Ανακαλύψτε τη διαμονή σας σε Bishop

The service team of Sandra and Blanca were courteous and very professional. Breakfast was basic but good enough. We stayed at a King Suite above the garage (which I requested it so we'll have fewer ”neighbors” around us), the only thing I noticed was that hot water travels a long distance from the water heater to my unit in cold weather. Took me a while to figure that one out. Overall, it's always a pleasant stay over here. Will be back again.

I hadn't stayed in Bishop for a number of years and thought I'd try the El Rancho Motel since I recalled staying there many years before. Check-in was at The Trees Motel a short distance away (I assume they share the same ownership) - just a slight inconvenience there. The El Rancho facility itself was pretty much as I remembered it - an older one-story motel with fairly small and bare-bones rooms. The place has seen better days but everything was clean and everything worked fine. The only exception to that was the hot water in the sink and shower of the tiny bathroom - it took forever for the hot water to come on but it eventually did. There was a small table and chair, fridge/freezer, and coffeemaker in the room, and the heater worked fine and was reasonably quiet. The bed was comfortable enough, and the TV was good-sized and had plenty of channels. Motels in Bishop seem like they're a bit pricey in general and I didn't think the El Rancho offered great value for what I got. It was ok but I'll most likely look for another option the next time I stay in Bishop.

I loved everything about this place except for the staff. In 15 years of staying at hostels all over the world, I have never felt less welcomed by staff members as I was from Ant (short for Anthony). From the moment I arrived he was inexplicably rude to me and my group, reluctantly answering questions and rushing through the protocol for how the house runs. When we informed him that our toilet was leaking water onto the bathroom floor, he told us he was aware of the problem but offered no solution. After a full day of hostility towards us, I overheard him complaining to the other staff members in the kitchen about how much he hates hikers and how he can't wait for the hiker season to be over so they'll stop coming. Being a hiker, I finally realized why he had decided to make our stay as uncomfortable as possible. While he did complain loudly every time a new guest arrived to check in, he was noticeably nicer to anyone who appeared to have money or was an attractive female. As previously stated, everything about this location is excellent. I hope that the owner reads this and seriously considers a change in staffing - the current crew is severely bringing down the potential for this place to be the best lodging option in Bishop for adventurers.

I booked this motel after seeing the description and pictures on the internet. The pictures looked very nice and the kitchen looked good, fairly equipped (refrigerator, stove, etc., basic but usable), so we booked the room. Upon booking we found that the listed price went way up but we booked it anyway. When we checked in we were given a dingy little room that did not look anything like what the motel showed online. The kitchen consisted of a sink, mini refrigerator, and mini microwave, 2 plates, 2 dishes, 2 forks, 2 spoons, and 1 knife. A couple of small pan lids were in the cupboard. There were electrical sockets as if there had been a regular refrigerator and stove which had been removed. The luxury linens on the bed were very old, hardly luxury and mismatched as if they were leftovers. The bathroom seemed to be an after thought with a tiny shower in which you bumped your elbows on the wall, a toilet that was set so that your knees either bumped the sink or had to be tucked under it, and no place to hang the absolute minimum of towels that were left out in the other room. By the bed there was not an end table and lamp on each side as pictured. This room felt like it was added after the fact squeezed into a maintenance closet or something. Plus the room was expensive, $261 for one night, $32 more than what I had already thought I was going to be charged. I won’t ever be back. Management had not explanation or did they offer recourse. I really felt this was a bait and switch situation and will never be back.

A traveling retired ski bum like me balks at paying $400/night to stay at Mammoth when I can get a room for a bit over $100 in Bishop an hour away. One has to be careful when staying at less-expensive motels - they can be nasty and are often a crapshoot. Not so here! The rooms aren't very big, but mine was totally fine. Flat-screen TV, microwave, refrigerator, comfortable bed, and quiet. Very clean and no smell. Many restaurants and stores within walking or easy driving distance. I would gladly stay here again.

Convenient accommodation, check in good service, with microwave in the house, small refrigerator, free outdoor pool, chargeable laundry, very simple breakfast

Good breakfast, not many people, free parking. No laundry service, you need to go to the nearby laundry to wash clothes, but it is also very convenient.

Qualité Super 8. Grande chambre tout confort, vue sur montagne. Très calme, car les chambres tournent le dos à la route. Petit-déjeuner très bien. Personnel serviable.

In addition to expensive, there are no major shortcomings, the price of a small town is more expensive than San Francisco. The day before going to Yosemite, living in the town of Bithorpe was very convenient and not very expensive.
