Both the outer bedding and sheets were stained making me feel uncomfortable. We asked for a replacement and were given a clean sheet. The furniture in the room was stained as well. The walls are very thin and we could hear our neighbors full conversation and music. It was almost as if we were in the same room as our neighbors.

My family had a pleasant stay with our pup. The room was clean and the property was nice with many trees, 2 swimming pool options (indoor and outdoor), friendly and accommodating staff, and a restaurant on the property with a great breakfast and lunch/dinner options. It hit all the marks we needed for a good and comfortable stay near Yosemite.
