It was a one night stay with my kids and husband on our way to Yosemite. We got there around 9 PM and saw four guys hanging out by the dumpster right when we enter into the parking lot of the hotel. The room was very basic which we were aware of. But the pungent smell wouldn’t go away for hours. And the middle of night they were you guys hanging outside chatting away. I couldn’t sleep at all. I will not recommend to anybody traveling with their family.

Checking in was great as we entered the room the smell was extremely awful. The room was infested with fly's and gnats. After speaking to the manager, she offered us a another room. The second room was just as bad. the stench was almost untorerable, the flys
