"Valley Inn review Relatively quiet stay the occasional train made quite a racket. The bathroom was clean, but the shower curtain was not long enough to keep water in the shower and the floor got soaked. There’s no bathmat. I had to use an extra towel which I had to request from housekeeping. There is an ashtray in the room. Not sure why if it’s a non-smoking room.

Top Merced Hotel Reviews

El Capitan Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Front desk and staff are always great! As a pet owner, I appreciate how pet friendly and extremely welcoming they are of pets. Unfortunately, the rooms always have a little scent of past pet visitors. "

TownePlace Suites by Marriott Merced

10/10 Excellent

"We had a Studio with 2 queen beds in the 1st floor for an overnight stay after spending a day in Yosemite. The room looked and smelled clean. It was well maintained. It was also quiet. The room amenities were also great and in good condition. The breakfast was your usual American style breakfast. They had breads, yogurts, cereals, fruits, oatmeal station, and waffle making station. We had to tell the breakfast attendant, Kim, that the sausage in the biscuits with gravy sandwich was still a bit frozen in the center. Kim apologized and thanked my Aunt for informing her. Overall, our stay was pleasant and that I can recommend the hotel."
