Unpleasant. Dirty. Run down. Our worst experience in all of Mexico.
Pros:

Pros-
• Central location for exploring the area
• In an historic building

Cons:

Cons-
• The room felt dirty and outdated
• They had extremely poor wi-fi-even though our room was on the ground floor, right next to the router
• No English was spoken at reception - NONE!
• They covered their drains with plastic covers (having lived in Asia-we know these are to stop cockroaches coming up the drains) but we were told they were to stop the smells from the drains! There were cockroaches so we left the bathroom lights on all night, closed the door and put a towel across the bottom to stop them getting into the bedroom while we slept. Because of this, we stayed out late to reduce our time in the room!
• The bathroom was so small, especially the separate toilet area and felt unclean-I always wore flip flops in these areas
• There was NO acknowledgement of you as a guest (with greetings) once you had checked in
• The staff were disinterested and unprofessional
• The towels were old, no longer white and scratchy
• The entire hotel is grimy, outdated and unloved
• There is rooftop area which is depressing as nobody uses it and it appears to have a become a dumping ground
• Our room was on the ground floor, facing the street, so it could be loud at times with people passing by or lingering near the hotel. Even in the hotel you could hear everything around and the people in the other rooms.

Hotel con encanto en Oaxaca
Pros:

La ubicación es excelente. Además tiene una terraza con café de cortesía que nos ofrecieron.
La cama es cómoda y la tele muy chula. El hotel es muy bonito con mucho encanto.

El primer rayo de sol es en Casa de los frailes
Pros:

La ubicación

Cons:

La habitación estaba llena de mosquitos. Tenía unas “cortinas” por las que, a las 6:30am, te atravesaba un rayo como si fuese una aparición de la virgen María (muy presente en la habitación). Adjunto fotos.

Un lloc fantàstic per visitar còmodament i gaudir d’Oaxaca.
Pros:

La ubicació és perfecte. Està aprop del centre en una zona molt tranquil·la. La relació qualitat-preu és excel·lent. A cinc minuts a peu del centre històric i de tots els restaurants.

Cons:

Com a esmorzar només ofereixen un cafè de cortesia. No tenen caixa forta a l’habitació.

Lovely hotel with a special religious charme very close to the city center
Pros:

The hotel is in a lovely location, very close to the city centre. The room and the beds were very comfortable, and we really liked the cosy seating areas and the hotel’s lovely terrace, where you can have a coffee or tea in the morning, have a chat or check your emails.

Bonne localisation
Pros:

La principale qualité est sa localisation. Le personnel est également très sympathique. Possibilité de réserver un taxi (même en urgence).

Cons:

Plusieurs chambres sans fenêtres. Établissement un peu vétuste notamment la salle de bain. Rapport qualité-prix à revoir.

Great location, good staff, reasonable price.
Pros:

You cannot beat the location or the quirkiness. It is one block from Santo Domingo. I could walk most places. There is an active nightlife all around. The property has lots of charm. I first had a room with a window that looked out on an air shaft and when a room in the back of the hotel became available I was able to change. Showers were great. The staff at the desk were kind, lovely and very helpful.

Cons:

It needs a little more maintenance attention. Low water pressure in the sinks and toilets. The wonderful window I had was very hard to open. Some walls show water leakage from some place.

Pros:

Hotel carino e molto ben posizionato nel centro storico, Il servizio lascia a desiderare in quanto alla reception ci sono dei ragazzi che non sembrano avere una formazione vera e propria e nella stanza, dopo la pulizia, ho trovato il pigiama collocato sulla valigia (uno dei luoghi meno igenici...). Il giudizio complessivo tuttavia resta positivo per un hotel 3 stelle.

Cons:

Makes your Oaxaca experience perfect.
Pros:

The hotel has everything you expect when traveling for pleasure: perfect location, cozy atmosphere, nice and attentive staff, clean and comfortable room, good bathroom and shower. What shines however is how nice is the staff at the reception. I had the opportunity to interact with three persons, all of them always trying to be useful to my demands. Thank you guys, I left the property fully satisfied.

Cons:

Wifi in the room works perfectly but not as much at the reception, when someone always need to check the reservation, things like that. It was probably something temporary and wont never hurt the great experience I had at the hotel.
