NO HOT WATER. Reported to manager several times but never fixed. So we left early. Motel said there was no problem and refused partial refund for the shorter stay. It's not just me--search reviews for "HOT WATER" and you will see dozens of complaints about this. This is essentially a coldwater flat so buyer beware.

The entire property had a sewage smell. Not sure whose fault that was. The room wasn't all bad- comfy bed, everything worked. There were some cleanliness issues- the coffee maker was gross and there was a toothpick/dentalfloss thing by the bed. kinda gross. The toilet could use some refinishing, and there was no bedside light1 either bright as hell or complete darkness.

Avoid this place

I know you get what you pay for, but this wasn't even worth the money i paid. The place is dirty. Garbage all over the grounds. Torn up driveway. Random parking spots. I found a used coffee cup (disposable) next to the coffee pot indicating the pot was probably not clean either. Overall dirty. The bathroom shade was torn up and has a light on the ground outside pointed directly at the window. I had to hang a towel for privacy and to block the light. The curtains had gaps where they wouldn't close allowing light to stream in and didn't provide privacy. The shower knob was on a shelf under the sink. I had to figure out which way to move the little rod to take a shower. The deadbolt didn't work. The bed was fairly comfortable. But the pillows sucked.

Worst experience ever

This was by far the worst motel experience I’ve ever had. We were left waiting on the highway because nobody bothered to answer our calls, which is absolutely unacceptable for any hospitality business. Even after being given a big property, the basics were missing – the AC didn’t work, WiFi was down, and even water supply was a problem. To make it worse, the bathroom was dirty and unhygienic, showing zero attention to cleanliness. When we tried reaching out for WiFi support, the staff never picked up the phone. Their behavior and attitude toward guests was careless, unprofessional, and downright disrespectful. A motel is supposed to provide comfort and service, but here we only faced negligence and frustration. If you care about your time, money, or peace of mind, avoid this place completely.”

Don’t stay here!!

The place is very run down, unkempt, and in need of some thorough cleaning. The towels were dingy and the beds were barely passable. The pictures on the website are not accurate at all. I booked ahead of time based on description, reviews, and pictures. Boy was I fooled! If I hadn’t paid over $100, I would have left.

You get what you pay for!! Floors were falling apart, curtains were hanging off the rod, shower head was painful, shower was ever so small. No idea why there was a wall of closet space which could have been a vanity in the bedroom. Bedspreads were cute! Bed was comfortable. TV had Hulu. Again, it ain’t the Ritz but what do you expect for$100 a night??

This was a much better stay than anticipated! For some reason the pictures on Expedia are a little off... We only stayed one night for a quick trip to Yosemite. The view was gorgeous from our room; it's overlooking the mountainside. The area is safe and quiet and only a few minutes away from a small town with restaurants, gas station, etc. Our room was nice and clean. The only downside was that everything on the property was so old - the bedsheets, the towels (one was stained and worn), and the appliances. The door kept getting stuck. If they upgraded these things, the stay would have been 10/10. Wouldn't mind staying again for a quick in and out trip!

The staff and office never answer their phones. Made numerous attempts to call office and no response. Also the office number area code is for another state. Not a California area code from Oakhurst. It’s a scam! Do not book or make a reservation there. You will not get your money back. Scam.

You get what you are paying for. Reasonably clean, basic and functional. The water in the shower was barely warm, but we didn't have time to ask for a fix. So we just let it go. On the positive side the views from the patio were amazing.

Awful

I suggest not to stay here. Don’t know how they would ever get an excellent review. The rooms are filthy and smelly. The AC unit only cools slightly the living room so all the family slept there. Overall the place is falling to pieces and clearly no one cares. I can accept budget accommodation yet it needs to be at least clean.
Dirty drawers and cutlery.
Nails protruding from door.
Spider webs everywhere.

A Last Resort!

This motel seems like it was built as something else. It's a mishmash of various building in various states of disrepair. Clean towels were stained. Sheets were stained and full of other people's hair. Non-functioning fridge. No remote for TV. Rat poo and bug traps present. Dipping feet in pool made them itchy. (A sign pool chemicals are off.) Plusses: very inexpensive, nice shower, no bugs present in room, convenient to local theater, bar, ice cream, gift shop, and Mexican food.

The place was extremely dirty. We were horrified to find termites infesting the bed, spiders skittering in every corner, and thick cobwebs heavy with dead insects throughout the property. This is clearly a calculated scam, I urgently warn anyone considering this place to check the reviews before booking. This wasn’t just a bad stay; it was a deliberate fraud that left us feeling cheated and betrayed. We picked up our stuff and went back home.
