Toplocatie midden in historisch centrum

Toplocatie, midden in historisch centrum in een historisch gebouw. Prima bewaakte parkeergelegenheid naast het hotel

Eigenlijk niets.

Avoid the SPA. Doubled outside prices and poor massage.

La situation géographique en plein cœur du centre de Merida avec un parking payant mais bien pratique qui jouxte l’hôtel. La piscine est très appréciable aussi en rentrant de sortie à la journée.

El personal muy amable y atento. La ubicación esta excelente. La habitación limpia.

En las noches se escuchaba ruido, como si un motor estuviera encendido pero no supe si era del hotel o de otro lugar cerca. La señal de WiFi falla mucho.
