The hotel is very basic. The entrance is quite run down. Staff is friendly and helpful. The mattress was worn out. Lights were old and didn’t all work. We had everything that we needed, but it was not luxury.

All the staff was nice. Walkable to shopping, eating & parks. Good breakfast and they have a laundry room. Pool is big and well kept. If you need a hair dryer, just ask the front desk. Clean linen and comfy pillows. But definitely needs updated towels.

The neighbourhood is TERRIBLE. I thought the neighbourhood near the cathedral was the best and the most interesting in Latin America. Not so in Mérida. Just comparing to Oaxaca... Not the hotel s fault, obviously.... Otherwise, excellent service, friendly staff, very clean.

You get what you pay for. The hotel is old and it doesn’t seem like they care to invest in new sheets, new showers, etc. Aside from that the hotel was perfectly placed, just a few minutes walking from the centro. The staff was awesome as well. I would stay here again just for their service.

Habitacion limpieza promedio de los pisos, alberca en mantenimiento. Es seguro, personal muy amable, del desayuno bueno ellos te dan la porcion, bebidas durante el desayuno rellenables. Ubicación hay mucho trafico, en esa calle pasa el transporte Va y ven. Si llevas vehiculo, al entrar y salir del estacionamiento no te ayuda el personal de hotel por lo que hay que tener mucha precaución con el tráfico.

Vale la pena el lugar, cómodo y silencioso en medio del centro, solo pequeños detalles de limpieza que no afecta para nada tu experiencia y ellos me dieron solución muy rápido, lo recomiendo si tú plan es solo llegar a dormir y explorar el centro, cuenta con AA y ventilador.
