    we got a room right next to the reception. SUPER noisy, shall windows, stuffy air. the hotel is big and there were many free rooms, such a shame to the stuff that we got this terrible room. even tho on booking there’s a breakfast option, it’s actually a cafe nearby, not part of the hotel. the room is shabby and old. absolutely terrible experience!

    location is good

    The “Go home gringo” graffiti just outside main entrance of the hotel. Use of free bicycles were advertised and I had given staff a message long before our stay that we were interested in using them but they had flat tires. They did have them fixed but not until the last day of our 5 day trip stay so we had made other plans when we recognized it was happening anytime soon.

    Location was great and within walking distance to main plaza. Safe area to walk and close to restaurants and shopping.

    Listing on the hotel states we had use of a simple kitchen with fridge. NO. It is now a coffee shop that opens at 0800am (a bit late for locals enroute to work or for us planning a trip of touring that day.

    great location in town. Upper deck patio very comfortable. Cleaning staff working and always asked if we needed our room serviced.

    This was the third time I have stayed at this hotel, and I absolutely love it. The location couldn't be better. The space is open and colorful, with a gorgeous rooftop area with a view of the city where you can read or work. The staff is very friendly and the rooms were kept quite clean. I will keep coming back here as long as they are around.

    Pillows are too thick and too hard - hurt my neck. Used a bath towel as a pillow instead.

    This family-run posada is charming with quiet courtyards filled with brilliant bougainvilla flowers. Our quadruple room was quite large and comfortable. We appreciated the shared kitchen with a mini-fridge where we could store granola, milk, leftovers, etc. There's a breezy terrace at the top of the building with a view of the city. Very close to the main zocalo in a safe area. Would definitely stay there again.

    The hotel lacked a number of amenities that American travelers expect and take for granted. For example, the room had one hand towel and two body towels, but no washcloths. I ended up using the hand towel for my washcloth. In addition, the room had no facial tissue and due to the poor plumbing infrastructure, toilet paper could not be flushed. This is somewhat common throughout Mexico, so I don't consider it a deal breaker. However, some hotels have better plumbing than others. So, if this is important to you, you will want to stay elsewhere.

    The staff is very friendly and kind. The room was thoroughly cleaned each day which, in this day and age, is a plus. The king size bed was comfy and provided a good night's sleep. For an old, boutique-style, small hotel, and all things considered, it is well maintained. The location is good and within walking distance (or a short cab ride) of the many popular Oaxaca attractions and destinations. Lastly, it is a good value proposition if you are looking for a decent place to stay on a budget.

    The common areas of this property are really beautiful—the traditional courtyards are colorful and cozy. The location is great—it’s on a local street, but is just minutes from the historical town center and several great markets. Rooms are typical for this price range in Mexico. They are clean, well maintained, and a good size.

    Wish they would have at least offered complimentary coffee in the mornings. Some of the staff seemed a little closed off and unwelcoming.

    The smell coming out of the sewer grid in the bathroom. but that smell was present also in some areas of the city. It appears as if the floor sewer grid lacks a "trap" (water seal) common in the USA and Europe. We placed a plastic mat to stop it.

    The personal attention by the staff. They were so much helpful in making our stay even more memorable as they were aware that what we needed was a home base from which explore the city.
