This Best Western is charming. The pools and hot tubs were clean and relaxing. The free breakfast was amazing and the restaurant was a pleasant surprise. Large dining area, great selection of food and excellent service. The only gripe is the bar area is too small and if you just wanted to have a drink and relax you had to sit at the tiny bar and if no space was available, no drink for you.

Location was great! The hotel needs some updates. You can tell it's an old motel, and the rooms need better updates. It was okay, but you are paying the price for the location, not the hotel. It was clean and a pleasant area to stay, just needed some updates.

We loved our two night stay here, we had a two bedroom suite for our family of four and had plenty of space. Really convenient to Yosemite, great location! Free breakfast was a fabulous bonus, and really good, we also had two evening meals in the restaurant which were also very good. The receptionist was also fabulous.

Very nice!

This hotel was fantastic—very spacious, comfortable and clean. The restaurant had a great menu and complementary breakfast was decent enough. The two onsite pools and hot tubs were great and the drive to Yosemite was very convenient. I would absolutely stay here again.

We loved our stay at Best Western. The room was very comfortable and clean. We slept very well in our bed, so comfortable. The hotel looks very much like we were in the Yosemite park because of all the trees and design of the buildings. The food in the restaurant was very good. We had a dinner there and enjoyed two complimentary breakfasts. I would recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a wonderful experience.

It was okay

We stayed here two nights, when I checked the staff were friendly and nice. The room was just outdated, the AC sounded like a lawn mower when it was on. There was mosquitos in and around the room, but I’m assuming when they clean it the bugs come in. It was okay overall, the room looked terrible outdated, but we needed something cheap in price close to the entrance to Yosemite but next time I’ll pick somewhere else.

We only stayed for one night for our trip to Yosemite and it was a wonderful stop to rest. I highly recommend this hotel if you are traveling to Yosemite, it has a lot of character.
