Exceeded expectations after reading some of the older reviews. Bathroom seems to have been remodeled recently. Good deal for price in convenient location for travelers.. Street noises can be heard in room. read more

Checked in at 6 left at 12:30 Place is dirty (we are all sketched out about bed bugs) sink would not drain, our room wreaked of cigarette smoke (probably from trap house like people living below) someone tried breaking down our hotel door around 11:30pm. The eventually kicked in the door across from us. Fighting ensued over the 3 hours while we contacted police twice the fighting continued. no one in front office, no security. It seems as if multiple people live on property. Very unsafe. Very dirty Asked for refund as we didn't feel safe and was only offered another room 20-30 feet across parking lot. Spend a little more and save yourself the trouble of not getting sleep in a rock slab of a bed with drug induced fighting. Disgusted with our experience and lack of accountability on the hotel. No help or understanding that we were not interested in being near the unsafe fighting, vehicles speeding in and out of the parking lot and the dangerous situation Our family was in (children with us) Don't stay here. I can't understand why they are in business. I'll be contacting the health department as well. read more

I shower had black mold all over the ceiling. They did redo part of the bathroom, though it looks like they tried to paint over the mold previously. the heater worked well yet sound like a gremlin was in it when it was on. It's a nice place to stay for the price. read more

Spend an extra 20$ and stay in another momo. $100 a night. Definitely get what you pay for here! Bathroom smelled like weed, even after it was cleaned. That was the highlight of our stay. WiFi didnt work for even a second. Pubic hair in the bathroom, on the windowsill. How?!?! Neighbors are loud and their dogs barked a lot.. The just stagnant mess everywhere and poor poor POOR landscaping makes this place look like an absolute dump. None of this is shocking. Cheapest place in town but next time I'll sleep in my car. read more

This place came up on Travelocity so we (me and two kids) booked it even though it was a single king bed. Room was reasonably clean except my daughter noticed a used lollipop on the floor near the bed implying the housekeeping is not so thorough. I thought overall the bedroom and bathroom were acceptably clean otherwise. Parking lot not large enough for all visitors but easy street parking so not a big deal. Ice machine didn't work, pool was out of service. Small refrigerator and microwave were adequate. There seemed to be enough outlets to plug in chargers etc. The room was large enough we were able to inflate a full size mattress so that works. McDonalds across the street and Whiskey Creek just a short walk further so nice food options. Right on main drag in Bishop but not too noisy. The front desk is not always manned, ie sometimes you call and there is no answer. Despite shortcomings, I would stay again given the pros and decent price during a holiday weekend. read more

Save your money, you're better off sleeping in your car. Booked this for a quick fishing trip this weekend, you get what you pay for I guess. Be prepared to wear shoes while you're in the room at all times, or your feet will turn black from the dirty floor. Room smells like sweat & BO. WiFi doesn't work, even though they advertise working, free WiFi. The walls, doors, floorboards, are covered in dirt, absolutely disgusting. The room is falling apart, there are chips in the paint and wood all throughout the room. We had to sleep with something stuffed under our door because there was such a large gap, letting in all of the outside smells, sounds, and bugs. I brought my own coffee to make, but they had no filters so I had to use their prepackaged coffee, but when I opened it I saw it was covered in mold. Got my coffee from McDonald's instead. Gum was stuck under the ledge of our headboard as well. We had to sleep with only a sheet because it was the only "blanket" that was somewhat "clean". The main blanket had some mysterious, crusty stains on it. Remote was missing its back, it was covered in tape. Husband felt something on his arm, it was a cockroach. Plus the neighbors are loud, stay up late and talk outside of your window while smoking cigarettes, and let their dogs bark as long as they want. The people who run this place are lucky my husband is so kind, and stopped me from telling them how horrid their establishment really is. Just do yourself a favor, spend the money and get a nice hotel! read more

I just say, thank goodness for this Motel. We stopped in town on a road trip. This was the 4th of 5th place we stopped looking for a room. The town was almost sold out. So thankful they had 1 last room! This motel is funky, in a good way. We were on the second floor, and I loved the odd shape of the room. The old wood planks on the walls. The room had 2 beds and was a decent size. Shower had great water pressure. Area was very quiet. Older bed, but pretty comfortable. It was a quick stop but worked out well for a good night sleep. read more

Clean,comfortable and affordable. Townhouse is my go to hotel in Bishop. The managers are nice. Rooms are clean. It's no frills but if you just need a place to sleep, it works. They just redid their pool and are renovating the rooms. read more

We booked the motel on a holiday weekend with not much availability in the town. Reviews were average, price was reasonable. The first night my wife and I had a horrible night's sleep due to the entire bed frame being broken and collapsing in the middle. See photo for room 34. The next morning I asked for another room because we were staying for 2 nights. The manager said he needed to wait for the cleaning crew and he would let us know by 4 PM. When we returned from our excursion, he gave us a new room. So we moved all of our stuff into another room (plus 2 kids). Since the new room was cold (it was down in the 20s at night) we put the heater on. Within about 5 minutes my 9-year old says "something is burning". He was right near the heater by the window and when I looked, I noticed arcing and sparking and smoke coming out of the outlet that the air conditioning/heating unit was plugged into. Risking getting shocked myself, I immediately unplugged the unit from the outlet. After the smoke dissipated I looked at it. The outlet had melted and was probably minutes from causing a fire in the room and eventually burning the entire hotel down if no one was in the room to notice and take action. See melted outlet plug photo room 21. It took 30 minutes to get the maintenance guy there, who promptly said the room is a fire hazard and said no one can stay there. He didn't even attempt to fix it and started arguing with me when I showed him the shoddy workmanship with the grounding plug, especially since it put my family in danger. Since the entire town was sold out and there was only one room left in the hotel (with only one bed) we were forced to squeeze in there. In the third room, room 20, I noticed the sink coming off the wall in the bathroom, the unfinished wall/tile work, and the missing smoke alarm in the ceiling (isn't that illegal?). I found the smoke alarm under the TV cabinet with the battery removed. See photos for room 20 I will never recommend this hotel to anyone. I wanted my money back. After checking out the next morning, I was told that all I would be receiving as far as a refund was 50% off of one night's stay. So I paid 150 bucks for a bed that was broken and 75 bucks to put my family in danger. What a joke this place is. Stay away! read more

Visited 5/25/2018 Nice small motel. Very friendly staff. Nice clean small rooms. Comfortable Beds. Nice pool area. It just happened to be Memorial day weekend and The Mule Days Festival. The busiest day of the year also the highest prices for a room. All in all it's nice being my only choice. Would I stay here again? Perhaps but not for this price. To be fair, this is a good 3 1/2 Star Motel. Also plenty of good places to eat near by. Enjoy. read more

I cannot believe this place has a 3.5 star rating. We checked in, the hotel owner had the office locked up at 2:35 pm when I went to check in. After looking they the windows, he saw me and unlocked the door. Friendly man, told us our room was a newly refinished room, #9 when we walked it, it was basic, Barr bones, no frills room. It was freshly painted, had new flooring but hastily installed. All the light fixtures and door knobs were old and non working. Who puts a dusty coffee maker on a nightstand? The doorknob on the closet almost fell off. See pic. The bathroom had a motions sensor which went on and off any weird times. The water pressure was almost nil. My wife said it was almost impossible to wash out the soap in her hair. No pressure in the sink either, hard to brush your teeth. Seems like the owner is trying to cut corners at every angle. We paid for 2 nights, after the first night we said we should leave and get another room elsewhere, but we figured we wouldn't get our money back so we came back later that night to find room service came in and replaced the towels, but didn't make the bed. Our side of our room was a truck with the wheel and front end off. Guys working on it. The hotel only had 6-7 other cars at night, and the roof was missing tiles. The building needed painting and the pool was STILL under construction! Weird!! That was the last straw, we packed it up and went to the holiday inn across the street and had a better nights sleep! Lesson learned! read more

Bishop Town House Motel - Closet door, room 9 - Hotels Near Me - Bishop, California

This motel isn't new or fancy but it's clean enough and had everything I needed. Best of all, checking in was extremely fast and easy. I'll stay here anytime I need to work in the area. read more

It's clean. Convenient parking. Good for resting. Perfect for what we needed at 11:00pm.

Pro's: It's clean, it's affordable, it's cheap, staff are friendly, water is hot. Con's: Water pressure/volume is severely lacking, pillows are much to bloated and firm (I wish I could cut them in two). Good bet if you're looking for last-minute lodging in the area since this place is not listed on most of the hotel-booking platforms. read more

Zero stars if I could. I didn't even spend a night here since after a few hours of checking in I found a bedbug on my pillow after sitting up. Contained it in a plastic cup and showed it to front desk. Woman who was working front desk showed little concern or any reaction at all and only offered another room which I declined and let her know I was leaving because I'm not comfortable staying at a place that I now know has bedbugs. When I asked if she could help book another motel for the night (it was past 11pm at this point) she just said that there's motels outside on this street. I asked for a refund and she said they could not refund me because I booked through my credit card travel rewards program. However, my credit card was able to dispute it and they "reluctantly agreed to refund for the cancellation" according to the representative that helped me. BE WARNED IT IS THE CHEAPEST MOTEL IN THE AREA FOR A REASON! Do not stay here unless you want little hitchhikers to come home with you. read more

Bishop Town House Motel - Brown bedbug on top of pillow - Hotels Near Me - Bishop, California

I just called got a price then said I wanted to book the room the guy said okay then hung up on me.

Very dated cosmetics on the outside, as well inside. Don't let that discourage you!! It was clean, piping hot water & Air served its purpose on very chilly Christmas weekend!! We came under the impression of one certain amenity and was told that was not the case. She could have easily turned us away & we'd all lose out (or maybe not, had we gone further) but she told us as long as we kept quiet (I know unheard of to ask right) bottom line she let us slide and we stayed a couple days and everything worked out perfectly!! Kudos for great service & being so understanding!! It's your standard motel, tv, fridge, microwave, bed(s) and a small table w/chair. Bathroom standard size, but the shower not so average as it was pretty roomy and pressure was excellent- hell made me wish I had a shower & water pressure like it at home. It was pretty quiet too and right near everything! Best part is the view you get walking behind it! Especially fresh overnight snow- priceless!! Recommend if you want a warm clean & safe place to stay. I think they had continental breakfast, but you also got Mickey D's Birdseye view across the way. read more

Monday June 24 2019 When I work outta town I try to get the absolute best place for my money. I'm not looking for resort style comfort or other amenities that I'd seek if I were on vacation, I'm simply looking for a comfortable bed, cleanliness, good water pressure and quality climate control. I pack a very lightweight custom sleeping bag, my own pillow & disinfectant spray for bathroom and remote. Yes sounds weird but something that works for me being outta town 2-3 out of the year for the last 20+ years. With all that said,,,,, ACTUAL REVIEW HERE After spending 30-45 minute physically checking all the motel/hotels in Bishop for prices and asking to see the rooms of each of them I found prices from $50-$190 per night. At least 2 others were more expensive and didn't seem as accommodating for me. At $320 for 5 nights Town House Motel was my choice. It's obvious that the new owners are slowly making improvements here such as bathroom tile, new mattresses, flat screen tv's, a sparkling clean pool and what currently appears that damaged wood is being replaced. From what I can see here at this time is a financially based pace of improvement that I myself can relate as a multiple home owner that seems to always making improvements around the houses. They also have microwave and small fridges in the rooms too. I believe I understood the desk man say the Ice machine recently broke, so that was a bummer, can't fill lunch box before work. I'd say it's probably located in a perfect spot for walking to everything imaginable too. I stayed in room 12 and everything worked great. Oh and a coffee pot too Friendly staff as well! If I was up here hiking for hours, off-roading, fishing and site seeing I'd prolly come here too for good rest ‍ other wise I'd be up the mountain camping. Roll Tide and Colorado River Rats OUT I gave this place a deserving 5 stars for honest hard work and effort. Not to mention to try to erase previous owners lack of. So with that said,,,,,,solid 3.5 stars in my opinion. This place IS NOT A DUMP. read more

Ok, so I 5-star'ed this. It's not a 5-star hotel, but it is very very nice for the price. After a week on the trail out of a local pack station we were very ready for hot showers, and a place to rest our head before heading home the next day. We showed up without a reservation (big chain hotel across the street messed up our reservation (ya, got a refund because they had the clerk on camera messing it up)). Checked in quick, room was nice, water was hot, and we got a good night's sleep. Oh and saved $160 per room over the chain place. Townhouse will be our go-to on future trips. read more

Love this place! Two friends and I were hiking a 300-mile portion of the Pacific Crest Trail, so we were pretty tired and beat up. After dipping into a few other hotels to compare prices, the charm of the Townhouse Motel won us over immediately - so did the price. The host, Jim Brummel, was quick to offer us a $5-per-night discount because we were hikers, as well as a $10 discount for paying with cash. When the TV in our room didn't work, Mr. Brummel did his best to fix it, and gave us a free night at the motel to compensate. The hotel has free coffee in the morning, a great pool, clean and comfortable beds and a great historic story. Some famous celebrities like John Wayne and Slim Pickins' stayed at the hotel often, and their signed photos are up on the walls. You're right in the middle of downtown, close to a VONS grocery and lots of great restaurants. Great place! read more

250$ a night for a Mule Days weekend night and an absolute DUMP! Not even a bedside lamp (someone must have stolen it and they never replaced it). Dark and gloomy. Never again. I understand if this place is normally 70- 80 bucks a night but this much money for what I had was a shame. read more

Vintage, but the rooms are clean and the beds are comfortable. Also, it's the most affordable motel in Bishop. The Motel 6 was charging $180. The Motel 6!!! Anyways, we just needed a place to sleep and this served the purpose. Plenty of hot water, air conditioning works well, and a newer flat-screen TV. Free and fast Wi-Fi. The pool is currently drained, but this property is really old and is currently undergoing renovation. I'm sure the pool will be fixed up and reopened soon. Cool vintage sign out front. read more

Stayed there on 1/30/2010 VERY friendly people who run this motel. You don't need to go to one of the major chains to get a good room at a good price. Enjoy this place for what it is. And its a gem of a place. The rooms get cold in this time of year, but you can work with that. I would definately stay here again and would recommend it to anyone who'd passing through town. read more

Okay, let me start by saying I would only suggest staying here of you've been tent camping in the sierras for a week. Otherwise, GO SOOMEWHERE ELSE!! I stayed here after tent camping and I was glad to be in a normal bed. BUT I have to give this place a low rating because it's dirty. No, not dirty, FILTHY. The room is coated with a very thick layer of dust that even a wash cloth and water won't help. I had to remI've the sheets and blankets and use my sleeping bag because I could see the hair left from other guests. The walls have not been cleaned and there are footprints an hand prints everywhere. I was afraid to walk barefoot because the carpet was so disgusting. The lamp shades has stains from god knows what! The blinds and curtains were so dusty and after one night of sleeping in that room my allergies were bothering me. They give you one thin blanket, a sheet, and the scratchiest piece of wool I've ever felt. The air conditioner just blows more dust into the room because the filter hadn't been changed since the motel was opened, adding to the smell and allergies. Overall, I pray to god someone shuts this place down or it gets turned over to new management because I really feel this place is going to be the epicenter for some massive outbreak of disease. read more

Great stay!! Beds are comfortable and room is cleans Kind family owned little motel just outside of mammoth! Reasonable nightly rates and small cold cereal breakfast with coffee and juice! Thank you for a great stay!!! read more

My grandmother was kind enough to purchase a room for my boyfriend and I this weekend. All of us had no idea what it was like. Thank God my boyfriend was with me, or I would have been terrified to stay here. For starters, when I checked in-- the front desk area smelled like cigarettes and looked like someone's living room. The kid who was the front desk attendant looked like he was 16, but was very sweet. Second, the sheets and pillow cases were dirty, the shower drain was plugged and there was not a phone in the room. Loud AC which is good for blocking road noise, but blew dusty air out. Third, it seems like certain guests are actually....tenants who look very suspicious. I will say, it was a very quiet evening for a Saturday night. That was the best part. When I checked out at 7:30 a.m., the front desk area was closed but there was a "key drop." It was literally a box outside where you drop your keys into. Anyone can walk up to it and grab a key..... not safe. All in all--quiet place, but very sketchy. read more

Clean, cozy room for the best price on a busy Halloween weekend. Staff/owners were friendly. Ideal location, also. If you just need a safe and comfortable place to crash because you'll be busier outside of your room, then this is the place to be! read more

So much cheaper than Motel 6 and Best Western and you get the same! We swam, had a refrigerator, microwave, and AC in our room! We saved $50+ by staying here!! Owners were very nice :) read more

We tried out this motel for the first time coming back from a hiking trip in mid September, and i was pleasantly surprised. I was actually expecting worse since the cost was surprisingly lower than any other motels in the area.The people working there were extremely friendly and informative about the fishing hot spots in the area. We took their advice about a fishing location and my boyfriend ended up catching a 5 lb trout! :) The room was very cute and cozy, and i love anything that's cute, cozy, and vintage! The furniture was a bit outdated, so if you share the same tastes as me then this is the place to go. It felt like i traveled back in time. I loved the king sized bed and the little patio area with chairs for the reasonable rate of $55 a night. They also have a community swimming pool as well as bbq grilling area. It's really close to all of the main restaurants, so everything is pretty much walking distance. The only bad thing about this place if anything, would be the amount of dust the air conditioner was blowing out when turned on. This probably wouldn't be an issue if you're staying in the winter, but since I'm allergic to dust, my sneezing was a bit out of control. Other than that, I would definitely visit again in the future. read more

Was pretty skeptical about our NYE stay here but im glad we booked it. The best value for your buck. The least expensive place in town. And lets be real.. unless youre going to live in your room.. all you need is a warm place and a hot shower and we got both PLUS free wifi! Heres the long and short of it. Yes, the place needs some updating, and it looks like its a work in progress. HOWEVER, our room was cozy, rustic and HUGE. We got room 23 and the room had a walk in closet! Came with a microwave, fridge and a coffee maker. Room was clean and shower was piping hot. I would recommend and i Would stay there again! read more

I was a bit skeptical, but the rooms were in good condition for the price and the service was super friendly. It's a nice family owned business who found us a pair of rooms last minute at a good rate, as we were a bit stranded. We got two rooms for a party of 8 and the beds were spacious enough to be comfortable for everyone. There are a lot of restaurants within walking distance too for anyone looking for a bite to eat (ask the manager for recommendations). All in all, a pretty great place. read more

Great for its price point. It's obviously not a luxury resort, but was good value and exceeded my expectations. They gave us a room on a holiday weekend when everything else in town was full, and didn't price-gouge us for it. At first we only planned to crash here briefly after a backpacking trip, but we enjoyed it enough that we ended up staying a second night. The bed was AMAZING if you prefer firm mattresses over drowning in memory foam. The room interior was shabby, but I didn't care - it was scrupulously clean and quite spacious, and even had a bit of character (kind of a cabin/grandpa's house vibe). We were worried there would be traffic noise because our room was right in the front, but with the windows closed it was totally fine. At first the air conditioner wasn't cooling properly, but the host was responsive and had a maintenance person come look at it right away, and it worked great the rest of the weekend. I would happily stay here again next time I'm in town. Don't leave valuables in your car in the lot - someone stole the ball hitch off our Jeep (who the hell steals a $20 ball hitch?!) - but based on some of the characters I saw roaming Main Street, I don't think this issue is specific to the hotel. read more
