Fantastic spot. Excellent staff and great style. Punches way above its weight
C
10.0 Wonderful
The aesthetic of the hotel was well curated and suited for the location. The custom wallpaper, furnishings, turntables, were all such nice details (we actually enjoyed the records quite a bit and added to the collection from an antique store down the street). The Native Son had good options for a quick bite, it spelled good things for the actual restaurant that wasn't open yet when we were there. We did check-in and check-out all through the app, but the front desk was friendly and accommodating, valet was nice as well. The downtown Merced scene isn't a hot spot yet, but there are good options for coffee and donuts, and the Mainzer (next door) had great beer options and food. Parking could have been a little clearer and a pool/hot tub would have made this a perfect weekend getaway. But if you're in Merced for any reason, El Capitan is definitely the best option.
