From the informative, happy to help staff (Frank on reception especially!) to the constant cleaning that goes on, to the amazing breakfast, i have zero complaints about this place. A lady comes and makes your bed every morning, the internet is fast and free, the sofas and bean bags are new and comfortable and they have a massive DVD collection,... More

Magnificent. So far its the best place that I have stayed in Mexico and one of the nicest and most enjoyable places I have ever stayed in the world. I was going to stay in Oaxaca for 3 nights but I stayed for 7 as I had such a good time! The staff are excellent and English speaking, the facilities... More

This is a fantastic hostel - the best I have stayed in in Mexico. The hostel has everything you need, is a lovely place to hang out in and the staff are fantastic. Highly recommended.

I stayed there for 3 nights. It was ok. Ok room, showers in another floor, terrible breakfast. But the most annoying was that I bough I tour at the hostel and they charged me 50% (FIFTY PERCENT!!!) more than everyone else who was in the exact same tour. This is beyond unreasonable, it is not acceptable. I felt like I... More

I had an excellent stay at this place. Jose and Lizbeth are great host and are very helpful. The breakfast was really good and the place was neat and clean. It is very close to the first class bus stop ADO and it is right off of Llano Grande. Oaxaca city is mainly 2 cities, one is a small touristic... More

We got a private room with bathroom that was large, great shower pressure and lots of hot water, window looking out onto a treed courtyard. They encourage you to refill your water bottles with purified water in the lobby area, free internet with a good, fast connection, the young girl at reception speaks excellent english and is very friendly, breakfast...

Maybe a little bit impersonal but a really great hostel. Room and bathroom were super clean, comfy beds, fast internet, good breakfast, nice outdoor terrace and full equiped kitchen. Many enjoyable common areas with couches, plasma tvs, dvd, and computers. Many hostels should learn and know from them that you can travel in a budget and get 1st class service.... More

Well priced and rather clean, this hostel is a good entry point for Oaxaca. Breakfast, linen, free internet, 4 pc's, kicker table, and this for 150 pesos in a 12er dorm. The only drawback is the somewhat impersonal atmosphere, I experienced (though, I only stayed for one night, off-season). Will recommend in the future.

In front of a very nice park and very close from the city center this hostel is centrally located for a short or long stay in Oaxaca
