I recently stayed at Hotel Boutique Santa Elena and enjoyed the warm hospitality and historical charm. however, the comfort of the room left much to be desired. The building’s design is gorgeous, with ornate doors and a good façade, but the noise level from the street and lobby was bothersome. Overall, it’s a great choice for a short visit to Mérida, but I probably wouldn't opt for a longer stay due to some discomforts.
