Very good

Best place yet in a 3 week road trip! Clean, roomy for 3 adults, quiet, welcoming staff for check in, restaurant next door was great, and hot tub on sore hiking legs felt wonderful.
Very nice property! Only negative I can even think of is the wifi was spotty at best-but for the location that’s probably not their fault-it’s pretty remote. :)
Nice little restaurant next door!
Property is well updated in the rooms and well maintained in the center courtyard with playground, pool and fire pit. Our rooms were very clean but had a strong floral febreze smell which took a while to get used to. Staff was very friendly checking in and breakfast next door was good. It’s about 50 min from Yosemite valley and a good place to stay.
Had a great experience over easter weekend. The staff is extremely friendly, and the location is perfectly situated off 120. If you're heading to yosemite, it's a solid choice!
The property is great, nice and clean but the personal who might be the manager is not so nice. I asked for the receipt he refused to give me one because I booked through Expedia. I asked for the receipt of extra charge because I have extra guests in my room which he decided to charged me $10/person/night then he gave me the small receipt that printed out from the small calculator without any details. I’m not going take away from the hotel is very nice, clean and comfortable.
Excellent location to Yosemite. Has a little playground that was fun after a day of travel. If you are there in season, there is a pool and hot tub. Groveland is pretty close with places to eat which was great. We had a small issue in the bathroom with some tiny ants entering a tiny hole by the caulk on the floor. Mentioned it to the office and they gave us something to place there that fixed the situation quickly. Easy fix. We were there just after a major warm up after spring snow melt...so things were just starting to come alive. So i wasn't worried about it. I would stay here again when visiting the national park.

The rooms are clean and comfortable, with parking, pool, picnic tables, and washing machine. It's 12 miles to the parks gate and 1 hour to the valley going through a beautiful road with many views points. The restaurant next door is also highly recommended.
For a place that looks on the outside as a older establishment
The inside is as modern & nice as it gets

The location is good for access to Yosemite. The ad said it had a hot tub, which is why I picked it over others, but it turns out it is only seasonal.. The pool & hot tub were closed but not covered so they were full of leaves & the water was dirty. Rooms were average but a plus was a microwave, fridge, & coffee maker. Note there is no clerk from 10pm-8am.
