I have stayed at Yosemite Lodge (at the Falls) and it was fine. It is more like a motel. Best thing about staying there is you have access to the shuttle bus that takes you to many places in the park. You can see Yosemite Falls, is across the parking lot from a park restaurant and ranger talk area. I would not hesitate to stay there again. If your visit is short, the valley floor in the park is the best place to stay.
