Straus Center - Frost Valley YMCA Hotels

"Amazing time ! Definitely will visit again !"

"Had I known we would have stayed at a ground floor room (parking lot right in front of it... fact not mentioned during the Expedia booking experience), I never would have booked this place. Stayed awake half the night.... the next door neighbours were loud past 11p.m. despite the hotel's policy.... would not consider revisiting this place. "

"Staff was great. My 3 star rating is only because there were no sign ups left when arriving for the 3PM check-in. Without this, for the sauna or infrared room; it leaves you to be "stealing time" where you can..(also feels a bit absurd for the rate you pay.) I had to scramble out of one solo sauna after first finding it empty, because a couple had booked it, and they told me they were also booked for the infrared (double dipping also leaves others without.) Feels unfair for another guest to contend with this. I used the "unscheduled" sauna by the pool, as suggested, which was pretty much always either in use, or had to be shared, ( in concept this is fine for me--but again, would have been nice if I had an opportunity to book my own time, to actually get that.) Food was fantastic. Kitchen has it going on. Although there was no coffee left after my sauna at 9:30AM, I asked & they very nicely got me a cup:) Pool is essential. There's also a hole in the floor of the cabin where the ac duct has to go out, but has an ill fit; I would suggest to property to consider customizing a small plug/screen/something around the duct there (so critters can't just climb in) and it would be a nice detail touch.. I will solve most of this next time by getting a bigger room & arriving earlier. I just worry that's part of the push (buy bigger, spend more.) Loved the meditation hut & apart from these details, had a very lovely time overall, thank you! "

"It’s okay "

"Clean room. "

"Perfect for us- so close to the mountain and kitchen was great "

"Nice breakfast. Custom madse for your needs"

"Staff was super sweet. But there should be some sort of service to take you to your room/bring you up to the main lodge for dinner. Maybe a front desk person with a golf cart. Pretty dangerous to walk down that path alone at night in the dark after some drinks at dinner. Otherwise, very chic and comfortable. "

"The view is wonderful, the hot tub is hot, the grounds are charming an peaceful, the house is spacious, we couldn't ask for more"
