Stayed with my family. Simple tent without air condition. Hotel and
lodge in Yosemite need to reserve half year ago. So popular. Good
location, but many noisy kids. Mini rmarket, souvenir shop, big
restaurant, cafe, everything in nature. We can enjoy camping very
easily. Shared toilet and shower. Accessible shower was so small. Not
special tent for people with disability. They gave us non-step tent.
Many mosquito at night

Small door of bathroom, but bubble bath and pool. I like swimming. I
swam in a pool outside - 20 temperature at night. Freezing !
Nice bagel at breakfast. Shuttle bus to Vail.

Good location. 5 minutes by walk to baseball park. 10 minutes by walk
to Inner Harbor. I did not have a car. The cheapest hotel in downtown.
Stairs at entrance. no-step from restaurant. Impossible to use a
bathroom because of a small door. Very old hotel. Bad cost
performance.

Las Vegas hotel are very cheap because of casino. The

California. Not perfect. But they have.

North of downtown. Possible to walk from museum area. 10 minutes by
walk to subway station. Washington DC subway was well accessible
design. This hostel has a stairs from entrance to elevator. They has a
lift, but out of order. So I was carried up by staff and guests. If a
lift works, perfect.

Accommodation in National park cost all
high. Most famous historical hotel, but not good service and
accessibility. Atmosphere was great. Accessible room was not good.
Good location. center of National park. Some wild beast around
hotel.
