Lisa, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Large “old style” motel but well maintained. Reception area nicely updated with friendly and helpful staff. The hidden gem is the pub - small cozy atmosphere, good drinks & surprising delicious food. Wish our stay could of been longer to enjoy the pool and other amenities.

Great place, built 1952. Been well cared for. Nostalgia. Clean and fresh.Everything you need. Pool, pub. Food. Wish we had stayed longer. Highly recommend.
Michael, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

While the property is older, the room had all the modern features as a new hotel,(coffee maker,microwave, fridge, hair dryer etc.) The room was spotless! Beds were comfortable and the location of the room was quiet. The check in was quick and efficient, the clerk lovely and friendly. We did not partake of the breakfast, as we left to early to enjoy it. All in all a perfectly pleasant and budget friendly experience.
Regina, 1-night trip

Needed rest

We had a long drive, tired and ready for rest

The Pub at Merry Acres

We had a wonderful time. The Pub and especially Joel the amazing mixologist made the best esspresso martinis ever. He was so friendly and made our trip extra special.
Tena, 1-night trip

4/10 Poor

The staff were wonderful, but this place is just overall run down. It really didn't look anything like the pictures, far more dated, bathtub "gross" to me (I have high cleanliness standards), there was a dead bug on my bed the first night, the bed was soft (I need firm), and the area it is in didn't feel safe to me - there were police sirens and officials on megaphones daily. I also booked through Expedia but got a bill at the front desk when I checked out that didn't match - I have emailed to ask about that but have not heard back from anyone, it has been about a week. I am definitely not thrilled with the amount I paid for this property and don't agree at all that it deserves any sort of 8/10 rating.. I really hate saying this, though, because the staff were super friendly and wonderful - it is not their fault the hotel is "run down" or that it is located where it is - they did, though, put me in the back of the property, which I super appreciated, to be back away from the main street (which didn't feel safe to me).
Jamie, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

They were extremely accommodating and pleasant. The room was inexpensive and clean and comfortable.
Ivor, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

I stay at merry acres weekly. Cute place, safe, and quiet.
ERNEST, 3-night trip

10/10 Excellent

The property has age on it but clean and safe for the two nights stayed. Room doors are banged up and could use painting. The breakfast offered could have used creamer for coffee. More pastries should be offered for breakfast to compete with area motels. Only one bar of soap in the room for shower and hand washing could certainly use two.
