Casa Techos Altos

Overall, this is an okay place to stay, but I would not highly recommend it to future travelers for the following reasons: 1. The bathroom configuration is a bit strange. The pool house has its own bathroom, and the master bedroom in the main house has its own bathroom. However, the third bathroom connects to both the master bedroom and the main hallway. This means that two of the bedrooms do not have their own bath, and those rooms' occupants also have to worry about the master bedroom occupants hearing them use the bathroom in the night. 2. The internet stopped working on our second day. I tried calling and emailing the management company to address this issue, but I was not able to connect with anyone. This may not be an issue for future travelers - it said a payment was owed when we tried to access the internet, so this will likely be resolved. However, the difficulty in reaching the management company in case of problems may affect others, as well. 3. The A/C unit in the master bedroom dripped a significant amount of water (enough to soak a bathmat) and did not cool very well. 4. The sink in the master bathroom may be falling off the wall. My parents felt they could not place anything on sink, which was inconvenient. 5. The house is much darker in real life than in the pictures. 6. The pool house does not have curtains on the windows that face the pool area, so those occupants may feel they have insufficient privacy. 7. The rental agreement you sign upon arrival contains some strict clauses to avoid extra bills. You have to wash the dishes, dry them, and put them away. You also have to empty all the trash cans before you leave. As mentioned in other reviews, you have to pay for the electricity you consume. 8. I believe it says somewhere in the forms we signed that a maintenance person will clean the pool during stays longer than one week. However, a man came to clean the pool on our second day, while my sister was at the AirBnb by herself. Although he did not mean any harm, the unexpected visit made her feel a bit unsettled. ------ On a positive note, the location is very convenient for exploring downtown Merida, and our bills for electricity were quite cheap.
