PositiveAfter a 3-day guest stay at Merrill Gardens in Greenville SC, we were impressed with the apartments, common areas and amenities. The facility is nearly new and shows a lot of thought and care in its design and materials. The guest suite was bright and airy, with a full kitchen, washer-dryer, handicap accessible bathroom and attractive finishes. Amenities include a theatre, activity room, fitness room, salon, heated outdoor pool, firepit, small garden and library. It is within walking distance to downtown Greenville…
