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.
