"However, another 'best feature' of our visit was the free airport pick up after midnight and the 'quite a few' additional free shuttles all over town and a return to the airport later."

“Merrill Field Inn emphasizes practical comfort with a staff noted for attentiveness and helpful service. Though plainly furnished, the location provides walkable access to dining options and convenient airport shuttles. I found the proximity to Merrill Field airport both a blessing and a curse, offering unique views alongside noticeable noise.”
