Peaceful oasis in the middle of Oaxaca
Pros:

We loved our 9-night stay! The hotel has a very calm and friendly atmosphere, it feels like a peaceful oasis. Staff is very friendly and rooms are spotless. We liked our room a lot and I was happy with the breakfast provided: coffee, cornflakes and a different type of sweet bread every morning - a typical Mexican early morning meal. Location is excellent, you can explore all of Oaxaca on foot from there. Make sure to check out the park 1 block north of the hotel. Lots of street vendors in the evening and just a great hang out.

An excellent vacation in an excellent place.
Pros:

I liked the service we received, the security of the place, and the beautiful spaces they have; every corner makes for a stunning photo backdrop. They have beautiful gardens.

Cons:

What I didn't like—or rather, a suggestion I have—is that the breakfast shouldn't just be coffee and bread; it should be more complete.

Super leckeres einfaches Frühstück mit süssem Brot, Kaffee und Cornflakes. Mega freundliches und hilfsbereites Personal. Wunderschöner und gepflegter Innenhof der zum Verweilen einlädt, wären gerne noch länger geblieben.

I love the concept of the hotel and appreciate all they do to be ecofriendly
Pros:

I love that it is woman owned and an eco hotel. The staff was so helpful and friendly. It was nice that we could borrow umbrellas, hats and bags for an outing.

Cons:

The kitchen used to serve breakfast was right outside our room so there was a bit of noise in the mornings. Although it was nice to use the patio right out front, it would have been nice to be in a room away from reception and the main walk through area. I could have requested a change but we were already settled into our room.

Good Location, OK Rooms
Pros:

The property itself/courtyard is beautiful. My room was large and had a desk which I appreciated. Great location within walking distance to everything right downtown. The gate was secure.

Cons:

The room quality was not as nice or comfortable as I thought it would be from the photos, especially given the price.
