The place was very clean with colorful and interesting decor. The courtyard in the middle was very inviting though we didn't take the time to enjoy it. The staff are very friendly. The neighbourhood is, well Mexico, but it is only 3 blocks to the Zocalo, so an excellent location. If you are tall your knees may hit the wall when you sit on the toilet.

Nice hotel with very friendly staff just a few blocks from the main plaza, many restaurants, museums, great shopping, gym, chocolate shops, chill coffee shops. There is a kitchen area. The courtyard features several umbrella tables where you can eat or drink. They also provide recycling bins on site. Affordable and convenient.

Centrally located with everything you need
The hotel is pretty central to everything, just a short walk to the zocalo and restaurants. The hotel is away from the city noise which is nice. The staff is really nice and helpful and the rooms are super clean. There are no luxuries, this hotel is very minimalist and the bed was a little hard. However, it was good for a short visit in Oaxaca and a safe distance to walk during the night.

This place was really wonderful. The outdoor space is nice and relaxing, staff is great, the cleaning staff cleaned the room to spotless every day. It’s pretty close to Mercado Benito Juárez and zocalo square (4-6 blocks) but a little far and a little dark to walk alone as a solo female. Although this is true for most cities. The shower had great hot water and pressure, the tv had tons of channels, both Mexican and American channels (in English). 2 small gripes: the mattress was very hard and extremely uncomfortable. Maybe some of the rooms have new mattresses, I’m not sure. I had a lot of hip and back pain and had trouble sleeping on it. Second, the door to the room had only one tiny lock on the knob which would have been very easy to break into. I’ve traveled extensively all over the world and never had a hotel that didn’t have a deadbolt or additional lock. Just a thought, but some added security would be nice.
