Spacious room , convenient location with dining nearby. My only complaint was the floor noise from above party on 4th floor. They walked back and forth all night. I guess thats why they left a pair of ear plugs. We spoke to 2 different front desk employees and they were both super friendly ! We were about 1 hour from Yosemite National Park but the drive went by quickly.

There's no breakfast! Complimentary breakfast is a huge contributer in choosing a hotel. The lady at the desk said "Sorry, we only have coffee & tea. We keep telling Hotels.com that we don't have breakfast, but they won't fix it. " The pool was pretty gross, but there were towels out so we didn't need to use the room towels. The elevator didn't work & we got woken up in the middle of the night by police officers looking for a suspects cell phone. We go to mariposa often & won't be back to this hotel.
