Liked: Staff & service
Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
For the price I paid it was sufficient, breakfast was great, room was clean, bed was comfy, water was hot. Drawbacks: broken window blinds/no curtains- I could see people walking by when I was on the ground floor and I’m sure they could see me (especially when I’m sleeping). I guess you need to book a deluxe room to get a mini fridge and microwave, but even for basic I was expecting a coffee maker and an end table? I had to pull over the chair to the bed to set my things on. There was a desk, but it looked like the edges had been chewed on. The floor had stains, and I’m worried what I would find if I took the sheets off of the bed (the spring set and stand were all chewed up as well). If you’re look for something for under $100, this is it.

Great hotel for the location, OK rooms with nice beds, cable, TV and Wi-Fi, very friendly staff. Front desk staff was quick and efficient with a check-in. Denny's and McDonald's right next-door. And within walking distance of a lot more restaurants and entertainment.

Days inn Merced,

I understand that the area was not the best in town and the hotel is working with what thay have. Rooms smaller then they appear on wesite. ADA we had a pinch point between the bed and the dresser. Bathroom door although wide and needed for ADA customers. Had a wheelchair been in there the pich point in the room would be an issue. exposed piping in bathroom a bit unsightly. during the stay. I walked our dog at 11:30 pm and their was a homeless man slepping in one of the parking stalls with his head on the concrete tire stop ( Merced PD did ahow up and asked him to leave. desk said there was sercurity on site. I never saw them. Overall the room was clean and tidy. Staff and lobby was very receptive. breakfast was very good. property would benifit from a small containment fence or walls with proper signage. room to value was good . keep improving the property for customer and Staff safety. Once again the Staff was attentive and concerned and did not contribute to issues noted.
