Everything was great the front desk staff were so informative told us everything about the area and how to get around.
Absolutely love Yosemite National Park
I truly hated to leave
The place is really cozy and has a warm cabin feel. The rooms were clean and well maintained. Only complaint was the bed wasn't very comfortable and the pillows were a little flat for my liking. Overall the place was a nice stay and the staff were really friendly.
I thought the place was great! The staff went out of their way to help in any way possible. The room was clean, bright, decorated perfectly and had a great view from the deck. The location was perfect. I had a great week there, I would definitely stay again. Many thanks to the friendly Inn staff and crew in the restaurant, the chef was awesome.
Was great for a few nights stay! Shower was slightly crusty but we cleaned it and then it was all good! Nice bedding and views!

We stayed for two nights. There were no shampoo or conditioner. Also, they do not provide daily service, so if you need more toilet paper, coffee, cups, etc. you must request it. We just walked to the office and asked for what we needed. The key didn’t work in the deadbolt! Also, the peep hole was just a hole in the door!
2nd night we ate at the restaurant, I had wedge salad with salmon on the side. It was delicious. I probably won’t stay there again, but I definitely would eat there.
Simple mountain lodge hotel room but with great staff and amazing outdoor amenities. My favorite part might have been the comfy rockers on the balcony that overlooks the mountains and nearby stream but there were lots of other outdoor areas for gathering to relax and enjoy the mountains. Very friendly staff that are super helpful and knowledgeable for exploring the area.

We did not receive the room we booked. What we booked was a beautiful room with white walls, beamed ceiling and ceiling fan, a roomy bathroom and requested no steps. What we got was a very tiny outdated room with paneling with 14 steps necessary to get to it, a very small bathroom with a tiny sink about three feet off the ground and a shower no shower chair could fit in, even if one was available. Instead, the Manager brought us a folding chair that could not fit in the shower with a person in it if you wanted to close the door. The room was dark and there was only one chair to sit on and cable that did not work. On the upside, the room was pretty clean and the bed was very comfortable. Parking was good and the restaurant, albeit under staffed, had good food. Pretty disappointing and overpriced for what we got.
The room was clean . A little small but the bathroom modern and big. Having a restaurant to dine in the evening is a plus as there are not a lot of options around
The location and proximity to the national park was great. The rustic feel and quant size added charm to the stay, which was way too short for use to really enjoy the setting.
