We stayed here for only one night, while passing through. I would definately stay again. It was clean and well maintained. We had a room with two queen beds and a small patio in the rear with a couple of chairs. There was a small refrigerator, a coffee maker with all the supplies. The two chairs were very comfortable and... More

I had booked our accommodation through Expedia. When we arrived we were told that a smoking room had been booked which is not what we wanted. Both Margarita and Betty were very quick to help us with changing the room to a non smoking with no hassle at all. The motel rooms are very clean, modern and nice to walk... More

My wife and I were there a couple nights ago. I thought the place was a little over priced for the product. However, the room was clean and neat. The employees were friendly and efficient. The views of the mountains in the morning were spectacular. Breakfast was less than average even for a motel continental. As we left town, we... More

Yes, it is a motel and has a motel feel but it has a good relaxed vibe to it. Room was good and clean, quite large. Breakfast was good. My only criticism is that it is a bit of a way out from the town. After a day out It would have been quite a way to walk. Lone Pine... More

given it is located in a terrific setting, it was very good. The Best Western is a pretty basic motel that I would imagine dates back to the 60's. Nothing special, including the hot breakfast, but one has to compare it to the other places to stay in Lone Pine and based upon that and the many great things to... More

Thank you for your kind words. The motel was actually built in 1948 by my Great Grandfather (the original 20 units) and we are always striving to keep it updated and as comfortable as possible. I hope you'll come back and stay with us again in the future to see our ongoing changes and progress. Sincerely, Travis Powell More

Needed a place to stay for one night after our Death Valley weekend, and I am so glad we went a bit out of our way and stayed at this lovely motel. Our room was comfortable, the bathroom was large with good counter space and a great shower. Everything was clean and looked fresh - nothing drab or dingy in... More

Stayed overnight here and had a great stay, wonderful views of Mount Whitney be put off by the fact that it's roadside. We had a room right next to the road and still had a great nights sleep. Breakfast was good, plenty to choose from, it says free hot breakfast but in comparison to other best westerns we have used... More

This is above-average chain motel accommodation. The rooms are big -- especially the appropriately-named John Wayne room! (#160). Service is friendly and the rooms are clean. This is a great place to spend a night while touring in the Eastern Sierra and Death Valley regions.
