Ended up here by coincidence, due to a change in programme, and what a luck! Probably the most comfortable hotel I stayed in California (at this price tag), many services offered (including laundry), great breakfast and nice staff at the front desk.

This is the only thing that i was disatified with, I did''nt have the hotel address with me so I looked up the hotel's number to ask for the address i went into the internet to find the number of the hotel. called that number and they had me on hold and never answered . I called three times and the three times they had me on hold and never answered. It was like 10:00 p.m. and I was out on the streets by myself , not good! I found the hotel by God's guidance When I arrived at the hotel I did see that there was personal that could have helped me out to arrive faster. I think it would be more to your advantage to be more attentive on the phone . THANK YOU.

Merced area does not have the best hotels and crime rate is high, there is also a lot of homeless in the area of motel Drive. However, my stay at this Ramanda Inn hotel exceeded to expectations it was very nice, clean, quiet all amenities were new and up to date and the staff were very friendly and welcoming. It is right next to Dutch, Subway and also a good Mom & Pop restaurant for home style cooked foods, right next door to Dutch Bros walking distance

Merced is a small city, there are some beautiful places to visit, like Yoshimite Nationoal park, which is two hours from merced. However, you can visit Yosemite Lake, which is next to the University; it is beautiful.

Above expectations! Everything was above our expectations! Perfect location, and we had a really large room with a fully equipped kitchen – amazing! The hotel also has a laundry room available, which is perfect for travelers across the USA. Coffee and tea were available all day in the lobby – a great touch! Breakfast was very tasty and definitely above expectations. The pool had slightly colder water, but overall still nice. We would be happy to return!
