The front desk staff is nice and provided a map for dinner options. The place is quiet and clean. The only thing not perfect is the conditioner is loud. But it still worthy for the it’s price.

Yosemite visit

TV reception is terrible, carpet needs replacing, breakfast is bread and cereal. No orange juice and cream cheese only one of the days. It is about an hour and 5 minute drive into Yosemite. On the plus side the pressure in the shower was fantastic and lots of restaurants in the area.
