This was a four-night solo trip to Mérida, and I couldn't have been happier with my accommodation choice. A well-appointed room with a firm mattress, a great shower with a high showerhead, and a second door to the suite providing direct access to the rooftop deck with its pools for cooling down in the afternoon. It includes an in-room refrigerator and safe as well. The restaurant in the hotel was great for when I wanted to stay in for breakfast or dinner and they also have a few agave spirit flights on the menu for those who like that sort of thing. The streets of Mérida were safe, safe, safe for walking and exploring day and night. The location of the hotel is about a twenty-minute walk from the Cathedral or potentially a forty-minute walk further afield up the Paseo de Montejo, but I found breaking up these longer walks with stops at bars and restaurants really make the area very accessible by foot. For a quicker outing, the street vendors setup by the Parque de la Ermita de Santa Isabel and the great cocktails (and dinners for that matter) at Bar de Barrio just down the street provide for a more \"in the neighborhood\" option. Back at the hotel, my airconditioning went out one night but was quickly reset by the staff while I ate my breakfast. Every member of the staff is truly lovely and really dedicated to making your trip to Mérida comfortable and memorable.
