We stayed a couple of days in Main Street King room. Hotel was great. For this stay we took Amtrak which is a 15 minute walk to hotel. Front desk staff was very welcoming. Overall we enjoyed everything and will be back for our daughter's graduation from UC Merced soon.

This was my second three night stay at the El Capitan. It is an excellent hotel with an excellent restaurant & staff. There is not much to do in Merced. Nonetheless, this hotel has become a favored place to go to read, write, & enjoy a nice stay.

I chose El Capitan because my dog was free. Everything went smoothly. The room was great, no one said anything about my dog (except "Can I pet him?"), in and out was a breeze, and I found parking across the street. Good location too. However, I don't know why they had to put me down two hallways on Floor 4. During my stay, the elevator never opened on either Floor 2 or 3, indicating an absence of inhabitants on those floors. Also, I only saw two other customers on Floor 4. I could not quite close the blackout curtains after a number of tries, so they let in some light in the early morning.
