We had such a great stay! The staff was incredibly friendly and made us feel welcome right away. The room itself was beautiful and very clean, which we really appreciated. We had amazing view of the mountains, which made the experience even more special. We truly enjoyed our night here and would definitely stay again!

Very clean room except for the floor was a little dirty. I spilt water and went to clean it up and the napkin was very dirty.
Bathroom was immaculate. Bed was exceptionally comfortable. Quiet. Manager was very nice and helpful. Would stay there again.
Ice maker machine works but needs some repairs.

Exceptional stay at the Starlight Motel. The owner Pravin is wonderful - friendly and attentive to your needs. The room was spotlessly clean, and well appointed. Will surely stay here again in my future travels to the Eastern Sierra!

We loved our stay here! The owner was super friendly and attentive. The location was very convenient for our hikes to Big Pine Lakes and other nearby trails. The deck area was a great spot to grill and relax after a long day.

From the moment staff greeted us for check-in we were impressed. The room was clean beyond our expectations, and everything we might have needed during our stay was provided. In our haste to prepare for this surprise trip we had actually forgotten a toothbrush, and there was one in the bathroom provided by the host. We cannot say enough about how pleased we were to have chosen the Starlight for our stay.
