Great value. Amazing high quality American breakfast. Maria in the breakfast area truly went above and beyond to offer us a perfect start into the day! For us it was the perfect getaway to Yosemite. For those traveling to Yosemite, be aware that the Welcome Center and Yosemite Valley are still 2.5 hours drive away.
The front desk team was friendly, but we have had much nicer and more welcoming front desk teams than the one at this hotel. There was mold in the bathroom in our first room. But after a short complaint we got a new and bigger room. The cleanliness of the bathroom was okay, but not a 10 out of 10. Every evening our room key card did not work and we had to go back to the front desk to change it.

The hotel room is in tip-top shape - clean, cozy, and has everything you need for a comfy stay. The Dove products are fantastic. They have a pleasant fragrance and make you feel like you're in a spa. And let's not forget about the breakfast - it's seriously delicious and has all the yummy stuff you want to start your day off right.
We had a rough night's sleep because a noise kept waking us up. It sounded like something repeatedly falling off the ceiling or door. I guess it needs to be addressed, as the loud noise disrupts our sleep. To add to our troubles, we asked the front desk for a toothbrush and toothpaste, but the staff didn't give them to us, so we had to go and get them ourselves. I thought that they should be readily available by the bathroom. The room is also a bit pricey compared to other hotels around the area, which is probably why I expected more from them.

Food was delicious as usual. Staff was very friendly and helpful.
We arrived at 5pm and had to wait about a half hour for our room to be cleaned. The room was cleaned but definitely a rush job. I get it though at least we didn’t wait an hour 😊 Oh and only an extra 30 minutes at check out was disappointing, maybe next time give us a later check as a courtesy.

Very clean as easy to get to. The staff did ask me any questions about my service dog. Even though it’s a no pet facility. They welcomed us in and said if I needed anything for him or my dog just ask. This is the first time I have not had issues with staff at a hotel with my service dog. Highly recommend this hotel. Clean and everyone was extremely friendly. Will stay again.

Pros: Quiet spacious rooms. Comfortable bed. AC & heating work well. Many outlets. Complimentary Dove toiletries. Friendly staff. Plenty of parking. Easy freeway access.
Neutral: The hot breakfast was interesting. Two types of sausages and sausage gravy with burned biscuits. No eggs. I want to give them the benefit of the doubt and assume it was an off morning.

I absolutely loved that the rooms were clean and bedding and towels were white so everything was clean and inspectable. I loved the complimentary coffee all day long. There was a ton of breakfast selections and it was deliciouse. There was plenty of toiletries, towels, and toilet paper. The hotel was near the freeway and near a couple of fast food resturants. The staff was nice and currteous. i also loved that the room had a mini fridge and microwave to store or warm up soups. I alsolutley loved it. There was a pool and Jacuzzi yaya!!

Beds were super comfortable! And I loved that they had soap,location,conditioner,body wash and shampoo in the bathroom. Plus if you forgot your toothbrush or toothpaste all you had to do was request one from the from desk! Definitely a plus!!!!!!
We only had half a toilet paper roll in the room.

Room was clean, bathroom was stocked. Breakfast was pretty good but I think we went towards the end of the breakfast window so a lot of food was out, cream cheese, etc. Breakfast team was very helpful and friendly.
The to go breakfast was no longer available, or maybe they ran out. Breakfast towards the last 45m of the window was rapidly running out of food, ran out of cream cheese. The orange juice didn't taste like orange juice. Minor stuff.

It was more than I expected. Breakfast was fabulous. Please don’t change anything.
The entrance door to our room was not working properly, the card that we had did not work well. At the end we had to go ask the person at the desk to help us out . And she did and put a work order to fix it .

Staff were so nice. The rooms were a good size, including the bathroom and shower. The bathroom supplies were Dove products and just lovely. The complimentary breakfast was well stocked and lovely. Loved the pancake machine 🥰
Nothing really to report. Everything was nice.
