Top Merced Hotel Reviews

Courtyard by Marriott Merced

8/10 Good

"If I pay full price for two different days the rules from the hotel needs to be provided the full service for each day, clean and change the towels for each day. I pay for two different nights with service for only one night."

Serenity, a tranquil 4-bed, 3-bath home minutes away from UC Merced.

10/10 Excellent

"We were in town for the funeral of our daughter, so we reserved this place for us and several of our adult children. It was quiet, clean, had a restful atmosphere and was equipped with the things we needed. Amanda was attentive to our needs. It was one of the best experiences we have had at a VRBO."
