Guest Reviews
- philippe (5/5): Dommage c est près du parc mais trop d inconvénients je ne recommande pas - Situé proche du parc sequoia Accueil très moyen . Nous avons eu une chambre qui se situe derrière l accueil dans un bungalow sans fenêtre dans la chambre et dans la pièce principale des rideaux fermés sans pouvoir les ouvrir . Aucun ustensile de cuisine.
- PAULA (3/5): La limpieza la clave para no seleccionar el hotel - La cercanía con el parque. La limpieza. Encontramos pelos entre las sábanas, una bola de pelos en el suelo, y la cafetera con café y moho dentro, que hemos tenido que limpiar antes de poder usarla. Todo esto ha hecho que nuestra estancia fuera incómoda, y creemos que la tarifa por noche es desproporcionada en relación con los servicios prestados. Esta información se trasladó al hotel sin respuesta por su parte, así que además de la limpieza, se suma la profesionalidad de los trabajadores. Sin duda no recomiendo la estancia
- Xiomara (1/5): -
- Jürgen (8/5): - Sehr schön gelegen, ganz nah am Nationalpark, Stühle vor dem Zimmer mit Abendsonne und Bergblick. Netter 7nd hilfsbereiter Empfang. Ausstattung in die Jahre gekommen.
- Luisa (1/5): Don’t bother - The only thing good about this place is the short drive to sequoias When we checked in, the room smelled like dirty and very humid. There was homeless hair on both beds, bedding was dirty, table wasn’t wiped for that matter neither was the fridge and micro inside or out. Bugs in the room, spider webs on lamps, the bathroom even had some one else bar of soap. The room was clearly not cleaned after previous guest. Towels that they provided were stiff, coffee make and tv didn’t work. I payed almost $500 for 2 nights. I’m sure there was bed bugs cus we are itchy. Would not stay again.
- Jean Luc (9/5): -
- Demian (7/5): Comfy and basic - Close to Sequoia park entrance Nothing to do, room too dim on light
- Laurie (7/5): - The location was amazing and accommodations weren’t bad
- Carmine (8/5): Cozy close to parks and also close care to food - Clean and nice amenities with nice location Cold water…very hard to get warm showers
- María (5/5): Meh - Nada en particular. El secador del cuarto, y que hubiese nevera y microondas No hay nada para comer o cenar y al lado hay un deli que aparentemente cierra a las 9 pero nosotros llamamos 7:30 para encargar cena Y estaba cerrado. Señaló esto porque es un sitio que está bastante de lado y en el cual no hay nada cerca y de anoche es una carretera que no se siente segura ya que es un puerto de montaña. Entonces tener que llegar desde donde vayas pensando en que tienes que llevarte la cena o conducir porque no hay nada para comer cerca no me parece cómodo. Por otra parte se nota que la dueña hace comercio cruzado con el deli de al lado, pero son unos maleducados. Se me cayó un poco de agua al suelo y a secarla con papel. El papel salió negro, así que a nivel de limpieza deja un poco que desear. En el cajón encontré panfletos que habían dejado los huéspedes anteriores. La ubicación es conveniente porque está a 10 minutos del parque
- Walter (8/5): - Wir wohnten im 2ten Stock ‚ leider gab es keinen Aufzug und wir mussten die Koffer in den 20er Stock selber tragen
- Carlos (5/5): - Location Everything needs updating
- AnaAmezcua (10/5): -
- Mikael (8/5): - Bekväm säng, på Amerikanskt motellmanér parkerar man precis utanför dörren. Kylskåp, micro, kaffekokare, hårblås, schampo som inte var fastlåst som på många andra hotell nuförtiden, ekologiskt dessutom. Väldigt nära till entrén av Seuioa nationalpark och en vidunderligt underbar kringlig väg upp till Kings Canyon & Grant grove, tag god tid på er för det finns mycket att se efter vägen! Duschen, som var svår att ställa in. Endera rödhett eller iskallt man fick vara beredd att justera hela tiden. Lyhört. Kaffet som fanns i små påsar var nog rätt så gamla som tur hade jag eget kaffe med.
- Kangsheng (5/5): -
- Theresa (9/5): Great experience. Would definitely recommend and will stay there again and again - How close it is to everything. In a good location. Everything is at walking distance. N/A
- Guest (9/5): -
- Ylva (10/5): -
- rebecca (4/5): Old, outdated, slightly dirty. - Very close to Sequoia NP entrance. Quiet , beautiful area. Old, outdated. There were ants in the bathroom, we had to crawl on the bathroom counter to turn on the AC, there were no convenient outlets, and out of the 2 that were in the room, one wouldn't hold a plug. Not as clean as I would like, there was an old, half used conditioner bottle left in the bathroom, the floor was questionable, and the baseboards very dirty ( And had been for a while).
- Daniel (1/5): DO NOT BOOK UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCE - Location The whole stay was a bad experience, the building seems that could crumble at any moment, my room was at the side of the stairs that go to the first floor, any time anybody was going upstairs or downstairs, my room trembled as it was going to fall, any step that the guests were doing upstairs sounded like my ceiling was going to fall, at the time on a future when that building will be inspected it could be condemned, keeping that property it’s a legal liability for Booking! The employee at the front office seemed just bothered by our arrival, seemed a person hired without any experience on the industry, that probably got paid less than minimum wage, the first impression on arrival to the property, was thinking that we arrived to the wrong address and, that this was an abandoned property!
- Arias (2/5): - There were mice in room
- Monique (10/5): - Everything. Easy check-in and easy check-out. Everything was perfect.
- Kai Zhen (5/5): - The location is excellent — very convenient and well-situated. Both the living room and kitchen are spacious, which made the place feel comfortable. The property feels a bit dated, which wasn't a big issue for me. However, the cleanliness was disappointing — it wasn't as clean as expected. The kitchen also had very limited cookware and utensils, and there were no kitchen towels or paper towels provided at all. Overall, there's quite a bit of room for improvement.
- Camilla (1/5): -
- Louis (8/5): - Parfait pour le prix !
- Martin (9/5): - The place is really convenient, very near to the park's gate. Good room for excellent value for the location, I rested well here, and thought about prolonging the stay. The owner communicates well on the phone numbers shown on the reception door. Received a refund for a bug in the car electric charge device, all well communicated, and processed.
- Nicholas (10/5): -
- ADOLFO (4/5): -
- Aguirre (1/5): - Nothing Everything
- Lucie (5/5): Établissement très bien situé, convenable pour une nuit. Cependant, la propreté laisse à désirer. - L’établissement est très bien situé! La propreté est à revoir.. des cheveux dans la douche, des draps pas très bien lavé…
- Stefany (9/5): Exceed my expectations - The room surprised me quite a bit; there was a fridge and a microwave, and everything was clean and organized. Very close to the entrance of Sequoia National Park, which was the objective of the trip.
- Luis (8/5): - Good place to stay , very close from sequoia entrance .
- Camilla (8/5): -
- Mary (7/5): It was a very satisfactory stay - It was good well supplied Wonderful view The office manned by someone who didn’t take much interest generally… however when we had no hot water she was v good called for help and a good person came and fixed it
- Pauline (4/5): Une excellente localisation, le reste est complètement à désiré - Seulement l’emplacement est parfait, situé à 10 minutes en voiture du parc sequoia et vous trouvez à 1 minutes à pieds un petit marketplace trop sympa, où vous pouvez prendre un petit déjeuner ou acheter pour votre lunch du midi. Vous êtes également situé à 15 minutes en voiture d’une station service Si vous arrivez après 21h vous devez aller chercher les clés à 15 minutes du vôtre, pour déposer c’est seulement dans une petite boîte à l’air libre.
1 seule serviette par personne tache et rigide, pas de serviette pour les cheveux. Pas d’équipement proposé pour sécher les cheveux et de plus l’ensemble des autres équipements à disposition ne sont pas fonctionnel : machine à café qui fut, micro-onde sale, télévision qui fonctionne pas, wifi aléatoire.
La luminosité au sein de la chambre fut compliqué car il faut choisir entre brancher votre téléphone ou la lumière.
Et le pire c’est que nous n’avions pas d’eau chaude dans la salle de bain, nous avons dû prendre des douches à l’eau froide ce qui est contraignant pour un établissement situé à côté d’un parc national où vous y séjourner pour vous baladez et faire de la rando.
- Agata Tomaszek (2/5): Wouldn’t recommend - The location was good The place wasn’t clean and there was no hot water nor working WiFi
- Riley (3/5): -
- Qianwen (1/5): Worst nightmare - The properties a scam when we are there, they could not check us in then I asked us to request a refund, and then a refund never been used issued The properties a scam when we are there, they could not check us in then I asked us to request a refund, and then a refund never been used issued
- alejandro (7/5): -
- Piotr (1/5): Z całego serca nie polecam nikomu - W hotelu najbardziej mi się podobał Niedźwiedź który krążył dookoła Wszystko mi się nie podobało zaczynając od pościeli która była bez owleczki pod którą ktoś wcześniej już spał była Brudna z plamami wszędzie kurz pleśń i grzyb obsługi nie było żadnej jedyny kontakt jaki mieliśmy z obsługą tego obiektu jak musieliśmy podjechać po odbiór kluczy 11 km
W toalecie brak papieru Toaletowego wszędzie trzy centymetrowa warstwa kurzu dobrze że miałem swój Kocyk
Ekspres do kawy był cały brudny z kawy i zakamieniomy
W całym pokoju tylko jedno Gniazdko było czynne reszta to tylko dekoracja troszkę przykurzona W łazience pleśni na suficie kurek odwody był tak Brudny że ledwo dało się odkręcić ale i tak się nie kąpałem bo nie chciałem złapać syfa W załączniku dodaje kilka zdjęć
- Elizabeth (7/5): Thank you - I likes the view
- Artemiy (1/5): I arrived for check-in, but the hotel was closed and I couldn’t stay there. - Unfortunately, nothing. I was not able to stay at the property. I arrived at the hotel in the evening, but it was closed. There was no staff on site and I was not notified in advance that check-in would be impossible. I had to urgently find another hotel and pay for a new stay. This caused a lot of stress, wasted time, and negatively affected my trip.
- Steffanie (1/5): -
- Nurkassymov (6/5): -
- Michael (8/5): - Close to the park
- Stockton (10/5): Hermoso amanecer - Tiene una vista hermosa y se escucha el río es muy hermoso. n/a
- Stephanie (5/5): - The location was perfect The tv didn’t work, the beds had crumbs from the previous people, we didn’t have any bath towels, and no hot water our last night.
- Maria (5/5): old and poorly maintained. - Near the NP It's old and poorly maintained.
Most of the lights didn't work.
Only one channel was available on the TV.
There was never anyone at the front desk.
- Wu (3/5): - Close to NP Dirty super
- Gary (7/5): Good value, suited our needs - Access to dining and close to Sequoia NP Unsure how to check because was closed after dark
- Bahareh (3/5): - Best location The room wasn't clean
- Sarah (4/5): This was a decent hotel, but I would not stay here again. - The property was acceptable for a two night stay. The area was very close to both Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks. There were mice in our hotel room. There was no one to confront about this because no one was in the hotel lobby after 9pm. Additionally, the WiFi only worked while we were close to the door.
- Suming (7/5): Good but may not match with the price. - Staff is nice and check-in time is flexible. Location is nice, near the national park. Free ice on site. Bathroom, toilet, sink are too crowded, no enough space. Only one paper coffee cup provided. Pillow is not so comfy.
- Eliska (5/5): -
- Acosta (10/5): Tiene lo necesario y es acorde a calidad/precio - La ubicación es estupenda, es verdad que los implementos para hacer el café no están en su mejor momento pero no los necesito ya que hay una estación de café muy cerca del lugar, la calefacción funciona de maravilla y no se escucha ruido, las camas son muy cómodas y para el precio que pagas (que es más económico que en otros lugares) te funciona perfectamente para tener una corta estadía si tu objetivo es alojarte en un lugar muy cercano y cómodo al SNP sin tener que invertir mucho dinero. Lo recomiendo!
- Jack (1/5): This place is a health and safety risk. Do not stay here. - Only good thing is its proximity to sequoia Upon checking in and inspecting the room, we were disgusted and disappointed to see stained floors, dirty bed sheets (stains and hairs), unvacuumed floors, and rodent droppings throughout the accomodation. The room advertised did not meet the description at all and it looked like someone was living in the room with no effort to clean it or make the room liveable. My family and I feared for our health and safety and politely asked the receptionist (Janet) that we would like to request a refund as we will not be staying somewhere where our health and safety is in jeopardy.
- Janet (8/5): I would stay there again. - The room was clean! The bed was very comfortable. The shower was hot and had great water pressure. The mini fridge was quiet. The room darkening shade was complete.
- Daniel (1/5): Could not stay as no electric outlets for cpaps! - Close to sequoia national park The bedroom was separate and there were no outlets for our cpaps! That is a medical necessity! Ask for another room and they said none available. Asked for refund and they said go through booking. Com so far booking has done nothing
- Navneet (5/5): -
- Kathy (5/5): Good location for national parks, good space, kitchen was dirty and no silverware and kitchen towels - We did not have breakfast Kitchen was dirty, garbage still in kitchen, no silverware, no kitchen towels
- Pat (9/5): A nice cozy, comfortable place to enjoy the beauties of nature at a very affordable price. - 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.
- Chunyan (4/5): location is very close to park entrance. - room has a little bad mold smell and faucet leaking, water no stop dripping which woke me up during night time. bad smell and water leaking noise
- Miller Franklin (3/5): - Clenliness, Bed spread was dirty, had dirt on it and hairs, no soap or shampoo in the room
- Françoise (1/5): A éviter ! Passez votre chemin... - L'emplacement très proche du Parc National Mauvais accueil (personne sur place à notre arrivée)
Logement sale
Pas d'eau chaude en plein hiver!!! Impossible de prendre une douche!

- Trejos (3/5): - Very close to sequoia national park! Old equipment inside! No working very well! Smell inside not good! As not clean!
- IVAN (3/5): Really dirty. There is no special parking or faster wifi like they say. - It Is close to the park Really really dirty. They need to work on that. My reservation was for a King bed - Fast wifi - Private Parking. There was not long room, not fast wifi and not private parking, just everything regular. You pay more than $15 dollars on top for everything but you didn’t get that.
- Lucie (4/5): -
- Liang (8/5): - 酒店位置绝佳,离景点很近。性价比很高,员工服务很满意,及时处理问题。 家具设施有些破旧,第一晚没有热水
- LAURENT (5/5): -
- Yongsheng (10/5): -
- Sofia (9/5): -
- Umer (7/5): Best value for money - Loved the location and staff were able to accommodate late check-in . Best value for money. Shower knob fell off. WiFi was spotty .
- Armen (3/5): Never had a such bad experience in my life. This place should be rated - "minus" ***. - location dirty bed line;, dirty bedrooms (behind the head of the beds), beds are old and unstable-they rock when you turn around at night, instead of leg of the bed there is a brick; spider webs in the bathroom; very old worn towels with threads hanging at the edge; old carpet with spots of dirt; shortage of utensils and kitchenware, there was not even a paper towel and a kettle in the kitchen..........
- Jorge (7/5): -
- Yuliia (10/5): -
- Debora (7/5): -
- Monika (1/5): Nicht buchen - Nichts Die Zimmer waren total heruntergekommen, hatte nichts mehr mit den Bildern der Booking Seite gemeinsam. Es war so schmutzig, dass wir nach 30 Minuten uns entschieden haben uns ein anderes Hotel für die Nacht zu suchen. Im Bett gab es Blutflecken, Haare überall im Waschbecken und die Dusche - ohne Worte.
- Vladimir (9/5): -
- Hajnalka (1/5): Borzalmasan koszos, visszataszító szállás!! - Az elhelyezkedése jó volt. Nem tetszett a koszos szőnyeg, az egérszaros ablakpárkány, a hajszálakkal tele ágy, a használt szappan a mocskos
fiókban. Ilyen koszos, igénytelen szálláson még nem voltam és nem is maradtunk sokáig, mert gyorsan kerestünk
egy másikat és elmenekültünk erről a helyről
- S. (2/5): - It was dirty and very noisy.
- guillaume (6/5): -
- Malcolm (1/5): VERY disappointing - The location We don't mind staying at an old place but an old place that's dirty is another thing.
Ants in the sugar.
Mouse droppings in the bath.
The room hasn't been dusted in who knows how long.
The sides of the bed were dirty. It looked like someone had wiped their shoes on it.
The whole place looks like the staff couldn't care less.
- Sarah (1/5): Unfortunately, this was not a good experience as it didn't feel secure or clean. - Instructions were clear It was not clean - the shower had dead bugs on the floor and the bedding stained. I ended up skipping the shower and not using the pillows or blankets.
It also wasn't very secure. Only a doorknob lock, no deadbolt or chain.
- LIDYA (6/5): Foi uma estadia boa. Apenas uma noite para chegar até o Sequoia National Park. - Cama muito confortável. Nada.
- Anthony (7/5): -
- Steven (3/5): TV did not work. Hidaway bed was broken not enough utinsals to do anything . Carpet was dirty. - Nice room Large and comfortable
- Diefenbach (6/5): - Perfekte Lage Nicht wirklich komfortabel
- Michelle (1/5): - When we arrived they had moved us to a hotel six miles away from where we booked. Half of my family was at the river inn and the other half was at the western holiday lodge on completely opposite ends of town. They told us that we would have a pool and jacuzzi at the western. The pool was not heated and the water was filthy and the jacuzzi was not working.
- Anna (2/5): - Surkea taso hintaan nähden. Huone epäsiisti, järkyttävä määrä pölyä lipaston päällä ja lattia hiekkainen. Kahvikuppejakin piti erikseen käydä kysymässä. Pienellä vaivalla paikasta saisi viihtyisämmän. Yleisilme nuhjuinen.
- Margaret (9/5): - Location was a plus We came across a few ants here and there but was not a breaker
