This is not a bad little apartment, but at (the rate we were charged per night) it is WAY too expensive for what it offers. The number that is listed as the “average” rate would be better, but still pricey. The photos, which were likely taken some years ago, make it seem bigger than it is. This is a TINY apartment, underneath a larger house that needs new paint etc. The walls are thin, so you hear everything going on upstairs. The TV upstairs is apparently located directly above the bed downstairs, making it hard to sleep if upstairs is occupied. We woke up when our neighbors got up at 5 am - it was loud like they were in our kitchen. Speaking of the kitchen, it was not well-equipped when we arrived: only a couple pots/pans, no lids, main pan was a scratched up Teflon pan that no one should use (Teflon is highly toxic if you get it in your food). The other small pan was dirty, I had to scrub it before using. There were just a few cups, bowls, and plates, none of them matching. If you stay here, you likely will not hang out, you’ll just sleep here and eat breakfast. Parking is very limited. We addressed all of these issues with the owner, and she refused to refund to an amount which would be more appropriate for the offering. On the positive side, the apartment was clean and warm and had hot water, and it is in a nice neighborhood close to Yosemite Valley. In summary, it is a fine place for sleeping between Yosemite adventures - at the right price. At the rate we were charged, it feels like price gouging, especially off-season.
