This Hostal is very quiet! It’s clean and good for your money. Staff are very helpful. There are 24 hours front desk personnel so you feel safe! It will be great if the Hostal allow a bit drinking on the site. I think this will bring more customers to the Hostal!

This hostel is very centrally located, yet it was quiet enough for me to sleep well at night. It's very clean and the bed is comfortable. I love that they provide drinking water!! The only thing I would change is to make sure residents understand which bathrooms have hot water and which ones don't (some have solar heated water that can be quite chilly). Oh, and put thicker curtains on the window to keep out the light from the hallway.

La habitación super espaciosa, incluía closet, espejo de cuerpo completo, zapatera, una mesita plegable y una mesa pequeña frente al espejo. El baño es compartido pero muy amplio también y de higiene ningún tema. El personal fue muy amable y me dieron muy buena información siempre que les pregunté. Ofrecen agua y café complementarios. Los únicos contras que vi fue que la regadera y el inodoro están en el mismo espacio, y siendo un solo baño por piso, por las mañanas que mucha gente se baña te podías quedar sin acceso a un baño. La otra cuestión es que las habitaciones que dan a la calle reciben muchísimo ruido. Yo no tuve mucho problema para dormir pero alguien de sueño ligero creo que no podría pasar bien la noche, a veces pasan camiones grandes y hacen mucho escándalo. La habitación se llega a calentar bastante porque le da el sol y no hay ventilador, pero por el precio me parece razonable, en la noche no se sentía tan caluroso a pesar de todo. Tienen una terraza muy bonita y un pequeño gimnasio, en general está bien equipado el edificio. La ubicación es excelente, queda a un par de cuadras del zócalo, de dos mercados grandes (Benito Juárez y 20 de noviembre) y del mercado de artesanías. También está a unos veinte minutos de Santo Domingo y el museo de la cultura de Oaxaca. Me volvería a hospedar aquí.

Cheap stay but comfort not so high
The stay was cheap and the room and areas where large and clean. However comfort overall was low. Beds were hard as a brick and there are a lot of noise from traffic during the day and in the mornings, which not even ear plugs can block out (which might be a general thing in Oaxaca centro), so just be aware.

nice, cheap and clean
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.

Loved the coffee and water 24hrs. Loved my room and the upstairs deck. Staff was very nice. Location was awesome. Only negative was the kitchen wasn't sufficient for number of rooms and the refrigerator was too warm and my food spoiled. They think they are saving money. Eat in the street, it's wonderful, cheaper and you can find some great cheap restaurants.

My room was perfect for me -quiet, very large, very clean, comfy bed. The staff was nice and kept the coffee pot full and the water jug too. Great top deck for fresh air and coffee in the morning. Awesome location. The shared kitchen is the weak point. They only had two forks so I went next door and bought some, problem solved. The refrigerator is barely cool, typical in South America. They think it saves money. They desperately need four more burners. Only two people can cook at once but there is so much good food here in the street it is really not a big problem. I would kill for an ice machine. Overall though I will stay here again if I can get back to Oaxaca. Very good!

The rooms are very basic, however, they are private rooms, located 3 blocks from the zocalo and they keep everything very clean. Bathrooms are cleaned and stocked throughout the day rather than only once or twice. The ratio of bathrooms and showers to rooms was appropriate and the staff are helpful and friendly.

The rooms were clean and the location was excellent if you want to shop you walk out the door and your at the markets are 50 metres away. The more historical areas are more of a walk but overall great for the price.
