The room was dated, with a rusty sink and an old room A/C unit tucked into the back of the closet in the rear of the room. It relied on a supplemental ceiling fan to help circulate the cooling into the living area. Noise deadening was poor. There was a lot of road noise from the nearby CA99. The complimentary breakfast was not set up by 7:00 a.m.

We had a room upstairs. Inside the room we had 3 beds. Which worked out for us because we had 4 people. We didn’t get to use the pool but it goes to 8 feet. There is a nice swing to sit on. We would reserve here again. It was quite also even being close to the freeway.

This was a nice, neat property and the room was clean and functional. It was on the ground floor though so it was very loud - mostly from folks walking around upstairs. I don't think the upstairs guests were trying to be loud, just the acoustics were very echo-ey. I'd suggest trying to check in as early as possible to secure an upstairs room.

Cleanliness: saw a roach and a fly in the room. My sister and her kids were getting bit by something in their room.

Staff & service: nice staff, happily accommodated me for late check in

Property conditions: some parts of the walls just looked run down and old

Area: kind of secluded, which can be a good thing but food places were a drive away. It’s a small city so not too bad

Room was decent, it can use more cleaning as there was dust all around. The pillow sheets had hair, one of them had a small dead bug. The carpet floor in the corner of the bed was dirty and there was a roach (it seemed like they had not bother to clean that area). Front desk staff were nice, once I mentioned about the pillow covers a lady came to change them. Overall, good size of room.

It served it'd purpose. Bed was comfortable, TV worked, and AC worked. New hotels need to build away from highways, always noisy. Maybe this helps keep prices under $200 a night, for 6-hours of use lol.

There are stains and 4 long hairs on the bed sheet. At night time, when the guests on the 2 floor walked, the noses could wake you up. This should be my last time staying in this place.

Room had a musty smell, they offer minimum breakfast and waffle mix was spoiled. Towels were dirty. AC took 1 day to cool room. They are pet friendly but have no where they can potty on the property as its all asphalt.

Good hotel

The room was clean. Bed was comfortable. Desk staff very friendly and helpful. There’s some noise from the highway- ear plugs took care of that. The breakfast was just cereal and packaged pastries, which gave us the perfect excuse to go out for breakfast. Highly recommend Toni’s Courtyard Cafe in Merced. Great eggs Benedict and biscuits and gravy.

Nice clean rooms. Excellent and polite staff including housekeeping. Breakfast was ok but i didnt expect anything since it was not included in my reservation. Location is near where i needed to go and all the hotels are next to each other. Room price was very reasonable may be because of slow season of the year. Oh i forgot to mention that i love their beds, so comfortable. Thank you for excellent stay and we will be staying again when we come next time to visit our child at UCM.

It looked beautiful from the outside. Check-in was great and staff friendly. Inside, not so much. There was a BIG crack in the middle of our bathroom floor. Big enough to trip or stub your toe on. The shower was just nasty. Aside from also having cracks, it wasn't even clean. We skipped showering.
