Highly recommend this hotel. Very warm welcome. Clean , quiet room in a lovely setting.
Pros:

Quiet room, very clean.
Table and chairs to dine, good facilities.
Had a generator as most hotels in the area do not and there was a regional power cut lasting a few days.

It worked fine but I was disappointed with my stay
Pros:

The proximity to Yosemite was great, the room was clean, and the maintenance staff was exceptionally kind.

Cons:

Front desk was not helpful and the internet service was abysmal. It was very frustrating to have to work from my car because the wifi signal in the room was so weak.

Prima lodge!
Pros:

We verbleven hier 1 nacht op doorreis naar El Portal. We reden vanuit San Francisco hier naartoe en kwamen in het donker aan. Eerste indruk was positief. Alles zag er netjes uit. We konden de auto voor de deur van onze kamer parkeren. De kamer zelf was comfortabel, de bedden waren goed. We hebben hier een prima overnachting gehad.

Cons:

We hebben geen echte op of aanmerkingen.

-Laundry facilities available although I did not need to use it
-Restaurant right next door with wide ranging menu that accommodates different dietary needs
-Ample lighting in room
-Pool on property. didin't use it but it looked clean and well maintained

Cons:

-The mattress was a little soft
-Not the property's fault but the neighbors were loud - so bring ear plugs
