Lake View Lodge

Great staff and conveniently located about a half an hour from the east gate of Yosemite as well as the ghost town of Bodie

The room was very clean but incredibly overpriced. It was a large, well appointed room but the AC was very difficult to use. It kept turning off, no matter what setting it was on and the room would become very hot, very quickly. The bed was too soft and sagged a bit in the middle which gave me a terrible backache. My son traded beds with me but that bed was saggy as well. The pillows were completely flat. I only slept about 3 good hours and spent the rest of the night tossing and turning trying to get comfortable, then getting up to fiddle with the air conditioner because it was too hot in the room. It was really difficult to pull the handles to turn on the water and then it splattered everywhere when it finally worked! The numbers on the doors were difficult to see at night and my son had to walk around looking for our room since there were no lights. We checked in around 10 pm and check out was 10am. I asked for an hour later checkout and was told no. So for a 12 hour stay this cost over $220 and that was after a discount for being a veteran. I guess since all the other motels were either closed or full this one could charge whatever they wanted. Rather than risk driving down the mountain on an unfamiliar road, in the dark and while tired, desperate people will pay what they have to in order to stay safe. But it isn't right...

This is truly one of the best hotels I have stayed in compared to the value for money. Management people were extremely courteous. It's only 10 minutes walk from the beach. They have free breakfast in the morning and wine in the evening and have a Jacuzzi and Sauna.

Excellent clean (cabin) room but... Rude on the phone. A propane gas stovetop with no way to light it, and when we asked the desk they had no supplies and the excuse was, "People keep taking them." Really? How much is a book of matches? Thermostat did not work. Had to adjust manually during the night. Neighbors bright porch light stayed on all night and kept our bed brightly lit.
