Adding this review because this experience was extremely concerning and I don't feel like it's been…read moreresolved. I would like to know this if I were thinking of staying here. We stayed here in June and experienced harassing and intimidating behavior by staff. Management response was limited. I am listing the more egregious issues here. We had connecting rooms and no door stoppers, the rooms did not have key access to one another so when the door closed unexpectedly, we got locked out. It was early morning so the door latch was still on from night before. I was in the connecting room with my kids when the Maintenance man opened the door. He notified us by swinging the connecting room doors open twice without knocking. I was surprised because we hadn't gotten an ETA for resolution but super grateful and in a rush. I said thank you, thinking thatd be it. Turns out it wasn't. The maintenance man had to be pushed out of my door way because he had been told by the "manager" Priscilla that I was "pressuring them" when I called to ask for a time estimate for the service so I could get my kids morning medicine & other belongings or make other plans. The maintenance man stood in front of my door, looking at me intensely, and said "it's her ? She's the one pressuring us? We don't have to do this (unlock the door).." I said thank you several times before realizing what was happening then told him I didn't pay to argue as I was pushing the door he was blocking to get him out my room. Priscilla was in the hallway and asked if I had gotten corporates number then Scoffed when I said no. He didn't budge until I put my phone up. I wasn't sure if I was going to record or call 911. I notified management and corporate by email, informing them every detail and that there was also a sink not working since our arrival the previous night but I was uncomfortable getting it fixed without coordinating w management first. I was so uncomfortable, I didn't want anyone in my room, I was uncomfortable that they had access to my room (and personal information). Despite my request to coordinate the fix, They sent housekeeping without notice. While housekeeping was in the room, I also received a call from Priscilla who informed me not to email mgmt but only ask for support at the desk. I told her I didn't feel comfortable, and she proceeded to argue that she had been "realllyyy nice to me" then hang up abruptly after I told her this conversation was inappropriate. We didn't get a response from management until we had decided to check out a day early later that evening. And it confirmed our decision to do so. There was no reassurance that we'd be left alone, but an offer to a free dinner at the restaurant in the same lobby as where Priscilla worked. It was incredibly insulting and there was no way I trusted a meal from this place. Upon checkout we also found that communication to the later staff had been that we had refused service, implying we were being difficult, not that the staff was being inappropriate and unprofessional. Marriott is a hospitality company but this experience was so below the bar I am still shocked and uncomfortable. I wasn't looking to be wowed, just not end up entirely disturbed. They could have just *not*, but it seemed that they went out of this way to create this experience. While we received a refund and a case closure email citing the free meal, the experience was still not okay and I don't think it's been or will be resolved at this point. I'm still shaken weeks later. Can't imagine what could have happened if I were alone in this case, shorter or more timid. I wouldn't wish this experience on anyone.

Unexpectedly, Maria was the first person to make us feel welcomed in Merced. She always greets us with a warm smile and makes sure that we have everything we need. Whenever we plan a trip to Merced, my wife says "book us a room at Maria's place". We look forward to staying with Maria two more years. We just might have to invite her to our Son's graduation. I think air fresheners are needed throughout the facility. It smells a bit dingy and dated in rooms and common areas. The facility appears clean, but the smell suggests it's not.

It's a relaxing and leisurely place, and Jackie is an experienced host. There are rooms in the main house, a custom-built home on a large lot. There is also a private cottage in the garden. We called from the road, late, and Jackie graciously reserved a room in the main house (the cottage was not available, sadly) for our arrival. It was still early enough to have dinner, and Jackie's suggestions were the best. We woke up to a fine breakfast with eggs from Jackie's flock (not 5 or 6 hens, but dozens) and we walked the gardens and the chicken coop after breakfast. Best to stay a couple of days, or more, but you won't be disappointed by a brief overnight with breakfast.

The rooms are newly remodeled with wood/laminate flooring, wood shutters and tile in the bathroom. Our small room was very clean and the bed, a pillow top mattress, was very comfortable. The bathroom sink is located outside of the bathroom in a nook and the bathroom itself was very clean! However, the bath towels were on the thin side and a tad small. The included breakfast (served from 6AM - 9AM) had very little to choose from, but I suppose that is to be expected for the price paid. There was cereal, danishes, donuts, etc. Do note, this location is next to the highway. The noise was not an issue for me, but it might be for light sleepers. Thank you, America's Best Inn & Suites! We will recommend and stay again.

The front desk was extremely short staffed with one person trying to check-in four parties, and the check in process took a long time, mainly spent waiting in line. Our room was not cleaned yet, so we went to an early dinner. When we came back after a leisurely meal, the room was ready but lacked a refrigerator, requiring us to move to a new room next door. My sister pulled the bedspread back, sat down, and immediately started itching. There were short black hairs all over the bottom sheet; my sister has long, blonde hair. We notified the front office, and they immediately sent housekeeping out to change the sheets. It took several hours for the room to cool down, even with the air conditioner cranked up as high as possible. The barn bathroom door did not close all the way, which was unfortunate as we had three people sharing the room. (We're sisters, but come on... some things are private.) Additionally this second room had no towels, and the bathtub was absolutely filthy with black marks all over the bottom sheet. There was no fire alarm in the room. I requested a call from the hotel manager as he/she was not available when we checked out. A woman called me later, saying she was a manager. She told me that our $120 stay would be refunded; (Unfortunately, I did not write down her name.) I also received an email from Kay Dhaliwal (Manager) which did not mention any refund but acknowledged my concerns and thanked me for my feedback. Days Inn did indeed refund me $120, but then charged me $120 TWICE on my card. Since I have nothing in writing documenting the promised refund from the property, I have no further recourse other than to leave reviews. I sent an email back to Ms. Dhaliwal requesting a follow up on the promised refund, but have not received any response. DO NOT RECOMMEND! DIRTY! Poor management and housekeeping!

We were towing a trailer and given permission to park along several spaces since they had many rooms empty for the night. Our room was quite clean. Nothing to report out of line. The worst of it was the air filter for the air conditioner smelled of cigarette smoke. Thankfully, we had a can of air freshener and just hosed it. Overall, the place wasn't bad. The people in the neighboring room left me wondering if they were trying to sell drugs out of the parking lot. Every time we stepped out, there was anywhere from one to three people at the back of their vehicle. Traffic noise wasn't bad. Actually, there was little to no freeway noise and it was far enough from the city Street that you didn't really hear much go by. Would I stay here again? Probably.
