“Eastside Guesthouse And Bivy has a peacefulness that belies its central Bishop location; the pond, cottonwoods, and spots to relax offer a true oasis. While it operates with a hostel model, private rooms with bathrooms provide welcome seclusion. I think its communal spaces are its real advantage, fostering connections among guests.”
