This was an adorable place to stay! The room was large, the beds comfortable and warm, the heater worked great as it was 10 degrees outside, and the check-in staff person was so friendly and provided much information about the area. We will stay here again!!

Price Not commensurate with staff friendliness or amenities. Check out at 10am too early and no one on duty at registration at check out. Charges $75 more than they should have. Disappointing

Spacious rooms, clean, close to Yosemite National Park, and right next to Mono Lake! Several small restaurants/grocery stores within walking distance.

Very nice hotel in a beautiful town. Our room was large, comfortable and well located. The staff is exceptionally friendly and helpful. I wish we could have spent more than one night there.

This room had a great view of Mono Lake. It has a beautiful area outside with grills and sitting areas. Which we took advantage of. It was nice to be able to sit outside and to grill while looking at the beautiful scenery. The room was large, which was nice.

The accommodations were very nice with lots of outdoor space to enjoy. The food was very good at their restaurant and the pool area was relaxing. It was a good stopping point for us coming out of Yosemite.
