Joke and not a hotel

This hotel is a joke and not a hotel. Bathroom did not have a proper door, you could see someone in the toiled from the room! We were in 3 and asked for second key. They said they do not have it to give us but they have the second key for them to open door if we loose our and they said that if we need they can use it to open door for us. One of us came earlier and didn’t have a key and guess what? THEY DIDNT HAVE IT so she needed to wait 2h as we come back. That is also only hotel in the Mexico that we visited without purified water to use

The good: Our room was big and quite nice, with a small sofa and a desk. The location isn't the most amazing but easy to walk into town from here and a good convenience store nearby. The bad: the bathroom smelled really bad and the door wouldn't stay closed unless locked from the inside, so our room smelled. The shower flooded the entire bathroom and the floors were not cleaned properly. Only one usable power socket in the room. Tiny, uncomfortable pillows.

It's a 2 Star hotel, so nothing is deluxe. But, it's clean, efficient, comfortable, and convenient. The area in the daytime is full of local commerce and traffic, but after the ships closed, it's so quiet! The streets are almost empty. The hotel is in a side alley, so it's quiet. It's about a 15 minute walk to the very center of the city. Along the way, there are lots of shops and great restaurants. And the 3 main markets.

A Decent Little hotel for a short stay, cheap enough, good staff, clean, & reasonably quiet. The only downside was the shower had no pressure & was just dribbling out & the Location is not the best as it’s on the edge of a sketchy area.

The location was ok, maybe too seedy for some people but easily walkable to mercados, the zocalo and buses. I felt much more like burden than a guest here. A weird smell came from the drain but they give you a cover for it and make sure to keep the door closed and the fan on(the fan works very well). The water takes about 30 minutes to get warm(not hot) and lasts about 5 minutes.The decor is pretty cheesy and could be easily fixed. If you're on a budget it's ok for a couple nights.

Very cute, comfy and clean.

They were lovely to us, the location I couldn’t say that was ideal but if I wanted a ideal location I could just pay much more. The location is perfect for price value, better said it was very descent. The room was big, clean, and very comfortable. The hotel itself was very cute and the service was great.

Beautiful Clean Hotel

This was a beautiful new hotel located close enough to the Zocalo. There is great attention to detail in all of the decoration and the beds were nice and comfy. There was a nice terrace that caught the sun during the day as well. The cleaner does a fantastic job and they spotlessly clean the rooms each day and change the towels for you. The staff were lovely and even gave us free treats and a letter of apology(!) when they misplaced our keys for a very short while. Santiago was especially kind and gave us lots of recommendations for Day of the Dead activities. A really great option in Oaxaca. One of the nicest places we have stayed in our whole 11 month trip! Thanks guys!
