“This inn has a great advantage: its central location in Mariposa, a historical town near Yosemite. The rooms are recently upgraded with a rustic vibe, but some past guests point to small inconveniences. Expect a decent cold breakfast to fuel your explorations and a seasonal pool to unwind at the end of the day.”
