Pros:

La ubicación, es la cuarta vez que me hospedó en ese hotel.

Cons:

Las toallas están muy viejas y deshilachadas. La puerta de acceso a la habitación está despegada del marco y entraba todo el frío en la noche y le falta mantenimiento con la cerradura en malas condiciones

Agradable
Pros:

Ubicación, confort aunque podría estar mejor.

Cons:

Podría mejorar con proporcionar más servicios de aseo personal, en concreto crema, secadora de pelo, kleenex.

La habitación que me asignaron (una persona) demasiado chica. supongo que cuentan con habitaciones más grandes por si deseo volver a hospedarme.

Good basic accommodation. Good location to bus station and Centro Historico.
Pros:

Good basic accommodation. Room was basic, but clean. No air conditioning, which we knew when we booked, but room was comfortable with ceiling fan and cool Oaxaca nights.

Cons:

No suggestions. Was as expected.

Stay for being in THE best location in Oaxaca Centro ... hotel is pretty w/ so-so rooms.
Pros:

Best Location In Centro * Close to where you want to be in Centro * quiet street without much traffic * and a pretty part of the street. The main areas in the hotel are very attractive * Felt completely safe * Super nice staff * Super comfy beds * Great restaurant almost within the hotel at the front .. with great breakfasts and super nice owner *

Cons:

The rooms are bare bones and a ltoo basic to enjoy. My room had a low ceiling which made it feel small. With just a few more decorations it would improve greatly. Pretty bedspreads for instance are nylon .. why not cotton? My room was at the back of an alcove filled with plants, which was nice. Some rooms on the lower level open to the parking lot .. I would really avoid those. Didn't see the upstairs rooms.

No volveremos.
Pros:

La ubicación es perfecta, la entrada del edificio es muy bonita y nos prestaron un secador de pelo cuando lo pedimos.

Cons:

La entrada de la habitación daba hacia el estacionamiento. Todos los días a las 7 a.m. salía gente y encendía los coches. A veces los dejaban varios minutos con el motor encendido. Como resultado, no solo nos despertaba el ruido, sino que la habitación se llenaba de olor a gases de escape. Más, si invirtieran el 10 % del monto que pagamos por las 3 noches, alcanzaría para comprar una buena regadera.
