Ear plugs required

Worked out well since it looks like the highest priced hotel in this small town. Iv never seen earplugs in a hotel before and didn’t realize we needed them until a herd of bison and the Clydesdales moved in above around 9 pm Ceiling was rattling

We stayed here during a trip to Yosemite—about 35 miles out, so be prepared for a bit of a drive. The surrounding area has a lot of charm. The hotel itself was fine—clean enough and comfortable, though a bit dated. Breakfast was your typical hotel spread with make-your-own waffles and sausage and biscuits. Nothing fancy, but it did the job. We slept Okay and really enjoyed exploring the town, especially the local history museum and old jail. Overall, a pleasant stay.

Upside & Downside

The hotel is pretty good, room is comfortable and the staff are quite friendly. The lobby offers a nice coffee/tea/hot chocolate machine with quality choices. Now, the downside hotel requires guests with pets to sign an agreement that if you leave your pet alone in the room they will have the local shelter pick up your pet! Completely unacceptable! Let’s be real, you can’t take a pet into restaurant's, grocery stores etc. So there will be times they need to be in the room alone. Also one of my two nights a drunk man was peeing in the drain near my room as I walked up! Granted that’s not on the hotel, it’s on that particular guest, or visitor. But, I felt horrified and uneasy.
