We were a group of 14 friends that flew from across Canada to meet up for my 30th birthday in the beautiful streets of Roma Norte. Our hosts were particularly accommodating to our varying flight arrivals. Katia left keys for our group (you can request more if needed, which is what we ended up doing for such a large group).
New photos were posted prior to our trip, but even those did not do justice to how lovely the space is in person. As the listing notes, there are bathrooms in each room with additional lavatories on the main floor - very practical. Alejandro, the night keeper, was kind and welcoming (his room is right off of the dinning room). The ice tubs in the kitchen were perfect to bring on the rooftop patio for cocktail hour and the street food stalls across the street were a lovely pairing to the fresh beer / mezcal on the rocks we drank. The neighborhood and location is an easy 20-30 Uber to the airport - do not rely on google streetview, Merida is a lovely street walking distance from convenience stores, churrerias and many street food vendors (the main purpose of this birthday trip).
Our check-out process was smooth and accommodating. Some of us were flying a bit later in the day, while others were moving to hotels for an extended stay. In light of this, Katia gave us the opportunity to check out about an hour later, which was much appreciated. The only downside would be that our leftover alcohol, water and soda had been 'moved' from the dinning table into a plastic bag hidden away from sight. After inquiring with the cleaner, our items were returned to our friends that planned to stay in the city a few extra days. It was simply odd that our belongings had been moved and stored away. That said, everything else was perfect.
Our whole group highly recommends this space for large groups and we thank our hosts for such a lovely experience. Muchas gracias por todo.
