This is an excellent home-base for an extended stay in Oaxaca. The two-room roof-garden apartment is particularly fine – remarkably quiet and private. The two courtyard rooms are also clean and comfortable, with the add-on pleasure of a daily breakfast of fresh fruit and granola. Gary Titus – the gentleman who founded and presides over the school—is extremely helpful in... More

The Oaxaca Learning Center offers guests the opportunity to stay in a small,friendly, and comfortable lodging. The Center is a few blocks from the zolaco (city plaza) so it's quiet, while still an easy stroll to the center square, restaurants, and museums. The center itself is a non-profit which offers students from surrounding rural areas a place to be tutored... More

Many of the students who use to mill around the courtyard and occupy the chairs and hammocks have been move around the corner. The school has expanded to a second location. This changes the whole experience of... More

The apartment is tastefully decorated, has a well supplied kitchen, and feels spacious. Outside of the apartment you have access to a sunny rooftop cactus garden that is nice to read a book or...

I have returned to this lovely learning center several times- the room, breakfasts and company are delightful. It's not for those who want absolute peace & quiet- it is a center where young people (basically teens) who are smarter and more dedicated than most of the students I have taught for 30 years come daily to make a difference in...
