Great hostel experience! Clean and inviting with lots of outdoor space, friendly and attentive staff, active group chat with lots of great events and social opportunities both at the hostel and around town. A good pick for solo travelers and couples, especially those looking for a social vibe without being too big or overwhelming. Quiet hours were respected, so going to bed early was definitely possible.

I had a lovely stay here! The rooms and facilities were all so clean and cleaned by the amazing staff throughout the day, everyday! The rooms were very comfortable and the beds comfortable enough. The price for this stay was also a big positive! The location was great too! 3 minute walk to the zocalo! Would highly recommend this place for any and all travellers!

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!!
