Great Stay for Solo Female Travel!

I cannot recommend Ginger Banana enough! The hostel is nice and centrally located. The space is calm, clean, and cute.The space was great, but the best part of Ginger Banana was the people! The staff seriously went above and beyond to help me navigate the city/find tours and make me feel welcome. They helped me feel comfortable and taken care of as a solo traveler. If you’re looking to visit Oaxaca City, definitely stay here.

Amazing hostel. Clean. Bunks were comfy and space was not crammed even though they were ”many”. Service was great and it felt very home-y. Great areas for socializing. One of the better hostels I’ve stayed at. Very chill vibe so if you are looking for a party vibe kind of place, this is not it. But truly amazing.
