The restaurant is wonderful. The rooms are very clean. Staff is friendly and mostly helpful. We have stayed here many times. The toilet in our room was broken and wouldn’t flush. Staff did not seem too concerned. We fixed it ourselves. May be trying new options next time

Great place to stay!

Hotel room was clean and it did not smell like cigarettes. The beds were comfy after 10,000+ steps at Yosemite Park. The shower and bathroom were clean, plenty of towels to use property was quiet and lots of greenery around. We even got to see some deer. The staff at the restaurant were nice, and a special shout out to Kyle, he was the friendliest.
