"Location is excellent and the view from the balcony to the river was breathtaking. The room needed some repairs (balcony door won’t close completely, bathroom sink leaks onto the counter, kitchenette faucet drips, antiquated tub). Office is not open 24 hrs. Pool was excellent, unexpected late September."

"Excellent hotel, rooms were clean and comfortable. Shower was hot and good pressure. A/C worked properly and bed was comfortable. Breakfast was , yuk! Final draw back, location! Although the listing indicates it’s 30? Miles from Yosemite. It takes you an hour and twenty minutes to “S” curve your way through a narrow canyon. It’s a long scary drive. But when you get to the hotel it’s very nice"
