Pros:
1. Spacious rooms
2. Reasonably comfortable bed.
Cons:
1. Bad smell in room.
2. Stain on pillow case that went through to the pillow -- looked like blood!!! Attendant didn't seem to care, said housekeeping had already gone home. Didn't offer anything until I asked, "Can I get a new pillow?" Then she said I could come to the office and get one myself out of the supply closet.
3. Worn and scuffed furniture, door trims, closet doors, etc.
4. There is what looks like mold on the bathroom door frame.
5. Scum on shower walls.
6. First bath towel soiled. Second bath towel either soiled or stained.
7. Stains on bathroom/vanity floor tiles, and discolored (dirty?) grout.
8. Missing parts of transition piece for tile to carpet.
9. Very s-l-o-w internet connection.
10. Key didn't work the second day. Went to the office where a friendly staff person rekeyed.
11. Breakfast was in a cramped little room, maybe a converted closet??? Not very good quality, but there were some choices. Definitely not as good as the breakfasts in other nearby hotels in Merced.
I will never stay at this place again. I'm not a "hotel snob." I just like a clean, safe place. This one was severely lacking. There is no way they should have a star rating any higher than 1-star, in my opinion. Definitely not in the same class as other nearby hotels, like Holiday Inn Express (nice), Hampton Inn (nice), and Courtyard by Marriott (reasonably nice), all of which I've stayed at multiple times.
