What a nice place! Enjoying two nights here and an incredible hospitality before starting a backpacking trip tomorrow. The reviews are saying it all, clean, calm, friendly, authentic!

Great gathering place, very comfortable beds, loved the community room dynamic. Very cute place, great central location for Bishop right on the main street. Only downside was children above us running around, throwing the occasional audible tantrum, but that's no fault of the hotel

Cute, clean and cosy rooms! The common area is great as well and well equiped! We were happy to relax in a hammock after our hiking day! A perfect location on the way to Yosemite or along the scenic 395! :)
