The staff and food were great upon check in and check, the security part of it is the worry for me.
Pros:

The breakfast was good and had a good selection.

Cons:

There was big altercation in the room next to us where it sounded like it got physical between a man and a woman. It went on most of the night and into the next day with no check up or anything on the room happened which seemed like it was allowed. This put my fiance in an uncomfortable and unsafe state. They were really loud so I know the staff could have heard them or anybody else for that matter which they were probably not wanting to report it or too frightened to. I woke up at 6 in the morning as I am used to sleeping through these types of conditions and had under a sleep machine (been in the Army almost 20 years) and reported it to the front desk and which seemed like the couple left. I asked about it prior to me checking out and the front desk lady just simply said they probably were just arguing. In my opinion, it did not seem like unsafe matters or these type of situations were a priority at this hotel as my Fiance did not get any rest and was worried most of the night due to the banging and when I woke up sounded pretty physical. So that was a big red flag to me as this situation should have been addressed right away as I had my Fiance, and two kids including a baby less than 1 years old and this does not seem like the place I would go back to if these situations are allowed.

We were there for just the one night before driving up to Yosemite.
Pros:

All else was okay.

Cons:

The toilet was too short. There was no railing to assist me with standing up from the toilet. Had an issue with the shower floor. I was looking forward to scrambled eggs, not the cheese choice.

We will be back this coming Christmas if our room is away from the HWY side.
Pros:

the location is perfect for visiting family in the area. Place is clean and the staff is always friendly. We almost always stay ere on Christmas Day.

Cons:

We would have preferred to have a room on the other side of the building as the traffic noise was a bit too much for us lite sleepers.

It was clean and comfortable.
Pros:

It was clean but electrical outlets seem too slow to charge our devices, iPhone, iPad, Iwatch etc. Only electrical outlet that worked was in the bathroom.

Cons:

The shower hot water took long time to get hot. The water pressure was weak.

Comfortable and convenient!
Pros:

I loved the spacious room and blackout curtains! We were so comfortable and enjoyed our room.

Cons:

Staying in the room above the entrance meant loud music all day (starting before 8am). It was very hard for our son to nap and it woke us up in the morning. That was a bit disappointing, but we still enjoyed our stay.

Cons:

I was in room 214 right above the main entrance. You could hear everything in the lobby, including the lobby music not allowing me to sleep. The black out curtains were not working. The pool was supposed to be open but it was locked. After traveling for over 6 hours and all you want to do is rest, avoid room 214. Wish I could get my money back.
