Americas Best Value Inn & Suites Royal Carriage - Jamestown, California

No frills budget hotel with a clean room and friendly staff. The key here is price, I paid 66 bucks on Priceline out the door and anything more is overpriced. It’s absolutely fine, the hotel cats are nice. The coffee machine in room takes forever and sounds like a jet engine.

Stayed here over the weekend. Booked a cottage. Was pleasantly surprised at the size. Was not expecting a full kitchen. The location was great, right on Main Street Jamestown. Water pressure was great, amenities in the room were great. Clean. TV was large. Bathtub was large. Decent coffee pot. Full sized fridge. Nice lotions and soaps in the bathroom.
The cons though- $140 for the night but no continental breakfast. That was an extra $15. The furniture was very flimsy Ikea-ish. The futon couch in the room was not comfortable to even sit in, broken down in the middle with a huge dip in it. The mattress was not very thick. But comfortable enough. The bedding was good though. We didn't have enough cream and sugar for the coffee. Only 1 pack each.
The only things I really didn't like, the parking in the back of the building is really tight. Not easy to turn around. Lots and lots of wires and cables running all over the property hooked up to security cameras. We open up our front door and there's a camera pointed right to our door. Also- no black out curtains. When that sun hit the blinds- it woke us up when we wanted to sleep in. The property also had a feel of being low budget due to all the construction items/ garbage laying around. And there's broken down vehicles parked in the back where guests could be parking. You need to park on the narrow main street or across the street in public parking which is gravel.
All in all- not bad. Just wished for a little cleaner property with no homeless looking people around.
Ps. Pizza Plus next door is amazing for dinner and all the shops on Main Street are easy to walk to.

Really nice people working there, was a good price for what you get if you’re traveling to Yosemite. We were camping in 100 degree heat and decided to pack it up and come here and was a great choice!

Stayed there during my visit to Yosemite. The owners were really friendly and it was a nice experience.

I love this place!!My only complaints are the carpet in my room was very old and filthy!! disgusting and two square tiles on the bathroom floor had long, sharp cracks in them. Otherwise, I love everything else about this Hotel... Quirky, feels authentic! Lots of character and price was reasonable and they are friendly. also they provide a very nice complementary breakfast, nicely done!!I stayed in the main building right off of the front upstairs balcony. I also love the location!

Some staff are polite and helpful as possible. A lot of traffic in the late night. People shouting up and down hallway and slamming doors disrupting other hotel guess. Upstairs rooms are not very comfortable with all the noise. Cottages are better to stay in. More private and quite. Still a lot of traffic in hotel. Continental breakfast was old fruit was molded. I would not recommend this hotel. Will never stay here again.

After reading some of the other reviews, I felt that I needed to describe our experience. We spent three nights at the hotel. We had a very nice, but small, room on the second floor. The furniture was antique and added much atmosphere. The bed was very comfortable and we were pleased to find it covered not with a bedspread but with a clean (and launderable) duvet similar to what we found when we traveled in Scandinavia.

Unlike a previous reviewer, we had our own bathroom which was small but clean. The porch swing on the back porch and the chairs on the balcony overlooking a very quiet main street provided memorable spots to sit and sip a glass of wine in the evening.

The staff was very nice and very helpful, and it sounds as if the staff described in other reviews must have been replaced.

The hotel is old and therefore a bit rough around the edges, but we felt that we had a very good experience here, and we would not hesitate to stay here again if we are in the area.

Outwardly, the hotel looked fair at the very least, in a very nice part of town. Awesome feel, close to stuff, looks like one could have a decent night life while staying? That's where the good stops. I never got to check in, I arrived a quarter after 7, tried to check in and no answer of the door. I hit the night box must have been a dozen times. Still no answer. Called location, and line rang busy after several attempts. Finally left and stayed elsewhere. Will not in good conscience recommend this place.
