Klein paradijsje
Pros:

Mega leuk en vriendelijk personeel dat ons ook goed heeft geholpen met allerlei leuke adresjes in Oaxaca en het boeken van tours. Hotel ligt in een leuke straat. De kamer was super schoon. De binnentuin is een oase van rust en fijn om je dag te starten met een kopje koffie.

Cons:

Onze airco kreeg wat kuren, maar dat werd goed opgelost door het personeel.

Pros:

Ubicación del hotel

Cons:

Una situación muy grave que la administración del hotel manifiesta es que por las reservaciones de Booking no deja escoger la habitación que uno desea si no la que ellos disponen a pesar de haber disponibilidad

Wenn Ihnen Schlaf und Nettigkeit wichtig sind, ist das nicht empfehlenswert
Pros:

Die Lage und der schöne Innenhof sind super, sonst nichts wirkliches. Aber wunderschöne Stadt

Cons:

Ich schreibe selten schlechte Bewertungen, aber... Das Personal könnte wirklich netter sein, außer einer älteren Mitarbeiterin. Wir haben zwei Nächte dort übernachtet, am Montag und Dienstag. Das Zimmer lag auf der Straßenseite, was wegen der Autos schon sehr laut war, aber mit Ohrstöpseln und aufgrund der Müdigkeit von der Reise wäre es okay gewesen... Am Dienstagvormittag hatten wir eine Wanderung in der Sierra Norte gebucht, für die sie uns um 8:00 Uhr morgens abholen mussten.
Am Montagabend, als wir bereits fürs Schlafengehen fertig waren, fingen kurz vor 23 Uhr direkt vor unseren Fenstern Bauarbeiter an zu arbeiten: Sie haben irgendetwas im gegenüberliegenden Garten gemacht und Betonstücke einfach ins LKW geworfen. Der Lärm war nicht erträglich, das Fenster hat vibriert, das Zimmer auch.
Nach 3 Stunden, gegen 2 Uhr, habe ich der Rezeption geschrieben und die Lage geschildert.
Endlich waren sie um 4 Uhr morgens fertig und ich konnte meine 3 Stunden schlafen. Mittags sind wir zur Rezeption gegangen und der unfreundlichste Mitarbeiter hat einfach geantwortet: „Es ist nicht unsere Schuld.” Kein „Tut mir leid”, keine Entschuldigung, kein Angebot eines Rabattes oder Zimmertauschs. Auf meine Frage, ob wir wenigstens ein anderes Zimmer im Innenhof bekommen könnten, antwortete er, er wisse es nicht. Ich sagte, das könne nicht sein, und endlich kam eine etwas nettere Frau. Auch von Ihr keine Entschuldigung, aber sie meinte, sie würden schauen. Ein Zimmer war frei, aber wir mussten sofort auschecken. Draußen wartete schon unsere Guide für die Tour. Das Zimmer haben wir dann abends bekommen, direkt neben der Rezeption, aber wenigstens nicht auf der Straße (dafür sehr laut mit den Gästen, aber erträglich). Beim Ankommen hatten wir auch nach einem Wäscheservice für Klamotten gefragt. Uns wurde ein Preis mitgeteilt, der aber wiederum am End etwas teurer war. Unsere Lust zu diskutieren war aber null. Schade, denn die Stadt ist unglaublich schön, voller Kultur und Museen.

Felt like a nice hotel, in a good location. A disappointment with our room, especially on the main floor close to noisy
Pros:

Good Location, historic centre of Oaxaca, next door to Textile museum, walking distance of Zocalo, museums, restaurants, market,etc. Staff did their best to accommodate our needs. Stored our luggage for the day before we left. Tried to help give instructions. A lovely interior, through main entrance of hotel, quiet garden patio, often dark.

Cons:

I would not rate comfort 8.6!!! facilities 8.1!! staff 9.1!!! Given the location of main floor room, noisy feeling unsafe, small bathroom with no surface space at all. After much correspondence with Hotel Dainzu staff before we arrived, they offered us and we accepted 2 rooms together on the second floor. This was not honoured upon arrival. We were told rooms unavailable. A big disappointment, The first assigned room-was on The second floor-thankful staff carried luggage upstairs, very hard mattress, no extra blanket given when requested. The second assigned room, was the disappointment, because it was on first floor, room 107-do not recommend. Staying as a single older person did not feel safe. The small room was located right inside the doors of the lobby, close to the street, as people-guests, staff walked by room heard movement & voices-staff early morning hours, evening radio from lobby, short inside curtain covered the window facing courtyard,no extra security locks on door-ie dead bolt, chain across door given closeness to lobby. It was frustrating for us that we unfortunately didn’t speak enough Spanish & grateful a little English was spoken by Staff. But we had great difficulty explaining our disappointment about the rooms. A staff was able to access my previous correspondence on their computer as I stood at the counter. Apologies were given. Nothing could be done.
