This property is very convenient to be right in the valley. The furnishings are a bit outdated and rustic but in good shape. We have a nice outdoor patio with a view. Love this place.

If you’re looking for fancy and new, this isn’t it. The property was probably built in the 1960’s and you still use old fashioned turn keys to open your room. Bathrooms have been updated. They have mini fridges and a keurig in your room. Wi-fi is spotty but I found that was the case everywhere in the mountains. Short walk on concrete to Lower Yosemite Falls gorgeous views and just breathtaking to be in the heart of Yosemite Valley.

We stayed here for my yosemite wedding and did not have power in any of the outlets in my room when it was time to get ready.the tv power dodnt work nor the mini fridge. Everything worked out for the most part but it was a huge inconvenience and big stressor for the morning of my wedding. That said, yosemite is absolutely beautiful and if i didnt have to plug in my curling iron to get ready- we would he camping instead of this hotel.
