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.

Most important: The room was clean including the bathroom, floor and beds. The queen bed's comfort was OK for one person but it would suck if there were 2 people on it. The sheets were not soft and the top blanket was a throw back to the late 80's but kept me warm. Walls are thin so you can hear a lot from the adjoining rooms but the place was quiet after 9pm. If you are looking for cheap (under $100) and staying 1-2 nights it's not horrible. I have stayed in worse and paid more. If you are in the area for longer and desire more comfortable amenities you have a lot more options in the area.

Clean and great service.

Looks like this place in the process of being renovated. Front desk was friendly and prompt, smelled of spicy curry (yum for me), and had second use as a storage space. Fresh paint, new flooring and fixtures, with old wall A/C (kind of noisy but worked). Various things stored outside of the hotel (old microwaves and A/C and desks), but were not in the way Signs said all rooms were non-smoking but ours smelled like a chain smoker had been living in it for a few years. Stale smoke that doesn't get out of the walls with new paint unless you redo the drywall and ceiling. The rest of the room was pretty clean, with exception to the fan in the bath room. Plenty of outlets and USB ports, but no place to hang clothes. Only one bath towel, but didn't notice until the morning, prob could have gotten more. No garbage can, but there was a plastic bag for trash. Fridge was a good size (small not mini). TV and microwave looked in good shape, although we didn't use them. The bed and pillows were fantastic. I slept for 11 hours, and my wife thought they were great as well. Hard floors were clean, but our dog prob missed his bed that we left in the truck. Overall a great stay for the price, and only $20 for the pet fee. Central Bishop location and easy to get in and out of.

Clean and great service.
