Yosemite Sierra Inn

A great room at a great price. Comfortable bed. AC/​heater is quiet. Microwave, refrigerator, coffee maker, iron, and hair dryer. Friendly staff and free continental breakfast (mainly just cereal). Only 20 miles to the south gate of Yosemite. Several restaurants nearby. Denny’s is a few steps away. Oakhurst is a nice little town. Would stay there again.

I had high hopes for this hotel. Got a great groupon deal and planned 2 days at Yosemite. Got to the hotel around 11am, check in is at 3pm. Was told we had to pay a bs $ 25 «early check in fee.» The «free hot breakfast» is a few pieces of stale bread laid out next to dispensers of value brand cereal and one pitcher of empty milk that is never refilled. Skip it and just drive to the Starbucks a few streets away. The hotel room, which is essentially a motel room, looks like a bad scene from a 70’s porno. Our room, which happened to be on the first floor, went straight out onto the street. I’d suggest dishing out and extra 50 bucks and staying at somewhere descent.

Decent prices for the area and pretty nice rooms. It’s about what I expected. Gave only 4 stars because their check in time seems a little on the late side. I would stay there again.

If I could, I would rate this little inn 4.5 stars, but in my opinion 4 is too low. I was really impressed by the inn, especially since I had low expectations. I was very surprised to find that our room had a newly remodeled bathroom and a very (oh very) comfortable bed. The furniture and bedding was a little outdated, and the «breakfast» could have been better, but my experience overall was really great! I will stay here next time we come to visit Yosemite. It’s about an hour and a half from the valley! They do have a small pool, and are located right next to Denny’s.

Ok, remember when you were a kid and you watched the GI Joe commercials on Saturday morning and Joe raced down zip lines into dangerous mud pits and helicopters swoop in for the rescue and rushed Joe to headquarters to save the day?
Then you bought GI Joe only to find all that TV stuff was fake and it cost a ton of money to get all the extras. You felt RIPPED OFF!
That’s the way I felt after I checked into this MOTEL. It’s old. It’s represented as an Inn but it’s just a cheap old Motel that the owner is trying to squeeze the last bit of life from. The rooms are small. The beds are OK and it does have A/​C (wall unit), a fridge, and Microwave. All of which are below average in quality and function. The place has three floors but unless you are on the ground floor you will have to drag your bags up flights of stairs. The pool is in the parking lot and the free breakfast is cold cereal, waffles, and if you are quick a piece of fruit. No eggs, no bacon or meat, no yogurt plus it was about 95 degrees in the tiny airless room. SUCKED! For $ 59 a night I would be thrilled but at over $ 200 a night for 3 adults in 1 room I won’t be back. Promise!

This was one of the worse place I have ever stayed in. We paid 700 $ for 3 nights and they have charged us 25 $ for late checkin even though we called in advance. Breakfast was a joke, no eggs no bagels and cheapest coffee. Common restroom (next to breakfast area) was disgusting. Not recommended at all, waste of money.

Bed was comfortable. Room had a nice view, but walkway is between you and the view. No elevator so had to carry my wife’s heavy suitecase one flight of stairs. A little too noisy, especially when other guests walk by, but also from room above. Breakfast is mostly a joke. Discounts for several local restaurants. Convenient location.
