Stephanie was AWESOME! We were running behind and she made sure to put our key in the afterhours and reassured us that all wouldbe ok. We called early in the day and again around 8 oclock ar night and she answereboth times very quickly and made us feel comfortable. The room was very nice and we enjoyed the kitchen. Overall avery peaceful and restful experience. We will definitely benack another time! 😊

Upon arrival a guest told us we needed to drive to another hotel to pick up our keys and there was no sign on the office door indicating that. But overall a nice cozy place
Marcia, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

The staff was so kind and helpful and it’s walkable to Rusty’s Saloon and other dining and shops. The major negative was how dirty and run down the room was. It was so uncomfortable unfortunately.
April, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Do not recommend

This place was incredibly disgusting. The moment we opened the door, we were hit with a wave of stench that was nearly unbearable. There were gnats in the room, on the table; we had to eat outside.

Chaotic check in but good stay

When we first arrived we were told to pick up the key from a sister property. I got the key, opened the door and found someone else’s belongings. I was confused and as I just walked out the door and locked it, an elderly couple yelled at me asking me why I was lurking around their room. I showed them the envelope for the key and we were both confounded. Contacted the property manager and she was very apologetic about the incident, explaining that I had the master key and my room was double booked. Eventually we got a different room to stay for the night. Stephanie was polite and helpful despite the incident.

Nice Stay

Overall, I had a pleasant stay. El Rancho Motel had a fourplex that was able to house my large family for a night while other places didn't.

Shower was amazing. We ended up having to leave early and staff worked with us on a partial refund which was very much appreciated! Great business ethic!

Morgan, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Check in was super easy. They don’t do late check-ins but you can get your key at nearby motel. Room was ok. You can see them trying to make it cute with small details but my biggest concern was the door. I couldn’t for the life of me get it to close/lock at first because the bolt wouldn’t go inside the plate. I basically had to slam it close to finally get it to work. Air conditioning worked well for a 95 degree day. Bed sheets were nice and soft but bed itself wasn’t the most comfortable. They had an ice machine right outside just wish they would protect the scoop a bit better. Could have been a bit cleaner but I did get a “cheaper” motel. Their sister hotel Trees motel has a fire pit for the evening which was cool but this lot was more spacious for car and quieter. What I do love about motels is being able to park right in front because i always forget things in the car and rather do small locals then bigger chains when i can. Just not the nicest of the ones I’ve done but also not the worst!

Perfect place for a long family weekend

Perfect place to stay while our family was in Bishop for a long weekend of climbing. We stayed in one of the bungalows and having the full kitchen was fantastic! Clean, comfortable, and an excellent value. We'll definitely stay there again next time.
