We liked the hotel location; it was safe, and parking was easy. Shopping was in Groveland, and you had to drive to get there. Dining options was limited. Uncle Buck's was good and convenient but got crowded at times. The next dining location was several miles away. The hotel was located outside the National Park, but convenient to access the park. We visited Yosemite Park several times and also visited Big Trees State Park, Arnold, CA and 1897 Rail Town, Jamestown, CA.
