Nice and comfortable rooms, charming downtown
Nice clean comfortable room. Very spacious bathroom. Although the weather wasn't right for it, they also have a nice looking pool and playground. The restaurant next door for dinner and breakfast was also very delicious.

This small hotel was such a nice surprise on our way from San Francisco to Yosemite! The rooms had been completely upgraded and they have thought of everything… phone and watch charger options by the bed, multiple off-floor places for suitcases, pump products in the shower and even for lotion, clean floor instead of marginal carpets. Cute surroundings with outside sitting options. Last stop before you pay the high prices in the Park! Excellent value too.

Great hotel! Clean, comfortable and some very pleasant amenities. Only complaint is comfort of the beds. Very small, on the hard side and the way the sheets are on them is odd and uncomfortable. Otherwise this is a fabulous place to stay alone or with the family. It has everything you want/need at a hotel and in your room.
