Over all I would give this property a 3.5. It wasn't bad and it wasn't great. Super close to Yosemite West entrance. Main Lobby shopping is great. Restaurant food is ok. Prices are really high, but the service is very good. Rooms need a update, and the walls are thin. Bring ear plugs. After we checked in and were in our room, staff just OPENED our door. That was quite concerning. Not sure why that happened. If you are just looking for quick access to YNP, then is a budget able option.

Smooth checkin. Great room, with balcony on river. But both sheets didn't fit king bed - top and bottom didn't extend over, so by morning I was partially on the mattress pad and sheets were amuck. A manager-type at reception the next morning took notes and said he'd get the bed remade while we were in YNP, but on our return, it was not done. So, do they not stock proper sheets for king beds, or is customer satisfaction not a priority?? Disappointing. Restaurant: Nearby with nice menu. We arrived 30 min before closing, and the place was clearing out. Were seated immediately. Less than 1/2 full. Waited 10 minutes to place our order. Staff appeared focused on cleaning tables. 20 min. later the food finally arrived. Was luke-warm except at the center. Better after being nuked, but not tasty as described in menu. Disappointing.

Room is a bit dated. Especially the bathroom fittings are old, rusty and leaky. For e.g. the faucet had too much pressure and the water splashed outside the sink. Shower had some kind of reducer that made the pressure too low, it felt as if I was bathing in a mist. Other facilities seem fine. A stovetop and basic cutlery in the mini kitchenette was a nice surprise.

Very convenient if you want to be very close to Yosemite NP. Older property and bathrooms could use updating. Staff is great, very helpful. Convenience store on property sells everything, food, drinks, coffee, souvenirs and warm clothing. Rooms are oversized, with kitchenette, fireplace and river view. Overall a good stay with easy access into Yosemite.

It was a very outdated and old looking room with peeling paint on the walls, super thin walls and not the cleanest room I’ve ever been in. The only reason I would stay again was it’s proximity to the Park entrance and beautiful creek behind the hotel. Also the hotels TWO restaurants weren’t even open that night due to some gas line failure so we had to go to a nearby property for dinner last minute in the dark with no cell service so we were all a bit disappointed.
