    Three stars for bed comfort. Zero for window fit, locking, road noise. Entering 117, right on the main drag, the door seal is in disrepair. Everything is old. The floor sags as you enter. Nice having kitchen to warm up food. Fridge and freeze work well as does stove. Don't expect anything newer than old iks for pots and kitchen ware. Tv worked well. Bathroom sink small area for cosmetics. Tub was newer and shower worked great. Soap, shampoo and conditioner dispensers are cheap. The conditioner dispenser didn't work. The soap dispenser came off in my hand while showering. This place needs a total overhaul with new windows, doors etc. Popcorn in lobby was a nice touch. But hey, it's a motel in Bishop.

    DISGUSTING! If I could give zero stars I would.  I read reviews before I booked. I expected an older motel and reviews made me think it was old, but quaint and clean. It was NOT clean. At arrival the lobby door was locked so we had to check in behind the desk. I almost walked out at that moment. There were candy wrappers on the floor and it smelled like cat pee. But I was trying to be positive.  When we walked in the room, there were crumbs on the floor all around the foot of the bed, hair and black spots on the blanket, and ants in the bathroom.  The front desk person was leaving and we let her know that the room wasn't clean and she said she would send housekeeping.  There was no housekeeping so she basically lied to our face. I had some cleaner and paper towels in my car cleaned up the ants in the bathroom floor and came up with a bunch of hair. There was a large clump of hair in the shower. The windows didn't lock,  the microwave was disgusting.  I checked other hotels and there were no vacancies so we had to make the best of it. We pulled back the covers to the bed and there was a dirty piece of tape stuck to the flat sheet. We went to Big 5 and bought blankets to sleep on. I felt so dirty and uncomfortable.  Luckily I had brought my own pillow. Parking is tight and to exit we had to back into traffic. With the roof being worked on it was extremely tight. The best part of our stay was leaving.

    Comfy and clean

    Don't judge a book by it's cover! This place is very clean and quaint. Will come again

    Dog friendly, tattoo wild at heart friendly. Checked us in late passed midnight. Room was clean and it appeared freshly remodeled. Came with microwave mini frig and mini coffee maker. Manager received us with a big smile and he appeared to be happy to take us in. We got a big clean bed with lots of hot water. Lots of big white fluffy towels for my red bloody hair. Such a shame I had to wash my hair and I left those towels looking like they were dragged all over the civil war battle field. LOL No carpet only synthetic wooden floors. That alone was an extra perk. Room service is professional! I am a fan so if you are flying by stop in and check it out.

    Arrived at this hotel with high expectations on 12/29/19. Upon arrival, room was not ready at check in time. Came back 45 minutes later and was checked in to room next to front office. Was charged over $300 even though reservation was for ~$250. After 2 hours of incredibly loud noise by the hotel staff, blatant drug use and dealing next door, to the point of causing concern for safety, we had to leave the hotel. The staff was loud and abusive. Was not offered any refund even though we didn't stay even 1 night. Owner was rude and would not offer remedy. Had to find last minute accommodations elsewhere. Still haven't received response or refund. Filed a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission for fraud and failure to deliver services on 12/31. Stay very far away! This place may have been nice once upon a time, but the owners have turned it into a fleabag slum and will try to take you for every penny they can! Will update this review if hotel provides remedy.

    Grimy bathroom floor

    Looked great on booking.com, and I liked the idea that we could stay away from the main drag. However, it was pretty bad. I specifically asked for a no pet no smoking room due to terrible allergies and asthma but I could hardly breathe in the room from the chemical smell. When notified, the manager immediately brought a high powered fan and ventilated the room for us. It was about 80% better after that. I asked what kind of cleaner it was and he said it was essential oils sprayed around the room--an idea of the owner. The bed was clean. Nothing else was...please see the photos. In addition, there was only one bulb in the ceiling fan, no tissues, grimy nightstands, a non-functioning smoke alarm and a hole in the door big enough for mice. Thankfully I did not open any drawers like other reviewers because I really would have hated to find any droppings. The flies in the room were bad enough! Diane left an envelope for gratuity, but the room didn't meet our expectations. Positives: The heater worked well on a chilly night, the TV was fine and the bed was comfortable. Recommend: Inspect the room before accepting.

    Wayfinder was an oasis for us after hot weather and our dog's paw injury made us abandon our…read morecamping site a day early. We arrived in town at 7 PM on a Friday looking for last-minute, pet friendly lodging. After seeing a few dire motels, we debated driving through the night home, but thankfully we stumbled upon Wayfinder. The walk in rates are reasonable given what you get. A great bar and dinner area with a super comfy and cozy lobby, delicious free buffet breakfast, super cozy beds, a beautiful creek with chairs and outdoor seating, gardens with secluded benches, a pool, a hot tub, and free chocolate chip cookies. It was super easy to eat outside with our dog and still enjoy the amenities. They also gave us a treat bag upon checkin which was very sweet. I'm not sure what else you could hope for in a small mountain town, but I'd definitely return!

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.

I'm so glad we stayed here. We were two adults and one child and stayed in a private family room with one bed and a bunk bed. The bunk beds have little curtains which our kiddo liked. I didn't totally trust that the barrier on the top bunk was high enough to prevent my kiddo from falling off so I had her sleep in the bottom bunk. The room was small but we knew that and it was enough space for three of us. We loved how it was decorated down to the individually wrapped towels in the bathroom. No TV which I also liked and forced us to hang out together! We were on the second floor and there were comfy rocking chairs on the deck where we sat at night and enjoyed our wine. We were able to borrow the wine glasses in the community kitchen which was very convenient. We also spent time on the couches outside the kitchen and the Adirondack chairs in the yard - just a lot of open places to hang out which was nice. The airstream store is super cute. We didn't get a chance to try their coffee but did buy one of the treats and also some gifts from the gift shop and played yard games in front. Schatt's bakery is next door which was a nice bonus and we grabbed breakfast there in the morning and brought it back. The entire property was clean and well maintained. Walking distance to the bowling alley where we went for a couple hours to play and also get a delicious steak (yes from the bowling alley cafe - no joke!). We'd definitely stay here again when passing through Bishop.

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.

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!!
