This was our second visit. This time, our mattress was pretty uncomfortable and I really hate those synthetic bedspreads. Everything else was fine. Water pressure in the shower is decent. Location is great and the grounds are charming. Plenty of good dining options nearby, from nice coffee house to very cheffy.

This is a very basic older motel. The blankets are threadbare, the top mount bathroom sink is too tall, and the room is very dark.

We enjoyed the opportunity to stay in a camper! It was nice and clean, but there were some stains on the couch and the twin beds my daughters slept on had a mattress about 3 inches thick, which was a difficult sleep for them. Our pilot light was out 2 days and we had to take cold showers, but it was quickly repaired the next day. All in all, the convenience of the location, being so close to Yosemite's entrance was great. The front office staff was hospitable and accommodating when we had needs, and we enjoyed our time. We would come back, but stay in another cabin or in the lodge and not the camper.
