"This was a one night stop on our way to Yosemite, and I was surprised how good this little motel was! Very friendly staff, very clean room, comfortable with everything you expect for the price. My husband complained about the noise from the heater as it was cold outside during the night, but I would recommend it to anyone looking for a good place to stay in the area!"
