Planned on camping near by, but weather wasn’t cooperating. Friendly check in, clean room, so glad we changed to this hotel in Lone Pine instead of chancing it.

crackheads and a Russian ice skater
The room was very small and smelled heavily of cleaning product. The fridge was so loud I had to unplug it to sleep. The walls were paper thin and I could hear the crack heads next door arguing all night; something about a stolen 89 dodge. There were wide gaps in the door allowing the cold air outside to leak in. The bed I think was from the 80's and was only slightly more comfortable than my backpacking air pad. The lady at the front desk was very nice though and it was the cheapest motel in town. The TV had hundreds of sports channels, if your into that stuff. The shower worked ok after a bit of a struggle. The heater worked ok for a wall heater. I dreamt that the crackheads next door stole my car and crashed into a Circle K. Nevertheless I love this town and I will be back. Had it not been 23F out I would have camped like usual. For the price of 100$ I cant complain. I was only there to sleep and shower, then away to the mountains. I would likely pay a bit more in the future for a slightly larger and updated room. However, I would stay again if need be. My trip overall was fantastic. I hiked to lone pine lake and met a Russian man who was ice skating on the frozen lake. I video taped him and his husky which had different color eyes. He offered me a chance to borrow his skates but I declined only because I have not skated in almost 20 years and I didn't want to break an ankle before the hike down or fall through the ice to my death; I could hear the ice crack as he skated.

Perfect after a long hike
Older hotel, but that's expected. It's not the Las Vegas strip. The bed was comfortable, room was spacious, and we had everything we needed. Staff was friendly. No complaints. Perfect place to stay after summitting Mt. Whitney.

How can you review the property when you didn't even stay here. You booked a room and saw that we don't allow pets. At check-in there is a sign that says "Sorry, no pets" and you were asked if you had a pet and replied "No". Then you go back to the Annex section and a staff member saw you with a dog and reiterated "No Pets". You stated that you were tired and forgot your dog was with you. Your mistake and you want to write a negative review. Great job. We said we hadn't charged the EVC yet and are working to get your refund back to you from Expedia.

Classic Motor Lodge on the 395
Mt. whitney Motel is a vintage motor lodge in Lone Pine. It was clean with exactly what we needed. Kind staff amd very helpful whenever we needed it. While the pool was old, it was clean and my girls loved it. It could use a few new lounge chairs, but whatever. Walking distance to old town restaurants and ice cream. I’d stay again in a heartbeat.
