Reviews and Ratings
The hotel rooms were a little on the small size, not very soundproof, and felt smaller than expected from website photos, giving a cozy yet cramped feeling. The service was exceptionally friendly and helpful. The location was amazing for a trip to Yosemite, with some limitations in dining choices due to issues at nearby establishments. The dining options were basic but satisfactory, and the facilities were nice enough.
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were quite small, although comfortable, and beautifully decorated with a lovely en-suite. The service was friendly and helpful, making our wedding anniversary special with a romantic dinner setup. The location was amazing for our Yosemite trip, with a nice community around. The dining experience was a bit of a letdown, but the fresh seafood made up for it.
The hotel offers comfortable and clean rooms, with friendly staff and a great location. The dining experience was average, but the facilities were nice. Overall, good value for money.
