Motel was acceptable but a bit expensive for the lack of amenities. Looks updated. Bed was comfortable. Bit odd with the wall heater not working but there was a portable A/C heater unit. Cute touches in room.

The motel room was very clean, but located right next to the highway was very loud. Got a little chilly and could not figure out how to turn the heat on. Located a short walk for coffee and breakfast in the morning.

This hotel was super clean and cute. (Thank you Maria.) The beds were comfortable. The sink is not in the bathroom which is a little uncomfortable with brushing your teeth with friends. The worst thing about our stay was no heat!!! And it was down in the 40's with rain. We froze. The pilot light had not been lit yet we guessed. And being right on the highway it is super loud with traffic. They do have ear plugs if needed. I am sure the few hotels on that highway are like that.

Odd layout

The office is across a busy, four-lane highway from the room we stayed in, with fast moving traffic.

Its close to Yosemite National park. Town is very walkable and has gift shops also. I like the A/C was already on to keep the room cool when I arrived. I liked the TV channel options. refrig and microwave were very convenient for my breakfast.

Budget option with good value

The room was clean, and had a comfortable bed. This room was a great deal among more pricey options. If you are visiting Yosemite, you won't be in the room much anyway, so all you need is cleanliness and safety. There was a noisy neighbor, and I had to wait until morning to have staff talk to him.Service is not immediate, so if there is a problem in the middle of the night, it's going to have to wait until morning.

Although its architecture and layout makes it looks like a old seedy motel from the exterior, we were pleasantly surprised when we walked in to what appeared to be a recently renovated room. It even had a fresh paint smell. The furniture, linens, & fixtures are modern and the room was very clean. The bed was comfortable and the ceiling fan made for a good night’s sleep. Within a half block is a good breakfast restaurant, decent but pricy bbq, and a minimart. The town doesn’t have much else to offer but the sunset was gorgeous over mono lake and can be seen from the parking lot. The downsides were the highway noise though traffic greatly diminished between 11pm-7am. (We couldn’t hear the other guests unless they were talking outside the room. )We wish there were EV chargers. Otherwise this motel was a great find. We would stay here again.

This was a nice place to stay after our day in Yosemite. Check-in is self service, but was easy. Room was small, but clean. Restaurants easy walk down the street.

Better than expected! Was a good stopover point in our travels, we booked a room without much in the way of cooking and there’s not many good options nearby for groceries or to eat out- but that’s expected in such a quiet area. Would stay again

Clean room and comfortable bed.

The cheapest room was right next to 395. I did not mind noise but morning Sun through pseudo stein glass window was bit anointing. Clean room, comfortable bed.
