Casa Balam - Another great stay in Merida

We have been staying at Balam for 5 years now when we have come to Merida. Staff are great, rooms and large and comfortable and the location is perfect. We highly recommend Casa Balam.

Great location in Merida Centro. Walking distance to wide selection of restaurants, stores, and historic plazas. The hotel has character and architectural appeal but is in need of some repairs and updating. My husband and I had booked a premium room with 2 queen beds, but upon arrival were given a small room with one full bed. We spent an uncomfortable first night but were able to change rooms the next day. The hotel and restaurant staff were friendly and accomodating.

The property was more run down than the photos show on the website. The room was pretty but dirty. One of our rokms didnt have ac, clean towels or a working shower. The staff were nice and the restaurant was very nice and served us by the pool. The hotel is in an excellent location however. Overall we would stay again.

Just okay

Great customer service and location but condition of the room and bathroom was very poor. Cannot control AC temperature asked for a portable fan. Shower head broken water coming out everywhere. Not much toiletries just shampoo and bar soap. No tissue paper, vanity set, no hand or face towel. No safe box, had to carry around a huge wood key chain for room key, bigger than my cross body bag Pictures very nice but not the way the room is.

Arrived at 4:30 pm the room was not ready. When we finally got in the room the last century tv did not work, the fridge was also on its last leg. There were no glasses in the room. One of the lamps had a short, I disconnected it.. let’s forget about the seemingly clean floor until you walked barefoot on it. I would pass on this hotel
