Maybe if the breakfast could start earlier as 9am is a bit late if you wish to get out and about early. Also it was very cold at night and I only got a thin sheet and blanket, got a bit of a cold because of this, but overall good.

Sharing in a dorm but without bunk beds, and a privacy sheets between was a great alternative to the traditional hostel bed experience. They foster a very social environment with regular activities that most guests wish to engage in. Gorgeous rooftop for the bar and to hangout on. Excellent location to Centro and the bus station.

Bathrooms smelly and dirty

Good location and nice people

The room does get a little hot. Another would be the internet connection was terrible it would keep on disconnecting and it said no signal.

Staff was really welcoming even if I got there a couple minutes late. Everyone is social and they have a WhatsApp group chat that keeps everyone looped in on events or runs to get stuff that you might need for your stay.

The shower is bad, almost without water..

The living room is beautiful, the terrace is really nice! I stayed in a 8 bed dorm, where the bed is very comfortable and there is good privacy... The breakfast is simple, but ok.

The breakfast is very small and not filling. But a good place to sit and meet people.

Staff is super nice and speak english. There is a pub on the roof witch is a meeting place in the evenings (with happy hour). Lots of common spaces to meet the other people in the hostel. The dorm rooms have some piracy with a curtain.

High standard complaints here, but I'd wish for more, and nicer lights, e.g. to go down the stairs of the large room, or the lamp next to the beds. .

Common area, rooftop chill area, spacious kitchen, location in the city, and the comfy beds! All in all great place to stay in the middle of oaxaca!

Location

Stayed in December 2023

If this was a Real estate ad, the property would be described as having rustic “charm” and “character”. Communal area seating featured gym mat style mattresses, bathrooms were ok but poor water pressure. For the price, it’s a popular place, but facilities feel a bit run down. An ok hostel but definitely not the best I’ve stayed at in travels through Mexico and Central America.

Great location, the included breakfast was tasty and ample, and I appreciated that while the hostel had a social/friendly atmosphere they respected quiet hours with a firm 11pm for the bar/music to shut down. I had booked a private room and found the bed comfortable and clean.

Kitchen closes at 22:00 (why?), at least leave a water bottle outside. Shower has a low pressure.

Great atmosphere, full of life and travelers. Owner is very nice and welcoming. Terrace to do yoga, eat breakfast or chill. Big kitchen. Would be nice to have hammocks there! And other beer options in the bar. Beds with curtains give you some privacy in dorm. Okay breakfast.

I didn’t like the breakfast: not a good atmosphere, no good welcoming (no smile from the woman , no chats, only the token talk a bit military) and the size of the breakfast was too short and not so tasty (the count of the number of 4 bananas pieces and if we asked more it was often a « no » and sometimes not even warm enough.

I loved the activities proposed: the salsa lesson, the sun rising and sunset ballads, the happy hours (the barman talked about the mezcal with passion and shared his knowledge), .. The staff at the reception was great! The clean lady was sweet: always smiling to the guests even if doesn’t seem to be easy for her to get what she needed.

The showers had a very low pressure and sometimes the WiFi didn't work that well.

The common areas were lovely, with multiple places you could socialise or relax. The breakfast and location were also fantastic! The hostel organised many activities as well, so there was always something to do.

Friendly staff. Nice bar on the terrace. Ok breakfast

Sometimes a bit loud because of the open court but on the rooftop they turn off the music at 23.00h

Very helpful stuff, nice bar on the rooftop, hammocks and coosy spots everywhere, good location

Stayed in August 2023

Not much, just that it would nice if the breakfast hour starts earlier

Spacious common area and kitchen. Comfortable bed with enough privacy in a dorm. Central location that you can walk around the city by foot. Offer different activities daily for travelers to socialize.

The bed space itself was a bit dark and just didn't feel as cosy as some other hostels. It's also right by a door outside so can be cold/mosquitos coming in. Very clean though!!

The people are lovely and friendly! Very helpful too. The communal areas are great - with a bar on the roof top terrace. It's clean and facilities are great.

Stayed in August 2023

The facilities could have been cleaner, my bed had ripped sheets and the ladder next to bunk 9 in the pink room is positioned such that anyone in bunk 10 has to climb into my bunk first. Kinda awkward.

The location was the best you could ask for and the what's app group was super helpful. Everything to see in Oaxaca historical center was within 10min walking distance!

There was not much to dislike. Everyone seemed quite young - we are 32, most of the guests seemed 20 but it's normal :-D

It was so colourful and had lots of hangout areas, including the rooftop and lobby. Our room was small but cozy, with a fan :)

Shower and batroom. Not light in the dorm, bottom dorm the ceiling is to low.

The rooftop and the general vibe of the place. Not fancy at all but cozy
