Mt Whitney Motel

Mt Whitney Motel

8/10 Good
"The property is definitely dated. It’s perfect for a Hiker that doesn’t mind an old microwave and refrigerator and older furnishings. But I have to say, it is EXTREMELY clean and the beds are very comfortable so when you’re prepping or coming back from hiking Mount Whitney it is a wonderful respite. the staff is also super nice and has no problem coming out late to check me in with a friendly smile. There is also pressure in the showers thank God wish most hiking places don’t have. Would definitely recommend for any Hiker passing through. It is literally only 20 minutes to the portal."
