Delightful, quirky accommodation in an interesting area within easy walking distance of the centre. We loved Oaxaca and enjoyed our stay for the Dio de Muertes festivities. Our rooms were on the ground floor of the hostel and opened onto the garden. The rooms were lovely, but on the small side for two people sharing - not at all like the one in the photo. They need to provide bedside lamps.

The location is really good, very central. Huge hostel, it has so many floors and different spaces. Lovely rooftop. You have to climb lots of flights of stairs to reach the kitchen but it has good facilities. NO LAUNDRY SERVICE despite saying it has, but the launderette is around the corner and very cheap. The hostel is really clean and we appreciated that.

A great little guesthouse with both private rooms and dorms. It was really quiet when we were there and worth what we paid for it.
Location is quite good. Not bang in the centre of everything, but within 10min walk of all the main attractions. Food was close by. Some 50m away, some 1km. Happy with the location.
