First of all, out of a month of travelling, staying in 9 different hotels. This was the only one that I had to pay for in advance. Now I know why!
After 6 hours of travelling, I walked into the Hotel around 1:00 PM and saw a sign for "All Day Breakfast". Great, I love breakfasts at any time of the day.
When I tried to order I was told by Peter that the kitchen was closed because they were preparing for a Mariachi Festival that evening. The free phones and Internet were not working, so there was no way to call a taxi. No problem, I walked back into town to get some lunch, and spent the day wandering around Progresso.
Around 7:00 PM, I went back to the Hotel, and prepared for dinner. Guess what! The only meal available was part of the Mariachi Festival, priced at $ 35.00 US, which was too much for my budget. I asked Peter if the kitchen could just make me a Burger or a sandwich. He said "I can't put the staff through that kind of stress."
Still no phone, so I walked back to town to get something to eat. The free Internet never did work. The free breakfast the next day was make yourself some toast, after which I carried my luggage back to the Bus Depot, and left Progresso!

We originally wanted to stay in Merida for 6 days but after 1 day, went to Progresso because Merida was just too busy and too many people. Stayed at Casa Isidora and loved it. Rooms were clean and cozy, very friendly people, good food and overall a place to return to without hesitation. Met lots of friendly people there who we will keep in touch with. Peter and Marion were great hosts and staff at Casa Isidora were very helpfull especially Miguel.Progresso proved to be very layback,a very safe place to wonder around in and quite inexpensive. This is the type of place you can call "A home away from home". We will probably return next year.

Me and my family of wife, 3 kids a, a dog and 2 cats spent a fabulous time in Porgreso at Casa Isidora. These peopel sure love children and animals. The food was great, the room very cleana and the staff helpful. We will send our friends their way. A 100 year old mansion became our home. Thank you Casa Isidora.

We first stayed at a place on the malecon waterfront, but after three sweaty nights on questionably clean sheets that popped off the unquestionably dirty and painful mattresses, we fled and luckily found sanctuary at the Casa Isidora, where we stayed for a week. The AC was heaven, the sheets were CLEAN and smooth on an extremely comfortable bed, our room was spotless, as well as the bathroom, which had a large, powerful shower. It is a renovated Spanish hacienda around 100 years old with lovely tiled floors. I found the ambience to be wonderful and the staff polite and kind. The owners were very helpful, informative, and good people. We'll definitely go back, and will send our friends.
