Rooms are super dated but the location is impeccable, for the pricing they can give rooms an upgrade. Outdoors have been beautifully designed & game room without any extra is a huge plus.

Perfect Place for Trip to Yosemite
What an amazing place to have as a home base for a trip to Yosemite! Right outside the park. Such easy access. The room was terrific. Clean, spacious, comfortable. The kitchenette was just fine for breakfast preparations. Don't expect much internet service. Little to no cell service and wifi was poor. We only used housekeeping once but they did a nice job. Both restaurants were good. The provisions at the store were more than adequate for our needs. Eggs, butter, bread, cheese. You'll need to get fruit outside of bananas at the store in Yosemite village. Very pleasant to walk by the river. Highly recommended.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
The view from our balcony was a beautiful flowing river - best part of our stay. The room was clean with a small sitting area and kitchenette. The bathroom was in need of updates. For example, the whirlpool and the shower were combined making it difficult to climb over a 2 foot tub wall to shower. The elevator in our building was out of order, this was inconvenient being on the second floor. The weather was cool so we didn’t use the outdoor pools but they looked nice.
