warm hospitality but room could use updates

The front desk staff made check-in smooth with a friendly attitude that set a positive tone for our stay. Maria, in the breakfast area, prepared special meals for our children, showing true kindness and care that we deeply appreciated. The pool view offered a refreshing vibe to unwind during our downtime.

The room felt slightly dated and could benefit from some renovations.

Definitely my go-to spot

I had a bit of a hiccup checking in, but, a girl named Sarah at the front desk really stood out. She went above and beyond, explaining their rewards program and even signed me up. Good service and a welcomed surprise.

Would recommend for a short break

Clean room, friendly staff, and the outdoor swimming pool was a refreshing way to unwind after exploring the area.

Absolutely nothing to criticize.

Upon arriving, we were welcomed by a friendly front desk staff that made check-in smooth and easy. The queen suite was spacious, exceptionally clean, and thoughtfully equipped with a mini fridge and microwave. Breakfast offered a delicious variety, including homemade Belgian waffles that the kids loved. The only downside was the limited attractions in the immediate area, but we easily explored nearby destinations like Mariposa and Yosemite.

The rooms are super spacious with comfy beds. Loved the mini fridge and microwave for snacks. The location is perfect for a quick trip to Yosemite, and the pool was a nice touch for unwinding after a long drive.

We had a fantastic stay with our teen kids! The pool was a hit, providing a refreshing break after exploring nearby attractions like Castle Air Museum. The hotel staff was super friendly and made our mornings delightful with a hearty breakfast, which we all enjoyed together!

My kids wished for more variety in the breakfast options for picky eaters.

exceptional service from maria at breakfast makes your stay feel like home

Clean, comfy, friendly staff!

I really loved my stay! The breakfast had delicious options and a pancake machine. The room was spotless and cozy, and I appreciated the Dove products in the bathroom.

Just a fitting option for a weekend getaway in Merced with excellent value for money. The free breakfast had typical hot and cold items, which were okay.

During my stay, I found the hotel to be clean and well-kept, with welcoming common areas that made it easy for us seniors to navigate comfortably. The staff were exceptionally kind and attentive, truly enhancing our experience.

A quieter heating unit would be appreciated.

Maria in the dining area was a total gem, serving up smiles along with the fresh European bread that took me straight to foodie heaven. The room was clean and cozy too—shoutout to the comfy beds! Can't forget the maintenance dude who went all out to help fix up our bike rack, too!

Now, not everything was peachy. My buddies had a little hiccup checking in with a clerk who needed a chill pill—rude vibes! Also, missing soap had us scrambling after a long day, which was a bit of a bummer.

Exceeded My Expectations!

I enjoyed my stay, especially the complimentary breakfast which had a great variety. The staff were incredibly helpful, making sure I got the last check-out advantage as a member. Do try the local dining options – they were amazing! Pro tip, ask for room preference during busy times.

Exceptional service and clean rooms

I recently stayed for one night and was truly impressed by the exceptional service from the staff, especially Maria at breakfast who always greeted us with a warm smile and kept everything stocked beautifully. The room was spotless and had convenient amenities like a mini-fridge and microwave. The quiet atmosphere made for a peaceful night's sleep, but the check-in experience could be improved as there was a bit of a wait.

The Holiday Inn Express provided a comfortable and clean environment for my stay. The staff, especially the front desk attendant and Maria in the breakfast area, were exceptionally welcoming and attentive. They truly made an effort to ensure a pleasant experience for all guests, going above and beyond in their hospitality.
