The staff and guests were so friendly. Some stayed some weeks/month to work or make spanish courses. Its the kind of hostel i like. More familystyle not so anonymous. If you are a bad sleeper maybe be aware. There is a karaokebar at the other side of the street. I didnt mind. It gave some Mexicofeeling to me. The breakfast is included with 2 slice of toast, egg!, fruits and coffee. Nice to save money. Greetings again to everybody, loved my stay there!!! <3

The hostel is one of the most immaculate facilities we have stayed in. It is a brilliant location, very close to town. The views from the roof top to the mountains, and over the city are amazing. All of the staff were friendly and helpful in every aspect of our stay.

Very clean and quiet hostel. Modern bathrooms. Hot shower with proper pressure. Towel and soap included. Comfy beds. Lockers. Equipped kitchen. Coffee and water available. Cosy little terrace. Quiet street. 25 mins walk from city centre. Close to Central bus station and the main local market de Abasto (much better than the famous markets in the centre). The owner is very kind and helpful. Clothes washing is also allowed. 6 bed dorm has kitchen and bathroom just for that dorm! 4 bed dorm is very quiet.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    This hostel is one of my favourite hostels I’ve stayed at. Such a social vibe with plenty of opportunities to meet new people and explore Oaxaca. It felt super safe and always very clean and the volunteers are the kindest humans ever!!
