Great restaurant, shame about the accomodation

It had a terrible smell. When we checked out, we were told that they thought something had died in the drainage system but could not find it.
The cabin was surrounded by waste, including packing boxes and latex gloves.
The dinner in the restaurant was great, with terrific service.
Don't buy the breakfast from the front desk. It is expensive and mostly inedible.

Narrow Gauge Inn, a unique find near Yosemite.

The mattress was the most comfortable of the three and the bathroom was very well laid out. The balcony looked out over a brook and forest - very quiet and peaceful. The room price was also reasonable unlike the ridiculously overpriced Ahwahnee and Tenaya Lodge.

Room was clean and very comfortable. The deck provide us with a fabulous view of the mountains. Customer service staff are nice, accommodating and friendly.

Stay somewhere else. Really bad condition and terrible value for money

Published Date: Jul, 29, 2023 Travel Date: Jul, 1, 2023 Rating: 1 Please only read recent reviews. This place used to be good but has severely deteriorated. It is tired and in need of a lot of investment. Rustic granny chic has its place but not if she’s forgotten to dust or maintain the property. The furnishings are now just old. The room was large with lots of mismatched furniture and old rugs. There’s was lots of dust and the coffee machine was dirty inside and out.
The bathroom needed a major refurb. The bath was old, rusty around the plug and had mould around the mastic. The shower screen was from the 1980s, very old and worn. The toilet set was loose. The hot water took 5 minutes to come through and then there was nothing between scalding or freezing. The staff tried to fix it but couldn’t. They also said no one else had experienced issues with the water but reading other reviews I now know others had found the same so I feel they were lying to us. The restaurant was also closed and we were given different reason from 2 members of staff. The breakfast on offer at extra cost is an inedible microwave sandwich.
The grounds and the pool area were neglected and in poor condition.
We paid $300 per night and they did not even make the beds or empty the trash. For this money stay in Oakhurst or Tenaya Lodge.
Good points - tv and Wi-Fi was good. Bed was comfortable and there eas was a large fridge.

Clean, but sad.

Pros: Location to Yosemite, quite.
Cons: Dated and just a bit sad. Wooden banquet chairs as furniture, broken bed frame, blankets with burn marks, some light bulbs missing, cloudy pool. All that for a premium price.
Just overall tired, worn out, dated and sad.
