The hotel is wonderfully located, making it easy to visit Oaxaca downtown. It's very central and very close to Zocalo. The rooms are comfortable, exceptionally clean, and okay. The service is efficient and helpful, covering housekeeping, laundry, and tours/ticket assistance. The location is comfortable for exploring the area, and it's in town. The dining experience offers delicious baked chocolate cakes. Overall, the facilities are satisfactory, and the value for money is worthwhile.
This hotel is a great find in Oaxaca! The rooms are super clean and comfy, and the staff is incredibly friendly. The location is central and very convenient for exploring downtown. However, the dining options could be more varied, and the hotel lacks some modern facilities.
My stay at the hotel was excellent. The rooms were comfortable and exceptionally clean, facing the courtyard. The friendly staff provided great service. The location was very central, making it convenient to visit Oaxaca downtown, and it was very close to Zocalo. The dining experience with fruit preserves was delightful. Overall, a wonderful experience.
