"Loved our stay here! Elegant old hotel with updated everything...but still retains a classic charm. Room was comfortable and clean with all new fittings and fixtures. (I was kind of hoping for a more antique/vintage/original feel, but once we were settled in, I appreciated the modernity of all the appointments). Cocktail from the bar was fantastic! The seating areas off the lobby were comfortable and pleasant to use. Dinner at the restaurant was elegant. Breakfast at the cafe was delicious (coffee and savory pastry). Staff were all friendly, helpful and accommodating. Highly recommend."

"The hotel has a kitchenette, dishwasher, kitchenware, and two people are very good for simple meals. Health is very good and the big bed is comfortable. We went to Yosemite for one night and came back the next day and stayed for another night. Some rooms will be noisy and fast."

"The first day of the transition hotel, overall satisfaction, next to the gas station, there is a 711, there is a gym, a small swimming pool. I just felt that the sheets were not changed by the cover, there was no feeling of dryness in the new sheets, and I was too lazy to communicate with the front desk."

"Overall, I was satisfied. After all, it is a Marriott brand. I saw the most unique sofa bed. It turns out that the size of the sofa bed depends mainly on the size of the sofa. I checked in at 9pm. The hotel elevator broke down. The front desk customer service helped me change the room on the first floor. However, it was still being repaired the next morning. Guests staying on the second and third floors had to take the stairs. I hope they don't have too heavy luggage."

"This time I used Ctrip to book hotels during my trip in the United States. I compared priceline with booking and tripadviser. I found that Ctrip's offer is still quite competitive, and the information is basically accurate, including parking fees and whether meals are waiting. I rarely come back for reviews before. This time I will refer to the user reviews here before booking a room. I feel that it is generally relevant, so I also plan to spend some time to leave my personal feelings. Although subjective, I hope I have a little reference. On the way to Yosemite, I checked into the hotel on Christmas Eve, but I didn't feel any Christmas atmosphere. The hotel’s facilities are relatively new, the quilt is comfortable, the breakfast variety is acceptable, and drinks are available throughout the day as soon as you enter the lobby."
