"Booked this on a last minute extension at Sequoia national park. I was originally staying at Visalia Marriott as my homebase but was pleasantly surprised at how much cleaner and comfortable Sequoia Village turned out to be in comparison. 15 min to Sequoia park entrance also helped a lot. The floors are a little squeaky (apologies to my neighbor below) but other than that I thoroughly enjoyed my stay"
