Winter stay
The hotel fit our needs exactly. We had a family suite with 2 bathrooms and a kitchen area. Kids loved the indoor heated pool and playroom. Location near Yosemite entrance was great. Pizza was very good.

Good hotel right next to park entrance
Conveniently located so the value is good. The room is fine. This isn’t your holiday inn express. Almost all room items are outdated but still functional. The bed sheets could use some upgrades. The internet is spotty and difficult to use. For the location, I still consider this to be worth the money.

Mixed Bag
We enjoyed the layout of the room and felt the basics were all there; kitchen utensils, and bathroom (shampoo, soap, towels etc) were good. Also we had a lot of fun in the game room; that is a nice option. However with so many good things, there are some definite weaknesses. The shower in one of two bathrooms was so bad (spraying a little water everywhere) we could not shower there. The WiFi was extremely weak. The TV only connected to a really old basic DirectTV. Good if you watch shows from the 90’s and 2000’s.

Good location, poor customer service
We stayed for 3 nights and our experience was mixed. The room was quite nice and we enjoyed the kitchenette, as dining options are limited in the area. The hot tub and river view were also enjoyable. The customer service at this hotel is not good, however. There was a planned power outage that ended up lasting until 6:30pm (far past their estimate of 5pm), which meant sitting in the dark for 90 minutes. The front desk staff were quite rude to us when we kindly asked for updates. The hot water did not come back on in our room that night and the front desk said they would send out maintenance but they did not end up coming and the problem wasn’t resolved until the next day. The hotel supervisor, Christian, said that he would give us a 20% discount for the poor service, but we have yet to receive that one week later. Bottom line: this is a good place to stay if you want to be close to the park, but do not expect reasonable customer service if you run into any problems with your stay.

Near Yosemite
It was a great location for seeing Yosemite but it had the only restaurant around and it was a bit expensive for the quality. There was a small kitchenette so I would recommend bringing food for at least breakfast.
