An okay stay on the way to Yosemite. I stayed in the older units next to the restaurant…it was noisy from the restaurant parking lot being right outside the unit. Not the cleanest, but fine for a one night stay. The lodge rooms may have been nicer and definitely quieter so I recommend booking one of those.

We stayed 2 nights in Room 611, which is apparently the only queen room with an attached patio/deck. The room was clean and spacious. The bed was hard for my back. The outside patio/deck was nice, but the table and chairs had not been cleaned in some time. You have minimal interaction with the staff. It's in a nice location, pretty close to the park entrance. The Lucky Dollar Cafe next door is a decent place to eat (and the only place to eat). Overall, a nice play to stay.
