Stay in an Art Villa!
Pros:

A truly lovely stay. It feels like being a guest in a private art villa — the architecture, interior design, and art collection are simply extraordinary. Breakfast is a delight, prepared by a private chef in an open kitchen that flows seamlessly into the living and dining space. The location is ideal: central yet quietly removed from the bustle. Our favorite place we stayed in Oaxaca. Do not hesitate to book.

Cons:

Phenomenal, it’s like a dream
Pros:

Awesome location, it’s really quiet. Surrounded by good food options. The design of the place is spectacular and the staff is sweet. Breakfast is SO GOOD

Cons:

The only thing to note is that breakfast starts pretty late so if you have a day trip(s) then you will miss it.

Sublime Stay!
Pros:

What did I like...ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING!!! Staff are incredibly attentive, friendly and gracious! Once you step foot into Casa Carmen, you enter a light filled art gallery; so eclectic, so fun and so stunning! Then you walk into your room: impeccably clean, tasteful and so very comfortable and again with the details in amenities; Mexican glassware and bedding, Oaxacan candle decor and even a whole line of Molton Brown bathroom goodies! Rooftop is gorgeous and the breakfast options were outstanding!

Cons:

Upon arrival, there is no sign to indicate you are at Casa Carmen; but you figure it out eventually.

Cold and dark room
Pros:

The art, the staff, and the rooftop bar.

Cons:

The booking.com room desciption wrongly states it is a delux suite which consists of 1 living room, 1 seperate bedroom and 1 bathroom, BUT there is no seperate living room.
Our room was cold and dark. There is aircon but no heating.
Breakfast was in the main area and we had to wear jumpers and jackets as there is no heating and cold air comes through the building.
The bedside table was broken.
The bathroom light flickered on and off.
I reported these faults on day one, but the maintenance guy came in and looked but the problems persisted..

GORGEOUS stay in Oaxaca
Pros:

This was one of the best places l've ever stayed in my life. The architecture and design is top notch and absolutely breathtaking. The lobby is beyond stunning and curated with the most amazing art pieces. Our room was beautiful and spacious - it had coffee, a kettle, an outdoor atrium that lit up, tons of storage space & massive bathroom & incredibly comfortable bed. The staff were so lovely and accommodating. Every morning the homemade breakfast you could order off of their menu was a treat as well and absolutely delicious. It was a 100/10 accommodation and I will always stay here when I visit beautiful Oaxaca. The location was also excellent & everything was walkable. PLEASE stay here!

Cons:

Nothing - it was perfect.

Exceptional
Pros:

Everyone was great! The service was 10/10.

Cons:

I will say the only complaint would be the hot water. After a certain time the hot water seemed to be turned off.

I would recommend this to all my family and friends and I will be back!
Pros:

Everything was exactly or better than the pictures seem. The rooms were incredibly clean all the time.
We specially loved taking breakfast on the rooftop!
The artwork spread though out the property was a pleasure to stare at. The breakfasts were also incredible. Everyday we tried something different and were never disappointed

Cons:

Nothing, everything was incredible.
