Toiyabe Motel

Conveniently placed for access to the Eastern Sierras. Simple room with all you need. Clean everywhere except under the bed (some trash left from previous people). Weird checkin process, employee didn’t speak English but we worked it out with Google Translate, and had to text my name on his phone to his manager; worked but weird. Food is minimum 30 min away, so bring food with you. And heater was temperamental. It’s quiet at least.

3 night stay, 10/20-10/23/2024. First of all...I've been staying here or 50 years. It's a small motor lodge, nothing fancy. So I didn't expect the Mark Hopkins. Since my last stay ownership changed....Sadly not for the better. 1) The gas wall heater would not light. Staff had zero idea of how to get it started and brought me an electric heater for the night (expected temp was to be in the low '30s). The heater kicked off the breaker everytime it kicked on. No one returned to light the regular heater. 2) Later that night a knock came on the door. Staff member came to the door telling me my card had been declined and I must come to the office. After the back and forth they realized they goofed and I used a different card. I told them I was concerned about being double charged. Guess what.... I was double charged. 3) On my last day staff came to door at 4:30 in the afternoon to replace shower curtain. I was gone all day but I guess disturbing me was more convenient for them. 4) The staff member who replaced the shower curtain could stand an introduction to soap and deodreant. Had to open windows and turn on fan to clear the aroma. 5) The grounds used to be beautiful with flowers, lawns, trees, etc. Not now...... The are weeds 2 feet high everywhere. Garbage cans overflowing. 6) I could go on but I believe you get the point. It might help if onsite staff spoke English and the owners were onsite and not on the cellphone calling from who knows where.

While the place was clean, and the bedsheets were clean and free of bedbugs, place was a dump and right on the highway, and I could hear both the highway and the drip, drip drip of the next room’s air conditioning unit and I didn’t even turn on mine because it was so making old looking

Spot between Tahoe and Mammoth I needed a hotel between Tahoe and Mammoth for the night that wouldn’t break the bank. This motel more than delivered. Nice room and very reasonable price.

I'd stay here again.

A nice quiet getaway in a quaint little town. They got me in right away and it was a comfortable stay! Definitely would book again!
