The gentleman at the desk was very kind and helpful. But the hotel itself is rundown. No and borded up. They have a contract with the county to house some homeless people.

On yours/their website looks nothing like the picturea posted. Also said breakfast was included, but there wasn't! Hotel said they haven't provided breakfast for a long time. When I told them it's on their website, said they weren't responsible for it. Also looks like it was housing for the homeless. Didn't feel safe at all.

First of all thanks for your stay with us, Secondly Actually we used to provide a hot breakfast, but after COVID, a lot of guests prefer to have a packed breakfast which is safer, that's why we are providing Egg muffins or Egg sandwiches in the morning with some sweets in each bag.

If you are looking for a clean comfortable place to stay this is it. I travel for work and have stayed here a number times and find it to better then some of the nicest hotel in the area. I feel safe and welcomed each time so stay at the Merced Inn and Suites. The safe are always nice and friendly at the desk. The housekeeper do a great job in the room and always make sure you have what you need. The water is always hot. Every room I have had here has been clean and comfortable. I can wait for my next booking.

Staff is excellent and friendly. Very attentive to patrons. Rooms are clean but could use some tender loving care. Carpet had a hole almost tripped. King size bed was uncomfortable very tough mattress. The blow dryers in the bathroom did not work and the bathroom wouldn’t shut closed. Some of the towels weren’t clean. Other than that it was a great stay this is actually the second time we stay there.

This hotel was very nice years ago but now, unfortunately, it needs a lot of upkeep. The carpets are stained, the bath tub is stained and the nozzle was loose, the tile is coming loose from the wall, the closet door was unhinged, the lamp was secured right in front of the mirror in the bedroom area, and the floor tile is stained - the list goes on. At 8:00 am there was no breakfast proved in the main area of the Inn as indicated. The staff was very nice but, needless to say, we will not be back.

I thought I could run away to Merced because I was born there but apparently it's cursed because it seems like everywhere I go in my hometown it's just corrupt and evil. However, I did have a profound experience however long I stayed in that room, and even though I didn't have much privacy, I feel like I found God in there 😀

This property is in a horrible area, and is extremely dirty, there were bugs both dead and alive in the room I was initially in and the room I was moved to when I complained. There was mold, grime, and dirt in every corner of every wall and under and behind the appliances. I booked for 4 nights, but couldn’t stomach sleeping in the building. The only positive was the staff. The complaint and cancellation process was a pain but overall they were understanding and ultimately did give a refund.

The Good: The young woman at the front desk was pleasant and the room, although extremely dated was clean and the bed was relatively comfortable. The Bad: As many others have mentioned the clientele around the property are extremely sketchy and there is definitely an unsafe feeling to the property although in fairness nothing actually happened during our one night stay. The biggest issue was the constant noise all night long from members of these residents. They spent most of the evening in the parking lot by our room window talking & singing most of the night. As a result, virtually no sleep happened during our one night stay. Unfortunately I would have to recommend choosing a different place to stay.
