Smoke alarm went off when I cooked pancakes in the morning
Extremely cosy cabins, perfect setting, helpful and on-hand staff, well equipped!
Great location overlooking stunning mountains. Comfy bed with beautiful bedding. Great bathroom with bath & shower. Kitchen was brilliant, cooker, hob, fridge/freezer etc. A lounge with table and chairs. Outside a veranda, and also padded chairs and tables.The complimentary breakfast was fantastic, with tables beautifully laid under the trees.
Wished we were there longer!
Lovely place and beautiful views! Great outdoor breakfast. Good for hikers.

The staff was very accommodating with a late check-in time. The room was comfortable for 2 people and it was very quiet.

Great atmosphere, quiet, separate cabins, great host.
Good location, view of the mountains directly across the street, get to breakfast early and you can get a table with a picture window to take it all in. Breakfast was good, good variety, well staffed to keep coffee and food topped up - this was a busy place - almost fully booked and it wasn't quite peak season, hence the price, worth a bit extra based on what I could see of some of the other "cheaper" places in town (small town).
The room was smallish with two queen sized beds, the bathroom was narrow, renovations were done not too long ago, but I found peeling wall paper in high wear areas. This place gets a lot of use, so don't expect perfection.
Location, the apartment, the information we got from Doug. The place is 20 min from Lone Pine and Alabama Hills, an outstanding site to visit.
Location is perfect to resupply for the John Muir Trail
The AC was absolutely terrible. I did not get any sleep as it was very loud (it turned on very loudly but it instantly shut off and kept repeating every 5 minutes). I should have shut it off all together as it was not working.
Great space/location and well equipped for our stay. Great plus of a complimentary breakfast too. Staff are helpful and leave you to it unless you need any help!
Really charming roadside motel and friendly staff. The rooms were comfortable and clean. Good breakfast!
The AC units are a bit old and really loud.
Beautiful small town, great location.
No breakfast available, no Mountain View as advertised from the room, the only window pointed to the wall of another cabin.
