Tenaya at Yosemite
What stood out, was the employees of the restaurant, Daniel at the bar was spot on on the drinks and excellent service. Our server at the table was very polite and very good with customer service. We didn't have a good check in, we had to wait for one hour to get our room.

Rooms were comfy. The building does show its age a bit, but we only used the rooms for sleeping and showering.
