A little pricey, but the room was great with a kitchenette and stocked with dishes, utensils, coffee. Market for provisions about 12 miles up the road. For the price, slightly above average value.

Layout and amenities of Red Bud Inn were perfect for us in our journey to Yosemite NP. The staff were very accommodating. The room, bathroom, kitchen were ideally clean and well appointed. I was much better than we expected for our needs. The only draw back is the noise on the highway, which we contributed to with our driving. We may stay here again in the future, if we return to the area.

Great spot near a bridge where 2 rivers come together. Walk across the street to have coffee on the river. Unfortunately the nights we stayed construction on the bridge started after 9pm. Otherwise lovely spot and place.

Nice two bed room located right off the main road. Perfect location just a short drive from the Arch entrance to Yosemite National Park. Red Bud has access to the amenities of Cedar Lodge (check in location) just down the road. Would stay here again and I recommend as a budget hotel.
