Absolutely beautiful boutique hotel. Lots of street noise, but that's out of their control. The clock has sleep sounds to help with that, and ear plugs are also provided. The beds are very comfortable so I still slept well. I enjoyed my stay.

Walking through the alley from self parking at night is not friendly. Fighting in the alley way through the night outside our window. The staff are very friendly. Eooms are very small.

Very slick hotel in the downtown Merced! A bit of luxury in an otherwise depressed town. Well maintained with very courteous staff. The patio and rainbird are great additions. The gym is nice! Highly recommended if you are in Merced.

Enjoyable stay in a very nice facility with a lovely patio and adjacent restaurants, despite loud music, traffic next to hotel delaying rest/sleep at night. Nearby trains run at all hours, but quickly got used to that.
