From bad to good

On check in,the receptionist was poor, bad attitude,told me the room I had reserved had not been cleaned (it was about 7pm).Room given on 2nd floor when it should’ve been 1st,later when I went to the front desk, a shift change occurred and she changed my room still 2nd floor though,but they both said that as I had two separate bookings I had to check out first then check in later the second day. In the morning before check out time I asked the receptionist the same question and said she could do the booking for me as I wanted to catch my tour bus to Yosemite and not leave my belongings in my car all day. HER NAME WAS GABRIELLE I THINK,excellent service and knew her job maybe not the other 2. A big thank to her.

Probably a good hotel but terrible service

We had traffic delays and didn’t make it to the hotel until 2:30am and they wouldn’t let us check in and cancelled our reservations, only refunded half of paid reservations. Terrible customer service, refusing to check us in, in the middle of the night?! Wild.

When we arrived we asked if we could heck in early, she said it would be $40. We waited to check in at 4. Got into the room and the room is not finished being remodeled. There is no baseboards on the wall with holes in the drywall. The bathroom GFCI won’t reset. The shower curtain was ripped. The bathroom exhaust fan didn’t work and the trim fell down. The motor looks like it’s just barely hanging in there. I thought it was a building ode for any bathroom to have a working exhaust fan because of mold. The soap dispensers in the shower were dirty. The transition from room to the vanity area is at different elevation and is a trip hazard. The bathroom vanity light flickers when it’s on. You can hear everything the neighboring rooms. No signs for ice machine. At night the walkway lights have some not working, it was dark and raining so not the best safe light. Room definitely didn’t look like the picture from Expedia. The mini fridge didn’t get cold. Not really a good place. I wouldn’t even say it was an average experience.

Inmates for a room with a fridge for my medicine and I went through 4 rooms before I got one.. they never went and checked them selfs kept sending me till the last one.. you need to go through the room and put fridges on them. Make sure the ones that they run out that say they come with the fridge and microwave the fridge of microwave actually especially if they’re gonna charge extra for the deluxe rooms. also, the rooms don’t even have phone so you can call the front desk…

The motel is close to the freeway and easy to find. The parking lot is spacious and convenient parking right in front of room. Eggs, potatoes, sausage and other choices available for breakfast in the lobby including coffee. Nice place to stay.

Stayed 2 nights, upon check in my reservation for my deluxe room was not available, got downgraded to standard room. Then I go to the room and the door would not unlock, I went to let the receptionist know and she came back with 3 different room keys to see which one opened. SMH. She said sometimes they don’t work. More SMH. Finally got our room let me tell you the restroom floor was dirty, and the room smelled musty. Woke up next day to bums on the hallway sleeping on the floor. This place needs some major attention when it comes to cleaningness and safety. We came because we have family in Merced, will I stay there again…NO THANK YOU.
