Pros:

Good breakfast with vegan milk, helpful staff, overall clean room

After a long day on the road this Best Western in Merced, CA was a good place to take a break for the night.
Pros:

This facility was a good place to get off the road for the night. Have a nice shower and a good night sleep in order to continue your journey in good shape. They did serve a nice breakfast from 6 to 9 am.

Cons:

There was nothing not to like. It served its purpose well.

Lekkere tussenstop onderweg naar Yosemite
Pros:

Goede kamer incl Wifi, mooie plek om al goed richting Yosemite NP te rijden, zodat je daar het maximale uit de dagen kan halen.
Lekker zwembad ook!

Cons:

Ligt een beetje aan de rand van de stad, vlak langs de snelweg. Heb je verder geen last van en geen lawaai van in de kamer.

Pros:

Bardzo czyste pokoje, zadbane, widać dbałość i zaangażowanie personelu w sprzątanie. Czynny basen.

Cons:

Lokalizacja-przy ruchliwej autostradzie i linii kolejowej. Motel wypełniony po brzegi pracownikami firm budowlanych , w związku z tym wieczorem całkowity brak miejsc do parkowania. Pani obsługująca recepcję bardzo słabo mówiła po angielsku trudno się było skomunikować. Brak ręczników na basenie , trzeba po nie chodzić do recepcji.

Pros:

La piscine était un vrai plus !

Cons:

Le matelas était très mou et nous nous enfoncions au centre du lit.
L’hôtel donne sur une route très passante et donc très bruyante.

Würde ich nicht nochmal buchen
Pros:

Das Zimmer war geräumig und sauber.

Cons:

Alles andere. Das Hotel liegt unmittelbar am Highway und neben einer Bahnstrecke. Es klingt, als würden die Autos und Züge direkt durchs Zimmer fahren. Lauter als das war nur die Klimaanlage, die außerdem extrem schimmelig und modrig gerochen hat, aber leider bei 40 Grad Außentemperatur unabdingbar war.
Das Bett war ziemlich klein für zwei Personen und extrem unkomfortabel. Uns war es jedenfalls zu weich, sodass wir beide morgens Rückenschmerzen hatten.
Das Frühstück war gut gemeint und die Auswahl war groß, es hat leider aber alles nicht geschmeckt… Der Waffelteig hat säuerlich geschmeckt, da waren wir uns sehr unsicher, ob dieser noch gut war…
