Terrific little boho b&b in a great neighborhood. Conveniently walkable to the Zócalo and restaurants in El Centro. There are several shared dormitories as well as very comfortable single rooms with private bath. Some of the private rooms have terraces. Staff is super friendly and dedicated to their guests having a pleasant stay. Breakfast is included. I would stay here again in a heartbeat.

Cool looking hostel but a bit boring for my likes.
The hostel looks really cool. Nice breakfast included.
Alejandra at the reception is very friendly and professional. she made me feel very welcome.
The bar is cool and has potential but the girl that works there is very quiet, never seen her smile or be in anyway enthusiastic. not sure hostel/bar work is for her. after one beer I felt sooo bored and depressed. so I never went back to the bar and preferred to drink outside in town instead for the rest of my stay.

Dio de Muertes in Oaxaca
Delightful, quirky accommodation in an interesting area within easy walking distance of the centre. We loved Oaxaca and enjoyed our stay for the Dio de Muertes festivities. Our rooms were on the ground floor of the hostel and opened onto the garden. The rooms were lovely, but on the small side for two people sharing - not at all like the one in the photo. They need to provide bedside lamps.

El trato de los chicos de la recepción fue muy cálido. La habitación estaba impecable, las camas cómodas y la decoración, muy agradable. Mis hijos y yo dormimos muy bien. El hostal se encuentra a unos 10-12 minutos a pie del zócalo de Oaxaca. Lo único que no me encantó, fue que está ubicado en una zona que es solitaria por la noche.

The 4 bed female dorm is really nice, but the 8 bed dorm is just too crowded without any space for luggage. The common courtyard and breakfast are really nice

Super friendly staff and lovely common space. Breakfast was super great and prepared on the spot so it was hot when served. And they served something different for the 4 nights I was there. There's a bar on the second level, and a great view of the city at the rooftop.

J'ai beaucoup apprécié l'accueil du personnel et l'ambiance convivale de l'auberge (le souriant Mario, le rire contagieux et les margaritas aux mezcal de André!). Les aires communes sont propices aux échanges et aux rencontres avec d'autres voyages. Très bel endroit!

Friendly staff only problem was breakfast is at 8:30 am and we were attending spanish school short walk away but began at 9am so we could wait for it but fortunately we able to make something ourselves in the common kitchen. Late breakfast maybe a hostel thing but I have never stay in hotel that breakfast so late.

Hostel con excelente servicio y ubicación
Desde la llegada hasta el final las atenciones fueron muy buenas, te ayudan a ubicar lugares de interés, las habitaciones son limpias y confortables, te dan dos horas gratis para préstamo y de bicis y $10 pesos por hora adicional, lo único malo es que el wifi no tenía un buen alcance en la recámara en la que estuvimos.

Excellente auberge
Excellent établissement avec une réelle ambiance d'auberge de jeunesse pour rencontrer des voyageurs. Un petit déjeuner complet est servi chaque matin. Les lieux sont propres et confortables. Le seul défaut reste l'emplacement assez loin du centre de la ville
