“In my opinion, this is a fantastic find for families visiting Mariposa, with upgraded rooms reflecting the High Sierra. I think the complimentary breakfast and central location add considerable value, especially given the access to Yosemite. While not directly in Yosemite, it provides a comfortable base with welcome amenities after a day exploring.”
