Hotels near Merrill Garden

"Stayed here recently and had a decent overall experience. The hotel was clean, which is always a top priority for me, and the staff were friendly and accommodating throughout my stay. Check-in was smooth, and the common areas were generally well-kept. That said, the property is clearly showing its age. The rooms and facilities could really use some updates; things like worn furniture, dated decor, and minor maintenance issues (loose fixtures, weak water pressure, older appliances) stood out. Nothing was deal-breaking, but enough to notice and take away from the overall comfort. Breakfast was also pretty lackluster—limited options and not much in terms of quality, which was a bit disappointing and didn’t add much value to the stay. With some renovations and attention to repairs, this place could easily be a much stronger option. For now: decent location, clean and serviceable, but not quite up to modern expectations…while charging modern prices. "

"Breakfast was good-they had a mini waffle maker! I have never seen one of those in a hotel before! We made waffles everyday! The pool was nice-small but that was good for us. The staff were awesome-very helpful and friendly and patient with my grandma! "
