Amazingg!
Pros:

The best hotel I have ever stayed at in my life! I really wanted to leave a great review and a long comment because this place deserves it.

Everything is exceptionally clean. I was a little concerned about the “dry toilet” concept at first, but I had absolutely no issues with it. Everything here has a purpose and a reason behind it. All the rooms are uniquely designed and follow a beautiful eco-friendly concept. The aesthetic is stunning, cozy, and thoughtfully curated.

I loved the abundance of plants throughout the property. Guests can even make tea using herbs directly from the garden, which is such a lovely touch. The shared kitchen is another huge plus: everything is modern, well-organized, high-quality, and spotlessly clean. There is complimentary coffee available, and it is absolutely delicious! It is sold at the coffee shop attached to the hotel, and I highly recommend trying it.

I was also impressed by the sustainability efforts. All waste is carefully sorted and recycled, which is incredible to see.

The location is excellent. I was able to do everything on foot. There are wonderful cafés and restaurants nearby, a local market where you can enjoy authentic street food (which I personally preferred to the larger market in the city center), convenience stores, and everything you might need within a 10–15 minute walk. The area felt very safe. I often walked around alone, including returning at around 11 p.m., and I saw many other women comfortably walking or using their phones in the streets.

The room was quiet and dark, allowing me to get some of the best sleep of my trip. There is also a beautiful and cozy rooftop with yoga mats, hammocks, chairs, and plenty of space to relax. It was the perfect place to read a book and enjoy a coffee. The entire property feels welcoming and peaceful.

Finally, the reception and staff were outstanding. Everyone was kind, helpful, and always willing to assist.

Loved My Stay!
Pros:

I am obsessed with this hotel. The room was so cute! I wanted to extend my stay but it was booked, so I tried 2 other places in Oaxaca, but I loved Niyana so much they could not compare. The room was very nice and comfortable, the staff welcoming, the property highly secure. It was walkable to the heart of downtown in about 10 minutes, with plenty of other stuff around. I felt fine walking, even alone at night. Staff were very nice. Wi-fi was good.

Cons:

Be advised there is a "dry toilet" / eco toilet (non flushing, compost-type toilet). I did not realize this before I got to the hotel. While it was ok for me, it may be off-putting for some.

Great hotel–beautiful property and kind staff!
Pros:

Such a wonderful hotel! The property is absolutely beautiful and they provide a bunch of little things that make the property feel like home (coffee, drinking water, yoga mats, and more!) The staff are amazing, they are very kind and provided awesome recommendations. They also set up a taxi for early in the morning that was seamless!

The bathroom was nice! Hot water, nice shower. The compostable toilet was great! It was easy to use and there was no odor. Plus, it felt good to offset my footprint as a tourist!

Cons:

Nothing–it was great!

Bonito, seguro y buena atención
Pros:

El trato de las personas que trabajan en Niyana, sus recomendaciones, etc.
Está bien ubicado, es una zona segura por lo que permite ir al centro caminando a cualquier hora.

Nos llamó la atención que fuera una habitación con baño seco, no nos habíamos informado sobre ese tema. Nos sorprendió pero durante la estancia nos acostumbramos, no fue un problema. De hecho nos sirvió para concienciarnos más sobre el uso del agua.

Pros:

Friendly staff, always reachable by WhatsApp. Nice design.

Cons:

The sustainability of the hotel is nice, but this gets in the way of comfort. We wouldn't recommend this to people that just want to relax and enjoy their vacation. There is no AC, and the dry toilets (while cool to save water) are not that nice if you get some bad food like we did.. The water pressure in the shower also wasn't great.
