We stayed in a standard, and very nice, motel room. It was plenty spacious, had a mini-fridge and coffee maker, and is situated in a beautiful valley with terrific mountain views. The room was very clean and the beds very comfortable. The only negative was the lack of a microwave. One thing to know if you plan to stay there as a base for visiting Sequoia National Park is that the drive up to the park is a climb involving miles of constant switchbacks that take awhile. This is obviously not the fault of the hotel...just something to be aware of. All in all, this was a good place that we'd recommend to others.

Great location, but the maintenance is really poor. The place needs quite a bit of TLC. Also the tub is very slippery.

For the price and location, we were satisfied. We made the booking a few hours before as we decided to visit the Trail of the 100 Giants in the Sequoia Forest. The dated one-story motel and our room was pretty much what we expected. The room is large, with a renovated bathroom. The bathroom is on the smaller side, but the shower is very nicely tiled. Coffee pot, microwave, and fridge all worked. Picnic tables and a grill are on the premises and we were lucky to be invited to a feast.

Close to Sequoia national park. There are places to eat nearby. Good to have a fridge, a freezer section would great so ice packs can be used to keep food cool when out.

First, when I made the reservation on Expedia, the price was listed at around $280. However, upon arrival at the hotel, I was informed by the hotel management that there was a mistake and was asked to pay approximately $350. This felt very dishonest on the part of the hotel management. Second, the property itself is old, dirty, and noisy. The bed frame was propped up with a brick for balance, which speaks volumes about the poor condition of the room. Additionally, the AC was extremely loud, making it almost impossible to sleep. For $350 per night, this is the worst hotel I have ever stayed.

There were zero positives. There were gnats all over, dead on window sill and flying around room. Shower was dirty and honestly don’t think sheets were changed. Second room they offered was in same exact condition. There was zero effort in cleanliness. I have photos to show for evidence and that there is no exaggeration of complaint.

The room was dirty in general with the carpeting dusty and the room itself was musty. When we went to take showers immediately after checking in and after the day in Sequoia we found that both face towels had hair on them that were different colors, the hand towel for the sink had stains on it and the large towel was threadbare. The room itself was dated, but the cleanliness is what gave this review a 1-star. We felt bad for the girl checking us in because she was surrounded by flies in a small room.

The king bed unit was filthy and disgusting. Wish I could show you the images I took. Dirty walls and floors, walls that are semi-patched, bathroom has rusty crap everywhere, many (old) windows without window coverings and torn screens, cheap locks on front and back doors, limited TV stations, very limited (dial-up) internet, old love sofa with no support, loose sockets, cobwebs in corners, rust on stovetop, no place to set suitcases on, mismatched paint job and joining of walls and ceiling...must I continue? This is a DUMP!!! Reserved and paid for two nights, stayed one. Left very early.

Property was close to the National Park entrance. That was only positive for this stay. Nothing was like in the pictures. Room was extremely dirty and bathroom was like from horror movies - we refrained from using it. Everything is down to the last. Don’t stay there. It’s not worth the money you spend for it.
