It’s kind of a pain to get to the second floor , because I think you can only walk around one side to get there. But the view of the Main Street and the historic nature of the building or extremely cool! Very nice, helpful staff.

The room was fine. I didn’t really take advantage of the free breakfast until the last day. It looked like a good spread. I mainly used the hotel as a base for four days in Yosemite. It was still almost two hours out so made for long days.

What do you expect from an 1850s building? The property and building were cool but it did feel like a place trying to be something else. The pool was closed and disgusting and while I did not eat the breakfast it looked like it was homemade with care. It was neat to stay there and the price wass reasonable. Not a family resort by any means.

The hotel’s furniture is old-styled and the rooms are a little cramped. The air conditioner is small and cools the room slowly. The place is clean and tidy overall, but it’s overpriced compared to hotels of the same standard.
