Never saw staff it was self check in and check out. Everything was fine in the room. It is quite an old hotel so it had a few things that could be fixed. It was clean comfortable and that’s all I needed.

Room was great, loved the check-in and check-out method, I highly recommend this place and if I ever do return to Mariposa, I recommend this place as it is also walking distance to many commodities / the center of town. Thank you to the staff at River Rock Inn!

Fantastic check in procedure being able to turn up when we liked and see our room number on the chalk board. No need to worry about getting there for a certain check-in time. Ample parking on site included in the price. Lovely and clean, spacious accommodation with really comfortable beds. We all said just how comfortable the beds were. Highly recommended. Would definitely stop here again!

Our room was very clean and the bed extremely comfortable! The bathroom was also spacious which I appreciated. This property is located right in town and very walkable to restaurants and shopping. If visit Mariposa again, I would certainly stay at River Rock again.

Everything was fantastic, except for the shower water. It kept switching between cold and hot automatically, which made my shower at the end a contrast. Love the complimentary bath toiletries and clean sheets with quiet area.

Cute motel!

Such a cute little motel! My room was very clean and cosy. Great communication from the property owners. Cute cafe onsite although it wasn’t open during my stay. The town itself is adorable. Lots of great restaurants. I ate at the Bbq place next door which was incredible after a day hiking in Yosemite and I also ate at the farm to table diner. I’d definitely stay here again.

We weren’t sure on driving up, but liked the spacious room and quiet. Within easy walking distance of a BBQ place, tap house, and ice cream shop :) Had a very nice patio area to enjoy in the evening, and a coffee shop on site (but not open Sun/Mon). Would definitely stay here again!
