We need a night to sleep after a camping trip. Just needed a soft bed and a hot shower, nothing fancy. El Rancho was fine for our needs.

Bishop Inn 1/5 Terrible I made a reservation for this facility the day before. When I arrived on the day, there was one employee there who told me, "It's not open at the moment. It's scheduled to reopen in August." I told them I had made a reservation, but they said it had been refunded, so as long as it wasn't open there was nothing I could do so I booked another facility. The accommodation fee was deducted from my credit card, what a careless company Expedia is. Selling a facility that isn't open and then conducting a survey on top of that. Please refund my money immediately.

Basic motel needs better wifi

El Rancho Hotel is centrally located, and the staff was responsive. If they want to get better reviews, they need better wifi, especially since their TV options were dependent on wifi!

The stay was alright for the cost of the facility. I only stayed one night. You would want to bring your own soap. I would have liked curtains on the windows as it was very bright with the blinds. Within walking distance of Main Street.

Walking into the room, had a strong smell of mold. The shower was moldy, and the smell permeated the whole room. There were bugs on the walls. There was a coffee maker with creamer, etc. but no coffee. The soap/shampoo dispensers in the shower were broken. The office is never open so you need to go to another motel to check in and get your key. On the plus side, the bed was not too uncomfortable and the room seemed somewhat clean other than the bugs and mold. The window A/C unit worked okay.

I was there for only 45m. We got in late, had to drive to a different location to pick up my keys. When I went in and took a shower and went to go to the bathroom, the toilet did not fully flush. I had to flush a few times for just pee
