Perfect place to stay in Oaxaca 5 star all the way
Pros:

The asthetic was beautiful and authentic. The staff were amazing! They were so helpful in advising us places to visit and eat. They were extremely trustworthy as my partner dropped cash from his pocket at breakfast & they called us to let us know and gave it to us when we arrived back. The food was delicious at breakfast & the various sweet bread they have around the property and coffee at any hour in the lobby was an extra treat. Bed was comfortable and the rain shower was great. I would recommend this hotel 100%

Cons:

Everything was great nothing negative!

Beautiful oasis in the heart of Oaxaca
Pros:

Gorgeous property, spacious room, speakeasy bar, amazing ambience and convenient location right in the heart of the city.

Cons:

The water from the shower would leak onto the floor outside the shower which made the floor slippery. You could also hear loud. music from neighbouring properties on the weekend which made it tricky to sleep (we were informed of this a few weeks prior to our stay) however not an issue if you plan to stay out late yourself.

Joia charmosa em Oaxaca
Pros:

De café da manhã estrelado à equipe extremamente atenciosa e amável, este hotel foi um local que nos fez sentir tão bem que não queríamos ir embora. O hotel é lindíssimo, cheio de mimos para seus hóspedes, o quarto é silencioso, charmoso e equipado. O café da manhã é indescritível de bom e a equipe do hotel é de uma dedicação ímpar (um abraço especial para o Gabriel e Jonathan)!!! Sem contar a localização, que fizemos absolutamente tudo caminhando. Sem dúvida inesquecível.

Nuestro nuevo hotel favorito en Oaxaca
Pros:

El hotel es precioso y esta lleno de detalles por todos lados, el servicio es sobressliente y hay cortesías como café y snacks todo el dia. Disfrutamos mucho nuestra estancia

Cons:

Que existan habitaciones "noisy" lo bueno es que llegando nos explicaron en recepción que habíamos reservado una habitación con mucho ruido porque esta atrás de un bar... sin embargo gracias a eso pudimos hacer cambio de habitación y todo fue perfecto.

Très bel hôtel
Pros:

L’ambiance du lieu, le confort du lit, l’excellent petit déjeuner, le personnel adorable

Cons:

Aucun lit d’appoint n’était prévu pour notre enfant (pas insurmontable, car le lit était très grand, mais il n’était pas évident pour nous que nous dormirions tous dans le même lit !)
