Not the best remodeling. Bed was satisfactory. Staff wad pleasant.
After 5 days in the backcountry this was just what I needed. Comfy bed, (2 pillow options for softness). Had fridge and microwave which I didn't need or use but was nice to have for some folks. Soap in dispensers was great. No shampoos which was ok because I'd brought my own, but just need to know in advance. I had flown into Bishop airport so originally picked this motel for the free airport shuttle. I had a friend pick me up but needed a ride back to the airport which was supplied for me with no hassle and greatly appreciated. Since I didn't have a car it was also nice to have various food options within walking distance as the Main Street/ hwy 395 was just 1/2 block away.
The thunderbird is a work in progress. Will be fabulous when completed. The location is priceless. Off the main road. The room is super clean and large. The covers are way too heavy for summer but perfect for winter. Bath soap be nice. The shades are total blackout / perfect, every hotel should have them. Within walking to everything. Good stay.
Office smells like curry, horrible parking, unfriendly person at counter, junk and trash against building, sidewalks dirty, food left in microwave, washcloths stained, had my own pillow thank goodness.
The vibe from the get was negative and sure enough. The owners very unprofessional. Would not recommend and would stay clear. There’s a reason they are a cheap ish motel.
