Reviews

Convenient location for Yosemite Park but not worth the value

Pros: Free parking. Accesible kitchen. Fast checkin and checkout.

Cons: One toilet is shared for many people. Showers are outside of the house. Small rooms. No lockers. Some rooms need a deep cleaning.

Clean, Comfortable, and Well-Maintained Hostel

Pros: We stayed in a private room and were pleasantly surprised by how clean and well-kept everything was. The room smelled fresh, the bedding was clean, and the shared kitchen was spacious and fully equipped, with a clean refrigerator and plenty of room to cook and store food. Bathrooms were consistently clean, and even the outdoor restrooms and showers were well maintained. For a hostel, the overall cleanliness and upkeep were impressive.

Cons: The only drawback is the location, it’s a bit farther from the Yosemite National Park entrance than expected, so plan for extra drive time. Otherwise, it’s a great place to stay.

Pros: Most of the guests staying here are going to Yosemite National Park for a visit. The small town has a supermarket, a convenience store and a gas station. The owner has prepared a lot of materials and provided a lot of help. There are also coffee machines, tottlers and tea bags. It's very considerate. It's good to choose to stay here next time

I recommend this place 100% if you want to go to Yosemite and want to spare money, the town is amazing, perfect location

Pros: Everything was perfect but only one thing, the bed.

Cons: The bed in the private room was extremely hard, we don’t usually leave these types of comments on such details but it was impossible for us to sleep all night so we had to sleep on the floor.

Great balance between quality and price.

Pros: I Liked how quick the check in was. I arrived 9 pm and I got all the instructions easy and quick. The place is quiet and clean. People friendly and caring about rules.

Cons: Having in mind it is a Hostel, I would say it is perfect for what I paid and expected. Very comfortable, clean, quiet and close to downtown and Yosemite. I have nothing to complain about.

Nice enough for one night

Pros: We stayed in a private room for a night which was comfortable. There was one bathroom indoors, but the rest of the showers were outdoors and a bit cramped.

Cons: It’s a fairly long distance from the main sights of Yosemite, so don’t let the name of the hostel fool you. We used it as a base the night before we drove into Yosemite proper.
