What a beautiful spot right on the border of Yosemite National Park. Great ambience, grounds are beautiful. Store onsite with all the essentials. Staff super friendly. My only complaint was no robes in the rooms so it prevented us from walking to the heated pools as it as almost 0c in the evenings.

Not happy!!

No tv in room. No tv except in bar! Too loud to hear a tv in bar. No microwave in room. Had to get dressed and walk to end of hall to warm your coffee. No, relaxing in pj’s with your morning coffee. People above us moved furniture from 8pm to 9pm then started moving furniture again before 7am the next morning. When I complained about these things while checking out, the desk clerk made it obvious that she could care less and my concerns would not be passed on.
