La ubicación y el personal son un 10 y el edificio tuvo que ser maravilloso en el pasado. En la actualidad, es triste ver lo descuidado que está el edificio, aunque tiene mucho encanto ver cómo lo han convertido en una pequeña galería de arte.

Très bien
Un hôtel familial, où le staff est dans l'ensemble sympa, le petit-déjeuner bon (c'est la même chose tous les jours par contre), et surtout l'emplacement est parfait.
J'ai pris une chambre solo, pas très grande mais fonctionnelle, le lit est confortable.
Point à améliorer : je suis pas fan du système qui consiste à laisser le prix d'une nuit comme "caution", je vois pas trop l'utilité. A part ça c'était très bien !

Fantástico.
El mejor hostal en el que he estado de momento en Yucatán. Pude descansar y divertirme, la cama era comodísima, los baños estaban limpísimos y no eran mixtos, siempre había alguien limpiando las salas comunes, me sentí como en casa. El desayuno era variado todos los días, te daban a elegir y estaba riquísimo. En ningún momento me faltó de nada y está en frente de la plaza principal de Mérida, a 10 minutos andando del autobús. Mil gracias por todo! Volveré

The place looks cool but it's actually pretty bad.
The window in my room had no curtain so light would come in night and early morning -- and the manager refused to help. Loud music throughout the day. No hot water. The bed was hard as rock and chair in the room was disgusting with stains. I placed a towel on it so I could sit on it.
The location was great!

Amazing Location, very helpful.
Ck in with young lady took a long time, and we had 3 rooms, and she put us all in one BIG room, which was ok for only one night. Hunter and Luis went the extra mile when we had to leave VERY early and fed us breakfast.
Location is amazing.

Mi reservación no aparecía
Tardaron en Entregar la habitación
No había jabón, no había toallas
El baño no tenía cortina que dividiera la regadera, todo se moja y el piso estaba resbaloso, ni una jerga para secar.
La gente hacia mucho ruido
