    Kind of noisy with boisterous groups. but no “bad elements” just people having fun.

    I booked this for the wrong night, but they nevertheless let me stay there without charging me more when i showed up. very kind. not a fancy place, but safe and fairly well maintained. popular with big groups of boisterous folks who like to gather at the tables in the common area: early and late, but not too crazy. pretty good location on the edge of the central scene.

    Breakfast is good, however little hot cakes might be on better temperature.

    Water pressure very porr, absolutely no hot water, maybe lukewarm at very best. Internet/WiFi horrible to frequently nonexistent. Was overcharged according to rates posted in reception, but we were there for 5 nights during Dia de Muertos also. Wouldn't stay there again overall.

    Location was OK about 10 min to Zocalo. Breakfast included was nice on terraza, lady that runs it was very nice. Had safe in room.

    It looks and feels more like a drive-in motel than an actual hotel. The rooms are very basic. Toilet didn’t work in the beginning which was later fixed by the staff. We did not have any hot water. I assume they ramped up the price as it was Dia de Muertos. I guess It’s an “ok” hotel/motel if you’d pay less than we did.

    The location is ok and the breakfast was good. Staff were friendly and helpful.

    Sleepless in Oaxaca.

    We had to change the room after the first night due to the street noise and no hot (warm) water connection on the sink. Our exchange room as well as the original, had a non functional safe and despite an early complaint and acknowledgement was never attended to. As many others have noted, the water pressure, temperature, and regularity was severely inadequate and totally lacking on the morning of our departure. The beds and pillows were so bad that a good night's rest remained elusive during the four night stay that we reluctantly committed ourselves to. In retrospect this establishment should have been abandoned after the first night regardless of the waste of money incurred. Further, breakfast needed an apology for the deception rendered, and car parking inside the facilities added noise and fumes into the evening, as well as the early morning hours. It took three days of continual inquiry to secure an early taxi ride to the airport on the morning of our departure. I lost sleep over this. Finally, I'm embarrassed to say, the tiny tv never worked the whole time as well.

    The hotel was comfortably close to the Zocalo in the el Centro.

    Rooms were slightly small that I couldn’t undo my suitcase properly.

    Great value for being so close to the action of the city. Hot water took a while up but did eventually. Clean and safe

    The hot water only turned on at 7:00, they should put more toilet paper for family of 4.

    How clean the washrooms were the food was excellent, super great service, such amazing and kind staff. Really recommend this hotel and I will for sure come back.

    The place was horrible. It’s a rundown hotel. We had a rat in our room, other guests were complaining about having rats in their room. No hot water, asked couple of times for their attention. At all times nobody was in the front desk. I don’t recommend this hotel.

    Just the location was close to everything.
