The service her was awful. My friend and I were both sick in bed (me with a headcold, my friend with a digestive problem), and when we called for a roll of toilet paper, the attendant flat out refused. He said the hotel has a one roll of paper per room per day policy, and apparently we had already gone... more

My wife and I have stayed at the Posada Catarina several times. The staff is nice, and the rooms are clean. We stayed in early June and paid $50 U.S for a king sized room. This hotel is close to the Zocolo and everything else. more

We stayed a total of four nights at Catarina which is located very near the noisey markets, both artisan and other. The night time desk clerk, Julio, was uniformly indifferent and rude to the simplest requests such as replacing the large water bottle on the dispensing machine replying that there was none and that it was "an optional service of... more

A good friend who travels to Oaxaca often told me about the Posada Catarina and a while later I drove down with two friends and we checked into another hotel very near the Zocalo which really was not wonderful. Strolling about the next day we passed the Catarina and we went in to check it out and promptly returned to... more

In July of 2005, I had the pleasure of discovering Posada Catarina--what a great bargain! The staff, especiallly Carlos and Cesar welcome you as if you were a member of their family and treat you royally. It is clean, quiet and located near three markets and a skip and a jump from the zocalo. You are allowed one hour of... more

If you are looking for somewhere clean, reasonably priced and well located, this is a terrfic deal. Will discount if you pay cash in pesos. It was 400 pesos per night / approx USD 38 Close to the Zocolo and 3 markets - very nicely located and easy walking distance to all. Has a nice terrace on roof. Our room... more

My wife and I have stayed at the Posada Catarina five times. It is comfortable and nicely decorated. There is a fan in the room and is very convenient. Be careful when leaving. The guys at the front desk are running a scam on us gringos saying the taxi to the airport is $1200 pesos. They are getting a kickback... more

Posada Catarina is very welcoming. I've stayed there twice over the last 2 years, and both times was impressed. It is a quite oasis in the hustle and bustle of the market district. The location is great - five munute walk from the Zocalo. The rooms are very authentically decorated; to keep it quite, ask for one on the second... more

Great staff, clean rooms. They have a nice roof garden that is great for relaxing in the evening. We stayed there for 8 days. The hotel is not luxurious, but it is nice. more
