bien
Cons:

Que no se podían manchar las toallas BLANCAS ( las únicas que tenían) de nada. Nos cobraron 100 pesos por una toalla que se manchó , se usó después de lavarse la cara y se manchó de tierra que quedó o suciedad en la cara después de hacer tours todo el día. Inevitable que no se manchen. O deberían poner desechables toallitas o algo

La ubicacion perfecta todo es caminando, el personal es muy amable siempre dispuesto a ayudar

Al estar en el centro y no tener instalaciones anti ruido, es extremadamente ruidoso, se escucha cualquier cosa en la calle, la musica de los bares, los coches

La tv no funciono no te puedes conectar o hacer cast

The location was great and room was clean. The front desk lady makes the stay very unpleasant and not worth the stay.
Pros:

The room was comfortable and in a good area.

Cons:

The lady in the front was very rude and unprofessional. The tall lady that worked the morning shift was very unpleasant. I was there early hoping to drop off my luggage. She didn’t great me and seemed very annoyed. I decided to then leave with my luggage since we had other activities planned. When I finally returned at the check in time. Again, she seemed annoyed and didn’t even show us to our room. Just told us it was on the second floor, she didn’t offer any assistance with our luggage either. She never went over their regulations or offered the WiFi password. At check out time she had me waiting in the lobby until they verified that the room was “okay.” I travel to Oaxaca often and always stay by the historical center and I have never received service like hers. Over all she made the stay very unpleasant. Working in hospitality I would imagine she’d have a different attitude. I will definitely not come back to this hotel.

Artsy and good location
Pros:

The position is crazy good - you can reach everything by walking. The room was also very spacious, with a balcony and air conditioning and fans available. Really loved the artwork all around.

Cons:

Would have loved a mini-fridge to keep my water cool. Sockets were a bit outdated, and slow charging (I didn't encounter this in any hotel room in Mexico).

Ein Stück zu Hause auf Reisen.
Pros:

Die Unterkunft war sehr freundlich und gemütlich. Leider war die Dachterassen zum Zeitpunkt unseres Besuches geschlossen. Man sollte wissen, dass die Betten sehr hart sind.

Cons:

Die Atmosphäre ist sehr gemütlich und die Angestellten stets hilfreich.
