The room was amazing. This is the type of room you want to have in your house as a bedroom. One of the best experiences I have ever had.

The property is beautiful and well designed. The room was very clean and the staff was very friendly and helpful. The fireplace was wonderful. They had snacks and beverages available 24/7. It’s right in the heart of downtown Salem and within walking distance to great restaurants, museums, and local landmarks. I had an excellent experience staying at The Merchant and hope to stay there again.
