The value for money was quite good. The room felt like it had a newly installed floor and freshly painted walls. It was fairly clean — a couple of ants didn’t bother us. There was always hot water available. Outside each room, there was a table and two chairs, and most importantly — in this heat — there was a free ice maker, so we could constantly get ice for our trips. That was very convenient and saved us from spending extra money. The location was great — very close to the park, just about a 4-minute drive. For us, that was super convenient since we didn’t have to waste extra time on the road.

It’s difficult to adjust the shower faucet for hot and cold water.

I had my expectations super low after reading all the reviews but didn’t experience any of the negatives in the reviews. The furniture was so nice and room so spacious. Saved a ton of money and payed less than last time we came to see the big trees at a different place that was way smaller and not even close to as nice.

50 minutes from General Sherman tree and just over an hour to Moro rock but the drive is really fun if you like curvy roads.

I loved how close it was to the entrance of sequoia national park. It was great for the price. Quiet. I took my boys and we were all super happy with it especially after hiking all day in the park.

Our ceiling was leaky in the morning only in one spot though.

The location was perfect for visiting Sequoia NP, we got a free upgrade to an apartment, which was nice, and the host was lovely.

It lacked proper silverware, dishes, general stuff for the kitchen. Also it was slightly creepy at night and the front door knob didn’t work properly, but given the cheap price we didn’t expect it to be luxurious.

It was the perfect location for visiting Sequoia NP. It was a quiet, comfy place to stay. A very nice market/restaurant right next door. We enjoyed our stay very much!

No complaints at all.

Perfect location to visit Sequoia. We arrived very late at night and the check in was smooth. We picked up the keys in a location nearby. We just spent the night there. It is not a new fancy Inn but good enough to wake up near the park and arrive before the crowd.

All ok! The facility is not new, but good enough to spend a night near the park.

Great place to spend a night prior to visiting Sequoia National Park. The rooms were spacious and comfortable. Good quality hygiene products.

The bed blanket was not clean upon arrival.

It’s a really good location, about 5min from the entrance to Sequoia NP. It seems like the owners learn from the reviews because the things mentioned in previous reviews are improved.

The location was close to Sequoia National Park. We got upgraded to an apartment, and it was very spacious. The bed was very comfortable. The store nearby had decent food - their cowboy burrito was a blast.

It is located close to the sequoia National park which is very convenient. The small restaurant next to it was also very useful.

The furniture was a bit old.
