2/10 Poor

Noisy, cold, cramped, overpriced
If you’re into non stop trucks going by less than 20 ft from your bed, if you’re into heaters being too small to keep you and yours warm, if you love your shower not draining and flooding the floor, and you enjoy stubbing your toes on furniture too big for a small room - and you really love over paying for getting no sleep - this place is for you!

The building itself is clean and well kept. Would be nice if parking lot was paved. Shower was an afterthought. So tight you can't bend over.

Spartan, but adequate for an overnight stay. The town is itself is not worth staying at (though it has an awesome view of the Eastern Sierras).

4/10 Fair

Rooms are super small, beds occupy all the space, leaving no room for the usual furniture. There is no front desk and no service of any kind. The building is merely a few feet from the busy 395 highway, with truck traffic being heard even past midnight.

We really enjoyed this property. No it is not a Hilton but great in its own way. It is a small motor lodge that is cute, clean, comfortable. It is 15 minutes from Lone Pine. The room is a large basic room with a very comfortable bed. There is a refrigerator, microwave and kettle in the room. A wide range of snacks are in the rooms. (Popcorn, chips, granola bars, and sweets) We enjoyed sitting on the porch in the Adirondack chairs looking at the mountains. We were very happy with this cute motel and will be back.

2/10 Poor

It was not a nice experience. It was the worst place we ever stayed. It wasn't clean and no nightly housekeeping and overpriced.

2/10 Poor

It is hard to describe how bad it was. We planned a hiking trip with family and ended up staying here since we could not find any other accommodation. Bed sheets had holes in them, bathroom tub was stained and looked really disgusting. And the worst part was that roaches would crawl through holes in the front door in the night and climb on the bed. Actually, I really came to trust expedia for curating hotels and this was the worst experience we had. This should not been listed in expedia. And it was expensive and did not have nightly housekeeping. We could not stay last two nights of our stay and we simply left.

We enjoyed our stay at Eastern Sierra Motor Lodge. It was easy to check in and the owner quickly responded when we needed anything. There are very few restaurants in Independence so we had to drive to Lone Pine to eat. There was no grocery store either.

6/10 Good

I’m not complaining because I didn’t request accessible. Most rooms now have standard bathroom doors so we make do. This room was very difficult for us because the bathroom door was too narrow. The owners made a ramp so a wheelchair can get to the rooms which is great. A small fix- make the bathroom door a couple inches wider- and the room would be wheelchair accessible. We appreciated the snacks and the working mini fridge.

This place was adorable. We stayed in room 4. We appreciated the snacks and charm. The check in was super easy as they text you all the room access. Since we showed up late this worked great for us.

There was no nozzle on the shower, the toilet wouldn’t flush and the bed had hairs all over it. I would not recommend this place to anyone.
