Pros:

L'ambiance générale etait très sympathique, chaque jour sont proposées des activités notamment sur la terrasse
Terrasse en rooftop qui propose une belle vue sur les montagnes, le barman est très sympa, la cuisine propose également de bons plats et cocktails
La literie est très confortable et nous avons apprécié avoir une chambre privée

Cons:

La piscine était malheureusement hors service, nous n'avons donc pas pu en profiter
Le ventilateur au plafond de la chambre est extrêmement bruyant, on ne voit pas la différence entre la vitesse 1 et 5....

Pros:

Hostel muito bonito e super bem localizado, oferece atividades para os hóspedes todos os dias. Equipe solícita para dar dicas e fornecer informações em relação à cidade.

Cons:

A cozinha para preparar as refeições era muito pequena e não havia um lugar para sentar para comer. O wi- fi falhava algumas vezes, principalmente, nos quartos e cozinha.

Good place to base yourself while you explore Oaxaca
Pros:

Staff on reception were very professional. My laundry was returned to me promptly. Paid breakfast on the roof top terrace was nicely done. Loved the spacious building and entrance hall. The roof top terrace was lovely with friendly staff and music. There was a good choice of beer and lager in the fridge. I didn't use the small pool but it was well used by others.

Cons:

Apart from the space under your bed to put your case or backpack in there was nowhere to put your stuff except on your bed. There is little floorspace. The shared shower room and toilet was very small. My dorm room was right next to the roof terrace and the music and partying goes on to midnight so I could see why some people asked to be moved. However its not a problem if you like to party. Perhaps there are other more spacious rooms in the building that are quieter.

Pros:

Es ist ein supertolles Hostel, ich habe mich sehr wohlgefühlt. Ich bin mit einer Freundin gereist, aber hätte mich als Alleinreisende auch sehr gut aufgehoben gefühlt.
Das Staff war so unterstützend, besonders Luis, hat mich bei einigen Anliegen und Fragen (ich brauchte medizinische Unterstützung) sehr unterstützt.
Die 8er-Zimmer könnten etwas mehr Raum fürs Gepäck haben.
Ich würde definitiv wieder zurückkommen.

Cons:

Alles super :)
