First, when I made the reservation on Expedia, the price was listed at around $280. However, upon arrival at the hotel, I was informed by the hotel management that there was a mistake and was asked to pay approximately $350. This felt very dishonest on the part of the hotel management. Second, the property itself is old, dirty, and noisy. The bed frame was propped up with a brick for balance, which speaks volumes about the poor condition of the room. Additionally, the AC was extremely loud, making it almost impossible to sleep. For $350 per night, this is the worst hotel I have ever stayed.

There were zero positives. There were gnats all over, dead on window sill and flying around room. Shower was dirty and honestly don’t think sheets were changed. Second room they offered was in same exact condition. There was zero effort in cleanliness. I have photos to show for evidence and that there is no exaggeration of complaint.

The room was dirty in general with the carpeting dusty and the room itself was musty. When we went to take showers immediately after checking in and after the day in Sequoia we found that both face towels had hair on them that were different colors, the hand towel for the sink had stains on it and the large towel was threadbare. The room itself was dated, but the cleanliness is what gave this review a 1-star. We felt bad for the girl checking us in because she was surrounded by flies in a small room.

The king bed unit was filthy and disgusting. Wish I could show you the images I took. Dirty walls and floors, walls that are semi-patched, bathroom has rusty crap everywhere, many (old) windows without window coverings and torn screens, cheap locks on front and back doors, limited TV stations, very limited (dial-up) internet, old love sofa with no support, loose sockets, cobwebs in corners, rust on stovetop, no place to set suitcases on, mismatched paint job and joining of walls and ceiling...must I continue? This is a DUMP!!! Reserved and paid for two nights, stayed one. Left very early.

Property was close to the National Park entrance. That was only positive for this stay. Nothing was like in the pictures. Room was extremely dirty and bathroom was like from horror movies - we refrained from using it. Everything is down to the last. Don’t stay there. It’s not worth the money you spend for it.

Not only was no one at the Inn when we arrived at 310 pm, the Inn looks as though no one has taken care of it in sometime. Both outside and in the rooms were poorly maintained. I had booked the hotel for three nights and left after one. I would not recommend this place for anyone!

Gross, Seedy. Thoroughly disappointed.
Not maintained for even the bare minimum. The young girl checking me in couldn't explain an extra misc charge on my receipt. Lucky reading reviews I was privy to this random extra charge that I couldn't get out of. Overall we stayed only one night and lost the money on the second night, the carpet is disgusting I didn't want to walk barefoot in the room. Beer cans and garbage left outside of the rooms. Just awful, felt so grimy and dirty in the room, especially for the price, as the drive from the hotel back into the park is so long, steep and windy and feels forever it's just not worth it for this exorbitant priced run down motel. Zero on upkeep and cleanliness.

DO NOT BOOK here The amount you booked thru expedia app is not accepted and they will charge you a different amount on site. I do not understand how is this advertised on the app. Be careful! Do research thoroughly before booking. There is nothing that expedia can do. As for the room/ property, it should be rated as a motel, not an inn. Their check-in time is 3:00 PM. That is literally 3:00 PM. If you come in 30 minutes prior so you can check with the customer service, there is no one in the office. You’ll have to wait in the hot car until someone will come to the office by 3:00 PM. So plan your travel accordingly. The sheet was dirty, bedsheets showed hair underneath the pillow and there were crumbs around. Dust was all over the vanity area.
