Pros:

Familiäre Atmosphäre, das Frühstück war ortstypisch und jeden Tag ein anderes Hauptgericht. Das Personal ist super freundlich. Die kleine Dachterrasse hat uns sehr gut gefallen; man sieht von dort Monte Albán.

Cons:

Es hat uns nicht gestört, aber man sollte wissen, dass man den Autolärm von der Strasse relativ gut hört.

Pros:

Cute space great staff great location

Cons:

Hot water didn’t work until well into my second night staying — that’s a prettty deal after getting off a long flight. Staff had someone fix it on day 2
