Our free upgrade was great and a surprise. The pooland hot tubs were fantastic. Everything was very clean and the gift store had a great variety. The Canyon Grill next door was very average and wasnt that good but made due since it was the only eating place near by.

For where the location is, right by Yosemite.. it's very convinient. Close to gas stations as well, the hotel itself has a snack shack. Better than camping to me!

Room was beautiful and spacious and great location. My room refrigerator was leaking when I arrived and although staff was informed, it was still leaking when I left the next day, so not addressed. Staff when I was checking out was friendlier than checking in. Restaurant only had one floor employee, so a little hectic/slow but good food.
