stations on a smaller LCD TV. There are free bbqs in a common area if you want to grill. The store where you check in is pure country grocery store but with a great deli and very cold beer. Fill up at the store Chevron gas station and price was lower than other Chevrons. We stayed one night in November 2023 and loved it. But if you need more than the basics, keep move on up the road 40 miles to Bishop.
