Rooms are really big and hostel has cool terrace….
However even though cheap I wouldn’t stay there again - WIFI is terrible an as a backpacker WIFI is crucial for booking activities, emails, etc.
The location is good and it is good value for money. I will say that there is little, to no sound isolation in the room and because it is a concrete building with big open spaces it gets really loud. Earplugs is a must for light sleepers.
Excellent location right in the city centre; spacious rooms with ample storage space; friendly staff - especially the chap in the mornings :) clean, atmospheric and with a great roof top terrace. Definitely a place to return to!
Staff are very friendly and helpful! The hostel is very quiet compared to the other hostels, clean and good for the money spent! I’d you want to party with friends, this is not a hotel for you as party and alcoholic drinks are not allowed!
This Hostal is very quiet! It’s clean and good for your money. Staff are very helpful. There are 24 hours front desk personnel so you feel safe! It will be great if the Hostal allow a bit drinking on the site. I think this will bring more customers to the Hostal!
The location is really good, very central. Huge hostel, it has so many floors and different spaces. Lovely rooftop. You have to climb lots of flights of stairs to reach the kitchen but it has good facilities. NO LAUNDRY SERVICE despite saying it has, but the launderette is around the corner and very cheap. The hostel is really clean and we appreciated that.

Cheap stay but comfort not so high
The stay was cheap and the room and areas where large and clean.
However comfort overall was low. Beds were hard as a brick and there are a lot of noise from traffic during the day and in the mornings, which not even ear plugs can block out (which might be a general thing in Oaxaca centro), so just be aware.
This hostel is very centrally located, yet it was quiet enough for me to sleep well at night. It's very clean and the bed is comfortable. I love that they provide drinking water!! The only thing I would change is to make sure residents understand which bathrooms have hot water and which ones don't (some have solar heated water that can be quite chilly). Oh, and put thicker curtains on the window to keep out the light from the hallway.
Loved the coffee and water 24hrs. Loved my room and the upstairs deck. Staff was very nice. Location was awesome. Only negative was the kitchen wasn't sufficient for number of rooms and the refrigerator was too warm and my food spoiled. They think they are saving money. Eat in the street, it's wonderful, cheaper and you can find some great cheap restaurants.
I lasted one night of my 6 night booking. This place is SPARTAN. No ceiling or other fan, no air of any kind in the entire building. No chair, bedside table or bedside lamp, just a bare bulb on the ceiling. Bed was extremely uncomfortable. I truly felt like I I was sleeping in a prison cell. The entire property smelled of sewer gas. WiFi was unusable it was so slow.
I’m not a stranger to hostels and roughing it a bit but this was comically bad. Do not stay here.
