Needed a place to stay for one night close to Yosemite. The price was right here and it was worth every penny. The room was large, clean and well appointed. The bed was a little too firm for my liking but that’s just my personal preference. It was still a very nice bed. Would definitely recommend this place.

Beautiful area and great place
Staff were very friendly on arrival. Rooms are newly renovated and nice. We only stayed one night, but it was the night after a long travel day. We were able to relax and enjoy our stay to prepare for the rest of our trip.

Good place for families.
Very friendly staff. Room was extremely clean. Nice outdoor pool and spa. Two restaurants close by, a little far from the entrance of Yosemite but not crazy far. Would stay again.
