It was nice to stay at a nostalgic motel from the 60-70’s. The food was very good overall. A bit on the pricey side but the location to Sequoia Nation Park made up for it. The people were wonderful and very friendly. We enjoyed our stay.

The property is not maintained, 1 of the rooms smells like damp towel, which we didn’t use and kept the door closed to make sure the whole place don’t smell. The kitchen is good, location is good. The food at the restaurant is great and servers are nice. Wish they maintain the place better, perhaps changing the carpet will make it feel a little bit more homey and feel cleaner.
