Familiär geführtes Motel
Kleines, familiär geführtes Motel, für anspruchslose Besucher. Für die Übernachtung bei der Durchreise ist dieses Hotel ausreichend.

Hôtel calme
Situé dans une petite bourgade au milieu de nulle part. Trés calme, avec juste un Subway à 500 m comme seul restaurant de la ville

Obligés de changer de chambre car la climatisation ne marchait pas. Climatisation et réfrigérateur très bruyants. Motel vieillissant. De plus, Indépendance est un village déserté, continuez jusqu’à Bishop.

Okay til en overnatning.
Fint motel til den pris til en enkelt overnatning. Værelset virkede rent og pænt. Det var rimelig småt, men både med køleskab og microovn.

Motell för genomresa mellan Death Valley & Yosemite
Helt ok hotell för en genomresa. Fanns bara 1 restaurang i hela 'byn' + en Subaway.

Motel am Ende der Welt aber völlig ok
Independence liegt einfach ein bisschen am Ende der Welt, so fühlt sich der Ort auch an - dafür war das Motel aber in Ordnung, vielleicht ein bisschen altmodisch aber absolut sauber. Ich hatte ein großes Zimmer (sogar mit Essitsch-Ecke), ein bequemes Bett und die Dame beim Check in war sehr nett. Vielleicht war es ein bisschen teuer für das was man bekommt, aber prinzipiell war es völlig ok.

Stopp zwischen Death Valley und Tioga Pass

Nettes Zimmer
Sind auf unserer Amerikareise für eine Nacht in diesem Motel eingecheckt. Begrüßung war sehr freundlich. Zimmer etwas klein aber ausreichen. Zimmer, Bett und Handtücher waren sauber. Alle Einrichtungsgegenstände waren Funktionstüchtig und ausreichend sauber. Für eine Nacht OK.

Small Jem in Independence
This small but comfortable room had everything I needed for a quick vacation - TV, wifi, coffee and a hot shower. The room was clean and quiet and the staff was very nice and helpful. The price for the room was very reasonable, especially compared to nearby Lone Pine. I look forward to staying here again.
