"My room was spotless, as were the grounds. My room was TINY - barely big enough for a bed. I traveled with just a small dog. It would have been very cramped for two people. So, room size was a drawback. On the plus side (beside its cleanliness). the complimentary buffet breakfast was SUPERB. (Anybody who says differently needs their head examined. ) There are only 15 units in the motel, but it offers a bvffet that beats the daylights out of big chains."

Nicely’s restaurant is directly across the street and the mobile gas station has Whoa Nellie Deli that has delicious food only a minute or so drive to get there. The room has a beautiful view of Mono Lake and the town is very quaint. Enjoyed our stay !"

Lee Vining Motel

8/10 Good
"Lee Vining Motel is now under new management, there was no one at the premises when I was there, they have a contact-less entry, meaning there is an envelope with your name on it inside is a key and instructions for Wifi and turning in your key when your stay is completed. Even though the room I was in was recently refurbished (room #1) the walls are still very thin, the placement of the outlets were a bit awkward, the microwave was not plugged in I had to move it closer to an outlet and unplug something else to be able to use it. Otherwise the room was cute, and the bed and pillows were comfy, the shower was OK, this room would not be considered accessible as there is a step up into the bathroom."
