Quite a distance from Yosemite. Reception not well sign posted

Very rustic but no bugs! Good exercise climbing up and down the stairs...

It is 40 minutes from Yosemite National Park entrance. I knew that before I booked the bed.

The cabin/dorm room was clean. There were four toilets in the cabin for 12 people so there was no wait at all. Food at the restaurant was hearty. There is a Yosemite Shuttle Bus stop at the entrance of the property.

Lots of up&down walkways and stairs with only one correct path to room

Interesting mixed feeling of summer camp, family resort, excellent freshly prepared food, cafeteria style.

The location is very good. Only 50 min drive to Yosemite West entrance.

It does not provide free breakfast. The room is a little bit small.

Although it's 100% my fault, the place is not inside the National Park. Keep that in mind. The AC is quite loud.

Really nice place, great food.

It's not so near the Park entrance.

Good food, opened almost all the day.

Close to Yosemite national park for an affordable price. Great restaurant (better than most American cuisine restaurants) and a possibility to cook in a well equipped shared kitchen. The showers and toilets were als very clean and big. We really enjoyed the spa too.

There was a big shared bathroom complex, but for some reason our tent got assigned a different one that only had one shower and one toilet shared by quite some people, which wasn't ideal. Especially since the shower head was hanging loose. But the actual bathroom complex itself was great we heard from others.

We were very pleasantly surprised by the great quality food in the restaurant of the resort and the spa. We didn't expect it when we booked the tent room. Location was also very good. We were in the national park very quickly.

The bunk bed was making a lot of noise.

The lights on pathways at night could have been better. Bathroom was a bit far away.

Good location, nice little tent accommodation. Good wifi, clean bathrooms, and showers. Great value for what we paid for.

The food in the restaurant

The location was a bit farther than we anticipated, about 45 minutes to get the the entrance of Yosemite. No coffee in the room!

Cabin-like feel in between the trees, restaurant on site, room was clean

However, a few things could be improved. Some fellow guests were not very respectful — leaving shoes in the room and causing strong smells, which made the shared space less pleasant. It would be great if the staff could gently remind guests of basic shared-room etiquette. Also, I found it a bit disappointing that earplugs were not offered for free, as is often the case in hostels. Charging for them felt a bit excessive.

I stayed at this hostel during a last-minute trip to Yosemite, and overall it was a good experience. The location is excellent — perfect for accessing the park without the high prices of accommodations inside Yosemite. The hostel is well organized, clean, and the staff were welcoming and helpful throughout my stay. It definitely felt like a well-run place.

Depending where you stay it might be a long walk to the bathroom. There are a lot of stairs and hills, not a complaint, but just know what to expect. Pillows were too flat, not containing enough fluff. If you are hiking all day, you might not want to hike to the restroom in the middle of the night or climb hills and steps. Once again not a complaint, but just know what to expect.

I like the area and the way everything is situated, all the buildings and such. The staff are wonderful, especially in the restaurant. We chose a little tent hut where you just have a bed a chair, table and a lamp, nothing else. The bed was fairly comfortable, but you might want to bring your own pillows or ask the staff for more. The A/C worked fine and they even had a little heater. The room was clean and free of any cobwebs or any kind of bugs The bathrooms, are not actually that public, this includes the set up for the showers each room has it's own private stall with a key code, really ingenious for privacy and comfort, there even is a room to do laundry which also includes several sinks. There is a restaurant there that serves amazingly delicious home cooked style food with large portions. A must visit!

Going up the stairs was pretty brutal. But I am just a sedentery person hahaha

Love the remote area.
