Very Good

Great place with stunning views and wonderful hospitality. From the moment we checked in (thanks to Jonathan) to the restaurant staff (especially Mr. DJ), everyone was incredibly patient and friendly. Even though we came hoping to see snow and didn’t get any, the experience was still amazing because of the people. Truly made our stay memorable.
Excellent location, just 15 minutes walk to lower Yosemite Falls. 3 different places to eat and a Starbucks on premise.
Rooms are clean and basic. Bed was comfortable. Very friendly staff. Yosemite Valley free shuttle has a stop here.
Happy to have an affordable option inside the park. Room was fine. Location was great.

Only positive is the location. Rooms are very dated, they do not have thermostats, just extra blankets and portable heaters. No amenities - no breakfast, no microwave, no indoor pool or hot tub. Very expensive considering.
Did appreciate outdoor tours there, especially with your guide Deano.
Rooms not 100% clean. very old. great location, great service and people , if you complain they come.
i guess its hard to mantain such a place,
just dont olan to stay too much at the room, only for sleeping etc
Very cozy cottage like stay. Would recommend for people looking for a stay in the park there a fridge but no microwave. If you need one you can use a communal one in the front desk building.
Staff very helpful and pleasant, allowed us to check in early! Room a bit dated and rustic

The rooms are very basic, and are clean and visitor-ready. The towel rack in the bathroom fell off when I reached for a towel - not even a screw to hold it in place. Facilities staff responded in a timely way and basically did what I had already done to get it back up. The bathtub/shower floor was in bad shape and the top of the sink did not fit correctly. It is the least expensive place t stay in the park, and it is a step above the dorm rooms. It would be nice to have a microwave in each building. The parking lot and street lighting is not good so crossing the road to use the single microwave in the lobby is very inconvenient. At least one nice bed pillow would be nice, too.
Nothing better than staying right in the heart of the park where you can step outside your door for a hike, or grab something to eat, shop for souvenirs, etc. Room was clean and comfortable.
