This is an historic type hotel nothing modern so not a place if you’re have high expectations for warm water or toilets that flush well or an elevator that may or may not work
One of the only places that had a/c during a tropical storm. Lovely accommodating staff. And a back up generator in case the storm got worse. It was perfect because they have a restaurant inside and all every store were close for the hurricane so we were able to eat and at other hotels. We weren’t going to come here at first but our first hotel wasn’t going to have services or

Casa del Balam is a great little hotel with good shopping and dining near by. The staff is friendly and parking is included should you rent a car. The restaurant downstairs has live entertainment and good food. Walking distance from several plazas and museums.
Me gusto mucho la estadia, el costo del estacionamiento esta bien economico, el costo del desayuno lo encontre alto. Sobre las facilidades esta buenas, el cuarto es tal cual alarece en imagen tiene un buen tamaño, el baño es bastante viejo pero esta funcional. Si buscas economia y no lujos este es un plan. Recomendado!
Booked and prepaid 12 day stay. Could not arrive on the 3-6 windows, tried check in next day. Refused a room, refused a refund. Awful service. Very dated hotel.
This hotel is convenient to the centro historico, it is two blocks from the Gran Plaza and one block from Plaza Santa Lucia. It is an older hotel with a courtyard in the center, typical of what hotels were like in the past. Unique and clean with a restaurant downstairs. The hotel bathrooms need a little updating, but not remodeling the hotel to make it modern because it would lose its character.
Great stay!!! Loved this hotel, convenient and close to downtown Merida. Only problem, A/C unit in the 1st floor don’t work. First night say was pretty miserable considering the over 100F’s weather conditions. 2nd night, management moved us to 4th floor which work out perfectly.
we booked for 3 people and there were only 2 very old towels on the room, no hand towels, not tissues, one of the nights there were people on the lobby very noisy and the personnel didnt do anything ro keep the place quiet.
None of the VIP benefits offered was provided.

Location is ideal and main driver to stay there.
Property is clean and maintained within acceptable standards. Would recommend if it is for a short stay and if convenience is a factor you consider important.
