Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

We recently stayed in Unit 3 for 4 nights. Pros: unit was clean and establishment is within walking distance to eateries and shopping Cons: upkeep and maintenance inside the unit and on the property is lacking. No offer of clean linens or coffee supplies was made. Our emails requesting both were never answered. Price too high for these accommodations.

Nice quaint hotel near Yosemite. Very nice linens, towels, pillows and beds. Very quiet at night. Walking distance to a few good restaurants and in the same parking lot an excellent coffee shop. We enjoyed our stay. Older for sure, but really nice place to stay. Dog friendly too.

Clean and comfortable. Lots of restaurants nearby. An hour from south entrance to Yosemite. Older motel, but that is part of the small town feel. Unit 7 was very quiet. Rained most of he weekend, but we managed to walk around town.

Coffee/Deli shop was great and that is all that was Great. Rooms are clean, but very old. Dated furniture, old mattress. Bathroom very hokey, it reminded me of Guatemala. No room service provided, had to request clean towels. Staff informed they have only one key per room. Check in is done by taking your key off the board hanging outside the coffee shop with your name and room number written in chalk. Location is convenient for walking to numerous restaurants.

The River Rock Inn is GREAT. We got a room (#9) with two beds and it was huge and comfortable. The bathroom was also very nice. Others in our party said their bathrooms were smaller. We had a huge group, 17 people, some stayed at other properties nearby. But the River Rock Inn is located in the same block as the best two restaurants in town, Savoury's and Charles, and across the street from a mini mart with many other things you might need, like ice. There is plenty of parking off street in the River Rock lot. The small cafe on the property is really great, but closed Sunday and Monday. It's a locals hangout and since the River Rock has a huge outside terrace with 10+ tables, there is plenty of space for everyone to relax. The cafe serves coffee and great food, the Breakfast Sammie is excellent, and there is wine and cold beer too. We would go back to Mariposa, a super charming town with lots to do, it's on the way to Yosemite and the Mariposa Grove of Sequoias, too. We would stay at the River Rock again gladly!

We had 3 rooms, 2 of them turned outt o be 2 bedroom suites (and we could definitely have fitted the 5 of us in those 2) and we were really pleased with our stay. We never met the owners or saw anyone in the office but the keys were in our doors when we arrived and a clear list on the front door told us where to go. We had some evening drinks on the patio from the Stix deli on site which seemed a very popular spot for coffee in the morning - although we left on 2 out of 3 mornings before it opened at 7am to get into Yosemite before 6am as we had no reservations for the park. RiverRockInn is about an hour from at least two gates into Yosemite NP - it may be a bit longer of you weren't travelling at 5am as we were! We liked Mariposa as a small town too overall

We’ve been visiting family and friends in Mariposa for decades and consider ourselves right at home here. Since we always stayed in homes, we were delighted when the opportunity arose to stay at the RRI. We spent 8 days at this historic Inn while attending a family wedding. Our stay was most pleasant and the housekeeper attentive and helpful with our requests. Most important, the bed was super comfortable and very clean. Loved the quaint blackboard with our name and room assignment. Location perfect for walking anywhere downtown. Very quiet neighborhood. Other occupants friendly, & quiet. Breakfast every morning at Stix a definite plus. Thank you, Stephanie and Keith

Excellent experience, arrived earlier than expected and the housekeeper offered to look after our suitcases, she even put them in our room for us. Room very clean and tidy. Wifi a little on and off but due to the location, it is to be expected.

We arrived very late after after dealing with a shredded back tyre miles from anywhere to find our names on a blackboard pointing to our room & the key in the door. The location couldn't be better for visiting Yosemite & the town is cute & worth a visit. It was great to be able to park up & have a short walk to restaurants, etc. BUT if you can, avoid room 8. It's somewhat separate from the rest of the rooms & attached to the coffee shop fronting 7th Street (coffee shop is leased so not run by the Inn's owner) so at 06.15 we were woken by a strong smell of coffee being ground then at 07.00ish the smell of bacon started. Not too bad a problem perhaps, if a bit early on your holidays! The room was very dark as we had to keep the blinds closed for some privacy. There was a terrace/patio area immediately outside our room which I didn't realise wasn't private until we opened the door to find people eating breakfast & working on laptops right in front of us. This may not bother some people but it's important to know.
