I had a great stay at Casona 61, especially thanks to the wonderful staff, particularly Dayana and Alonzo, who made me feel very welcomed. The hotel's decor is beautiful and the location is perfect for exploring Merida. However, I did notice that the linens could use a good wash as they appeared slightly dingy, even though they smelled fresh.

Overall, I appreciated the helpful staff and modern feel of the boutique setting.
