Guest Reviews
- Purl (10/5): - The woman at the check in desk was very kind.
- Christopher (10/5): Parfait -
- Cesar (10/5): -
- Terry (9/5): - Friendly staff, big room, comfy bed, good pillows. All king rooms upstairs
- Natacha (7/5): - Staff very friendly The noise of the traffic
Closed laundry after 9pm
- Armin (9/5): - Frühstück war in verhältniss zu anderen gut Man hörte die strasse aber nicht sehr schlimm
- Binzhou (10/5): The best motel for me with price below $100 -
- Belinda (2/5): - Clean and friendly night staff. Breakfast was good variety. The noise of the freeway was terribly loud and a constant disruption in sleep.
The morning staff watched a movie with screams at breakfast time. Not a nice way to start the day.
- brigitte (8/5): - Belle chambre, confortable, bon petit déjeuner, pas de moquette au sol Le bruit de l'autoroute ! La piscine inutilisable car un bruit épouvantable. L'hôtel aurait dû installer un mur anti bruit. Salle petit déjeuner trop petite
- Agurto (10/5): - For the price it was excellent. It has more to offer than more pricier hotels......the breakfast was exceptionally tasty 😋 and great variety of breakfast options
- Wojciech (7/5): -
- Carlo (7/5): Per un pernotto va bene - Stanza ampia e colazione abbondante Posizione di fronte alla Highway
- Juanita (10/5): -
- Jennifer (5/5): Staff is 10/10! unfortunately would only stay here if I have no better options due to Hardly any sleep - Staff is extremely friendly and helpful. Too close to the freeway, not enough insulation in the walls. Hard to sleep sounds like the freeway is on the side of your bed. I got the last room in the far corner, which has a bright security light directly outside the door with even closing the role, shade and the shutters. There was still so much light in my room.
- Victoria (3/5): Disappointed - Freezer worked good The beds are terribly uncomfortable, there was hair in the potatoes at breakfast, when I mentioned it to staff , she said- thats the unfortunate thing about eating buffet style. I mentioned to her maybe she could put out some fresh potatoes and she just walked away and didn't care if the other guest were eating the potatoes with hair in them, they don't sweep the floors everyday like they say they do, dirty rooms, it just wasn't worth the price and a disappointment, I've stayed there a few times before with friends and I thought going on my own this time would be better but this was the worst stay , I just can't go back, the beds are terrible! And honestly the breakfast is yucky 🤮 and disappointing the food is so cheap not appealing at all, also the lighting is terribly, all I can say is good luck to anyone who stays at this certain B.Wrtn

- Ms. Tia Faaumu-Voss (10/5): Outstanding - The front desk Rep was awesome. Love her i checked in around 1400 or 1500. I forgot her name. Crs was outstanding. Nothing. I even referred to my children where to stay when they come to Merced...
- Huyen (8/5): - The room was spacious, staff was super friendly Pool was dirty, not much breakfast items, walls are super thin, parking is tight and not enough spots. Ac kept waking me up, it would shut off and turn back on
- Tom (8/5): Good comfortable motel at the end of town with easy access to Yosemite - The room was comfortable and noise was not an issue The selection of TV stations was very poor - so much so that we gave up, Even the guide for the station content was off by an hour.
- Alonzo (8/5): Very good stay. I would return for another stay. - The foyer, room and dining area was very clean! That is big for me. A little noisy from the traffic on the highway. The parking was tight.
- Martin (10/5): -
- Diana (10/5): -
- Smith-Wallace (10/5): Easily the Nicest Hotel in Merced - The rooms are immaculate and really comfortable. The staff are friendly and always consistently available, regardless of the time. The breakfast 🥞🍳 is always hot with every kind of option imaginable. This is easily one of the nicest hotels in Merced and whenever I need a room in Merced I book here.

The second feont person was a lot nicer and eventually they switched us to a decent room. We had to check two upstairs rooms since they had termites. Eventually they put us on a bottom floor. Initially yhey tild us that there were no rooms on the bottom.

- Hicks III (10/5): I will recommend this spot - I manage a band and needed multiple rooms. I had to cancel one room on short notice and the staff on duty worked it out for me. She made checking in very smooth. I read comments and ratings before booking, regarding freeway noise and AC noise, but it didn't bother me at all.
- Facundo (10/5): Linda estancia - Todo Estar al lado de la sala de lavar ropas
- Pedro (5/5): -
- Kim (10/5): - Spotless Very accommodating, clean,friendly

- Alyssa (8/5): It was good for the price - Quite area Parking spaces were small
- adriana kimmet (10/5): -
- Blundell (5/5): Good motel although traffic noise an issue - The room was spacious and well presented. It was spotlessly clean. The staff were very friendly. The breakfast was very good. The noise from the Freeway and the train line is constant and very intrusive. Could do with additional blankets for comfort (and environmental considerations) rather than relying on use of electric heater.

The aircon was really loud

- Muhammad (10/5): A refreshing surprise after a long drive. - The breakfast and staff were wonderful. The room was clean and comfortable. The staff!

- Valentina (8/5): -
- Zohra (8/5): Pratique et propre pour une nuit de passage. - La proximité de la route car je devais reprendre la
Route le lendemain en famille Le bruit car c’était proche de l’autoroute
- Luguy (8/5): -
- simona (5/5): Sconsigliato - Solo la gentilezza dello staff La posizione era terribile, il rumore della strada è fortissimo tanto che ti impedisce di dormire

- Lori (6/5): - I usually stay at Best Western’s but this one lacked maintenance. Floor was uneven and laminates were coming up. Toilet rocked back and forth, needs repair. Coffee pot was so high on shelf, couldn’t get to it.
Several loud noises outside at night. I think it may have been the back of property.
- Augusto (7/5): Good -
- Miriam (10/5): Exceptional - Too close to the highway.
- john (2/5): - Sounds like you're right on the highway. Didn't get any sleep. A/c loud also.
- Alfonso (10/5): Exceptional -
- Jessica (10/5): Family stay - My room was spacious and clean. The staff was friendly and helpful.
- AmyN361 (6/5): Clean and comfy but noisy. - Across from major highway and railroad so take note of location if you’re a light sleeper or bring earplugs. Air conditioner was also very loud and enough to drowned out traffic and train noise. Room was clean and comfortable and breakfast was good. Front desk was super friendly and easy check in.
- Jaime (10/5): Exceptional -
- Michael (8/5): - Well received. Young lady working at the time was very polite friendly and helpful. I felt welcomed.
- Ravindra (5/5): Passable -
- Katherine (8/5): - Good location. The room is clean and neat. Our room is a corner room and it was spacious. Friendly staff and good breakfast.
- gatecrasher (8/5): Nice hotel for a stop along the way - The room was comfortable, and the shower was HOT. There is a complimentary breakfast which offered a nice selection of both hot and cold food.
The only 'negative' is the freeway noise. I am a light sleeper, so if I woke up, even in middle of the night you can hear those truckers.
- Kimberly (10/5): Exceptional -
- Jennifer (9/5): The staff were friendly. It was a clean and pleasant place to stay. - It was easy to find. It had a nice complementary breakfast. The parking was cramped. The mattress for my bed was sagging.
- lee-ling (4/5): - Sewage smell in bathroom of the handicapped room. Need to close the bathroom door to not smell it.
- Carrie (5/5): Lots of traffic noise! - Front desk staff was very nice. Bed was comfortable with fresh linens. Extremely noisy. Located facing the busy freeway so all rooms had noise exposure. Room smelled of cigarette smoke.
- Mario (8/5): - The personnel at the reception was pleasant and helpful
- Ronald (10/5): - Quiet during my visit. Only concern was when I arrived for checkin I had to wait, because there was no one at the desk.
- Eva (6/5): It was okay overall. - Location was great. Breakfast was good. Water flow was very low. Not enough electric outlet.
- Muhammad (10/5): Exceptional -
- Dorothy (10/5): - I love that Best Western serves breakfast. A full breakfast, not just juice and toast. There is always protein, usually eggs and sausage, plus all the standard breakfast options (pancakes, cereal, yogurt, fruit). There is comfy space in which to eat. A real bonus! Saves having to spend time finding a place, getting there and paying for it. Thanks Best Western!
