I really love the hotel, so cute and the location is perfect. The only issue is no chairs on the balcony or in the room. Everything else was amazing. I will book again if I come back to Merida.

4/5 - Good

Verified traveler

Beautiful old city, but downtown awfully crowded and noisy. Hotel is in a very good location, has a lot of character. Taxis easy to get nearby. Unfortunately, everything was closed down just before we got there, so we couldn't go to many places.
