One of the best greetings I’ve ever seen. Fin was a star, couldn’t help enough, full of information and a really lovely person. After a long and sometimes winding journey it was a delight to be made to feel so relaxed and welcome. The room (8), was great for us. We shared two doubles for the family and it had everything we needed. Comfy beds and very sweet look and feel. Plenty of resources in the lobby to make drinks and snacks to join them. Overall it was fab and totally recommend.

A great one night stay while headed into Yosemite! Very friendly, nice, and helpful staff. I love that they are dog friendly! Complimentary tea and coffee, then donuts in the morning! Very cozy rooms that are comfortable and quiet! I love that they use real keys! Very close to local food and drink as well!
