My wife and I stayed two nights @ Hotel Mucuy, & thought the place was tough to beat for the money. If we dropped $90 a night, I would critique differently, but for $20-$30 this place was great. The staff, beds, location, and courtyard are all awesome. At this price, you are lucky to get a hostel bunk bed here in the states. We did request a 2nd set of pillows, because our 1st were pretty small/worn, and the staff accommodated us. They also helped arrange an early morning taxi to the airport for us. We would stay here again in a heartbeat...Merida was a good time, you will not want to spend a lot of time in your room!

If your like us we just need a bed to sleep on, at night, were out all day exploring so were not into the amenities of a five star hotel. This one was okay for us, it could have been a little bit cleaner, i saw at least 20 daddy long legs in our room, and many cobwebs, water did not run very well either. the owner an elder lady, very sweet and helpful. Nice little clean pool. Friendly Dog Wiskey on premises. for $25 dollars a night, you pay for what you get. So until i hilt the Lotto Mucuy is good for me.

After staying in much more expensive, upscale hotels for the previous 3 nights we stayed here. It was our first good nights sleep.
The rooms and bathroom are simple and clean. The courtyard and staff are great.

A very good hotel for the money!

After reading several positive reviews of the Mucuy, we decided to stay there. On arrival, the room had not been cleaned and we were greeted by two large roaches. Towels and linens were, we believe, simply put out to dry and never washed. To make a long story short, we found another hotel after some angry young person (we are 63/70) with diarrhea 'pooped' in the pool and the management just let it stink (no draing of pool or anything). I know this hotel was once a good place to stay but the lady running it is old and her staff is lazy, to put it mildly. BTW, we are fluent in Spanish.
