Blocks from most of the shops and main areas. Smaller rooms. Staff was accommodating. Restaurant has good pricing but not open daily. Parking is not on location, but about 8 minute walk. Was hard with luggage n toddler. The hotel was able to schedule transport to the airport.

Close to everything, but things to know ..

It's a nice hotel, clean, centrally located. Staff is excellent and helpful. Things to know: pay for your room in advance (we weren't given the option) because if your traveling from another country they don't accept credit card, they request a Zelle or similar bank transfer and the exchange rate is at their discretion. We expected this and brought MX $ in cash to avoid this. Oaxaca is cold in Dec, hotel rooms have no heat. Blankets provided are thin, request more. Mattress and pillows are hard, we could live with it but someone with back issues might not do well. Hotel is close to el Zocala and Mercados Juarez (fresh produce, leather goods, handmade crafts) & 20 de Noviembre (food courts). These markets are separted by a street.

El hotel está aceptable, en una buena zona del centro de Oaxaca, sin embargo, el estacionamiento está a cinco cuadras de distancia, no te advierten que tiene costo sino hasta el último momento, en el estacionamiento es obligatorio dejar la llave y si les comentas que tienes objetos en el coche, no se hacen responsables de nada.

Joya de Oaxaca

El hotel está en el corazón del Centro Histórico, un hotel modesto pero súper bien acondicionado, incluso con elevador. La habitación 41 tenía un mural muy pintoresco. Los baños muy limpios y con ventana. Buena presión de la regadera y agua caliente. Las almohadas muy duras para mi gusto. Tenían una terraza especial para fumadores. La TV solo canales de cable. El internet bien. El restaurante anexo al hotel con comida económica y con tres opciones por día, así como comida a la Carta. Tienen un horno para hacer el pan y las tlayudas son muy ricas. La ubicación del hotel está a una cuadra del mercado Juárez y 20 de Noviembre, a dos cuadras del Zócalo y a 5 cuadras de Santo Domingo.
