Hospedaje agradable.

El hotel está bien ubicado, atención por parte del personal muy buena. Único pero, es el estacionamiento que no está cerca la propiedad, el horario es limitado y nos pidieron cooperación económica por qué el hotel solo cubre las noches y no el día. Consideren $70 pesos extra por día de estacionamiento.

The property was lovely with a lot of charm and excellent service. I didn't give it five stars just because the motorcycles were all stored in the lobby area, and it looked unappealing.

Close to historic sites and amazing restaurants and bars. I enjoyed walking everywhere in town from it. This place has all the amenities I needed, including a daily carafe of water in the room and an AC unit. The only issue I had was the doorbell of the hotel. It does not function well. Often pressing the doorbell did not notify the front desk.

Hotel was VERY clean. Loved the charm and colors! Price and location was great, easy access to Centro and easy access to taxis. Only downside was the bathroom was very hot and because of the vent on the door the smell of the bathroom would fill the room. Other than that everything was good and would definitely recommend it!

This property was so beautiful with courtyard gardens and cafe, terraza and roof top Jacuzzi with panoramic views! It made the longer walk from the bus station worth it! It was only 10 minutes from the Zocolo in Centre and close to several nearby parks and churches and cafes and restaurants. I would highly recommend. The view alone is spectacular and not to be missed!

Wonderful Stay, Good Location and Fair Price!

Pretty property very close to the center of everything, quiet, no huge amenities but the small lounging pool has a beautiful view! Our room under the pool deck could be a little loud at times due to machinery but overall we really enjoyed it and was fair for the price. Staff were a plus, available 24/7 and helped us book our taxi transport to the airport when we left. Would return!

The property lists no cancellation policy in Expedia. None. I did not intend to book this property and accidentally tapped on it. At this point a "no cancellations" policy was made visible. Calls to Expedia to explain the error in booking were met with assurances that they would "sort it out" but in the end they failed to do this. Management at this property was unresponsive and generally unhelpful and the lack on onsite parking was a deal breaker. Overall, I'd call this a scam that is all about fleecing people out of money. Apparently hanging onto an accidental charge they didn't deserve was more important than making a potential future client and neighbor happy. Not even a partial refund for nights more than 24 hours out was possible despite attempting to cancel within ten minutes of making the booking by accident. They will never get my booking or recommendation with that kind of attitude.

It was close to Oaxaca's centre yet just outside so the rate was great. The only issue I had is that the AC unit was blowing cold air all night directly to our bed, therefore, I got a cold. Other than that the Hotel is great.

The room we stayed in was modest but very comfortable. It was quiet (and surprisingly cool) at night and allowed for good sleep, which we desperately needed after some hectic and sleepless nights in CMDX. Staff was courteous and without prompt, honored our request to arrange a taxi back to the airport at the exact time we requested. The AC in the room worked wonders.
