The Starlight Motel lived up to its excellent ratings. The room was basic, clean and had all the amenities you expect. Microwave, coffee maker, refrigerator. The only thing the Motel does not provide is a complementary breakfast. But that did not deter us from booking. If you're in the area, definitely stay.

Staff was outstanding. Very friendly. Provided welcome basket with fruit and snacks. Made sure we were settled in the room and knew how everything worked. Offered me a free beer to have with my takeout meal on the motel deck. Room was clean and comfortable with extra toiletries if we needed them. Bathroom was cramped and AC was noisy (which he had warned us about at check in) but otherwise the room was very nice for an economy motel.

Cute and clean

We were backpacking in Big Pines and needed a close place to stay the night before we left. The rooms were clean and cool (it was 95 in Big Pine when we arrived so the AC was welcome). Motel itself was cute & had a resident chicken that we fed before heading in for the night. Host was as nice as they come.
