The location is incredibly convenient. It’s close to all the bars and restaurants in the area, but far enough away that you won’t be disturbed by the noise. Itzel was incredibly helpful with her recommendations. She always gave the right suggestions for places to visit and things to do. Thanks a lot!

Very enjoyable stay, travelling solo and appreciated the 24/7 front desk who were all lovely. Close to some great bars and restaurants for drink or dinner and to walk home safely. Beautiful quaint property with lovely colourful decorations. Room was comfortable enough though the mattress was very firm and water pressure a bit light. Not deal breakers for me though. The restaurant attached is small and generally only open for breakfast and lunch, maybe because was quiet at hotel but while food was fine, given Oaxacan cuisine is amazing I was expecting more and would have eaten elsewhere on reflection but was convenient and amaZing views over city towards San Domingo church. Would recommend as a lovely spot to explore Oaxaca from and be very comfortable and excellent service :)
