This was a great location for visiting Yosemite & Mariposa Grove. The hotel was nothing special when we first got there, but the room was newly renovated, spacious, quiet, and overall excellent. We would stay again! The pool and hot tub were very nice and it was nice to have souvenir options at the hotel. The breakfast was very basic, we did not particularly enjoy the breakfast. Great BBQ restaurant across the street.

The most thing I like was the cleanliness. 10/10. This is perfect stay to visit Yosemite park. The room has spacious and the bed comfort. I had only two things that I not like: 1) the wifi. It was inconsistent in android and apple. Both electronics had strong signal but the wifi goes up and downs. 2) insulation on the bedrooms. The neighbors on the left and upstairs was noisy. I can hear the steps, the microwave, etc. Overall is a good place.

Excellent stay, outdated pool for family.

Comfortable, nice rooms, great customer service. They made a point about using the hot tub/saunca facilities during checkin, so we doceded to give it a whirl, however when we used them, they barely worked. Luke warm water in the hot tub, sauna couldn't break a sweat. Obviously we didn't choose to stay here for their pool, and the hotel it perfect outside of that fact. Highly recommend.
