The location was perfect for one who wanted to be near the town square. The room was very simple. My only complaint is that the hot water (to shower) was not left on while my stay. I had to call to let them know when I’d need it turned on. The front desk also needs more welcoming and attentive employees-suggestion. Sometimes nobody was present or a stare was all we got when we would arrive for the night.
Love the location of the hotel across from the 2 main Markets. 20 the Noviembre Market were all the delicious food you can find at a very good price. Across is the Mercado Benito Juarez where you can find all the best Artesanias of the region. The Hotel had its charm, It’s an old, but they are working in renovations. location is perfect right in the center of Oaxaca. The ladies working there were very nice to us and answered all our questions. My only complaint was the hard bed. I book the hotel for one day and 4 days after my stay not knowing the bed was hard. I had to stay in the hotel because my stay was non-refundable, but I am happy our next room was much nicer and the bed not as hard as our first stay. I really recommend this hotel. I really love it.

Hotel cercana de mercados..
En lo personal no me gusto las camas y almohadas incomodas, las regadera pequeñas e incómodas;y la televisión no funcionaban..la ubicación del hotel es céntrico..
Se anuncian como que tienen estacionamiento y NO ES CIERTO.
LES IMPORTA UN COMINO DÓNDE DEJES TU CARRO. NO TE APOYAN PARA NADA Y DICEN QUE ESO NO ES SU CULPA.
Muy mala experiencia.
No lo recomiendo para nada.
Lo único que no me agrado fue la cama muy incómoda y super ruidosa ya que tiene base de madera y las almohadas son mucho menos que cojines ya muy aplastados sin ningún soporte o comodidad, si mejorarán este aspecto sería mucho mejor calificación en general.

Es un hotel muy antiguo en instalaciones pero la relación precio habitación está muy bien se esmeran en la limpieza camas sábanas toallas muy limpias y su personal muy atento en verdad excelente opción de hospedaje económico
El hotel engaña en la información que presenta en su anuncio. No tiene estacionamiento, el mobiliario que muestra no es el que tiene. Te engañan diciendo que tú habitación tiene vista a la calle y te dan una interior. Cortan el agua caliente, debes pedir que la pongan. La pantalla de TV deja mucho que desear. Prefieren pagos en efectivo y obstaculizan facturar. Vi a varios huéspedes reclamar por cobros cancelados y no reembolsados. No hay internet en l habitación y es un problema para que te compartan la clave Wifi
Una estancia muy tranquila. El hotel es muy básico, cómodo en general pero con pocas amenidades. La ubicación es excelente, puedes comer en los mercados de enfrente delicioso y a buen precio, a dos calles del zócalo. Volveríamos a quedarnos ahí si se necesitara.
