Excellent
The staff and property is amazing, the only negative problem is the sound, I could hear everything from my room especially the washer spinning, the staff cleaning. Overall I would stay there again, just make sure I cover my ears

A very clean well kept hotel. The entire staff was very kind and helpful.
The only problem I recommend to be done to our room is to fix the drainage in the shower drain system. The water stays in the area and it doesn’t drain properly.
Other than we highly recommended the hotel.

The aesthetic of the property was beautiful! Dining options and a small bodega were walking distance. Parking spots are available outside the hotel or 2 spots in the garage are available. I’d definitely stay here again.

No hot water in our room - the water in the shower would barely come out. Housekeeping doesn’t knock they just walk in.

Family of 5 adults. Very clean. Nice aesthetic. Love the quiet neighborhood. Good cafes and restaurants nearby and the walk into the center of town every day is one of the best parts of the experience. Helpful staff. Rooftop deck simple and nice, good place for quick coffee/pastry/eggs. There are issues with hot/cold water and sewage smells that the hotel is struggling with. Recommend with the knowledge that this is part of traveling in Mexico.

could be better
Hotel is well located, very easy to walk to downtown. But, room is small, bath doesn't smell good and is a bit noisy

Very nice boutique hotel out of the way of the action but close enough to walk in and absorb the vibes of the zuccalo & downtown. Staff were very friendly and accommodating. We will stay there again next time we’re in Oaxaca

Xochimilco rocks
Location is great; close to an excellent panaderia. The regular rooms are rather small and therefore lacking in furniture but this is expected for a colonial style building. There is a restaurant on the top floor which is useful in a pinch for breakfast. We took advantage of a Monte Alban etc. tour which was very good (4 out of 5). There was someone there to man the front door at all times, so security was excellent. There was also some pan dulce for some mornings in the lobby. This location is quieter than Centro but the morning and evening rush hours are very busy in the street. Excellent place to start your walking tour of the city!

Wonderful clean hotel, great common area with hammocks or a table if you feel like getting out of the room for a beer or two.
Great location, walkable to centro but still quiet. The hosts were great and friendly and a coffee, fruit and a bakery item for a quick snack as you leave to explore the city is a great touch!
