Guest Reviews

• Yasuko (8/5): - 到着して最初に予約の確認が取れずスタッフの方とコミニケーション出来ずかなり困惑しましたが　後はとても良かったです。 設備はドライアーが使えなかったり、テレビリモコンがありませんでしたが他の物を用意してくれました。治安も良く良いところです。
• Mark (6/5): - Could use bathroom renovations.
• Adriana (6/5): Buena ubicación, requiere de mantenimiento - La ubicación del hotel es inmejorable, está a unos pasos de la Iglesia de Santo Domingo, con muy buenas opciones de restaurantes y comidas, el lugar es tranquilo y seguro. Hay algunos detalles, poco mantenimiento a las instalaciones, no fue suficiente el agua caliente, y el ruido del ventilador es agotador. Las sillas de descanso que estan en los pasillos no se pueden usar por que están llenas de sábanas o toallas.
• Yuliana (10/5): - Excelente servicio, muy amables todo muy limpio. La ubicacion esta super bien cerca de muchas cosas.
• Marisol (8/5): Arreglen el agua caliente y todo de 10! - El Hotel está muy bien, salvo las regaderas; aconsejo remodelarlas. Y lo único fatal fue que no hay agua caliente, ya había leído en comentarios esto pero mi lógica fue que después de meses ya lo habrían arreglado y pues: no! Rentamos otra habitación para mis hijas, nos quedaron enfrente del lado izq y resulta que mi esposo y yo teníamos que irnos a bañar a su habitación porque ahí salía caliente el agua y eso era incomodo. Ó sea; el lado del hotel izquierdo sí había agua caliente y del lado derecho las habitaciones no (según nuestros cálculos ya que otros huéspedes se molestaron por lo mismo). Está bien ubicado sí lo recomendaría; claro! una vez que inviertan en otro boiler para ese lado del hotel.
• Mariana Rivas (4/5): - No nos dieron la habitación por la que se pagó.
• Claudia (8/5): - La cercanía al centro
• Lizeth (10/5): - Me gustó bastante, muy buena atención
• Erendira (6/5): - Excelente ubicación
• Raúl (6/5): - Está en excelente ubicación, pero le falta muchísimo mantenimiento. La puerta no tiene cerradura de seguridad. La ducha perdió la jabonera, de manera que no hay donde colocar el jabón y el shampoo mientras se baña uno. La regadera es de teléfono, pero no tiene donde sujetarse, cuelga y con cualquier descuido empapa el piso del baño. No hay luz de lectura sobre la cama. Las sábanas y sillas están desgastadas. No hay ganchos para colgar ropa...
• Pedro (8/5): - El lugar es bonito y el personal es amable, aunque las chicas de la limpieza hablan bastante alto a primera hora, si uno tiene intención de dormir algo más.
• Heriberto (10/5): - Excelente!
• Heriberto (10/5): - Excelente hotel
• Estoy Invirtiendo (10/5): - Excelente lugar para pasarla increíble
• Francisco (8/5): - Fir the price is a good place, and everybody was very nice
• Diana Victoria (8/5): - Buen lugar! Centrico
• Hugo (2/5): - No A/C
• Rafael (8/5): - Deben capacitar al personal,
• Edgar (8/5): - I enjoyed the hotel very much, I also love the complementary water that we were provided daily plus how clean the hotel was. The only shortcoming for me would be having perhaps a microwave in the lobby, a better wifi service. The staff is super nice
• TEO (6/5): - buena atención y bien ubicado
• LILIANA HERRERA (10/5): - Cerca de la iglesia de Santo Domingo de bares y restaurantes
• Sersh (4/5): - Habitación sucia, el ventilador en el techo hace mucho ruido y no proporciona el aire requiere. La última noche se descompuso la bomba del agua
• Deborah J (6/5): - It was clean. Older with sinks that sometimes gave hot water, sometimes not. Showers always have hot. Rooms dark. If you don’t speak Spanish you may have trouble communicating with the staff. Staff all friendly, willing to help & accommodating. Central location. Good pricing.
• Nitzarindani (10/5): - Muy cerca del centro de Oaxaca. Bien ubicado.
• Martìn (6/5): - La ubicación en el centro de la ciudad.
• Verified traveler (6/5): - Fue lo que encontramos después de una reservación en un hotel con una ubicación falsa en hoteles.com. Llegamos a la ubicación que hoteles.com nos marcaba de una reservación y el hotel no existía en dicho lugar. Al final este hotel nos salvó para pasar la noche pero pues nada especial, fué solo eso, la opción que nos quedó
• Mauricio (6/5): - Hotel was close to the Zocalo, and lot of places for dinner around.
• Hiromi (4/5): - Totally couldn’t use wifi in the room
• Pilar (6/5): - Salvo que la puerta del baño no se podía abrir bien y tenía partes con humedad y algunas piezas rotas, todo lo demás bien.
• Corinne (2/5): - Les chambres sont simples mais très correct. L hotel est très bien placé dans le centre. Pas de parking surveillé mais des places juste devant l hotel dans la rue.
• Marcos (4/5): Si solo quieres un lugar para dormir. - La solicitud fue cama king y no sucedio, no hay agua caliente, los monomandos de la regadera incompletos, camas duras, canales de tv malos, humedad en las predes.
• Marcia (10/5): - The location is amazing, most hot spots are within walking distance. The hotel and rooms are modest but clean and in good condition.
• HIRAM GUILLERMO (8/5): - Buen hotel. Servicio buenísimo. Pero.... El internet malo... No llegaba
• Verified traveler (4/5): - El hotel tiene muy buena ubicación, pero la verdad está en malas condiciones, las cortinas son transparentes, hay un tragaluz llego en cucarachas, las sabanas están amarillas, toallas con manchas, creo falta mantenimiento.
• Michel (10/5): - Las habitaciones agradables y cómodas
• A Margarita (10/5): - El inmueble esta muy bien solo que alguien me timó pidiéndome una transacción cómo depósito haciéndose pasar por personal del hotel su nombre es REGINA VELASCO Y LA EX1011 según es una empresa hotelera. FAVOR DE TENER MUCHO CUIDADO !!!
• billcat99 (2/5): QUESTIONABLE ADMINISTRATIVE PRACTICES. - Trying to book a company trip for Dia de los Muertos and need several rooms. This hotel needs to do better to put patrons at ease. Was not able to book online, possibly due to the dates but when we finally got someone on the phone they kept changing the required deposits. After several messages and calls back and forth we were finally told we could use a credit to secure the reservation but at a higher rate which we assumed was to cover their credit card fees, totally understandable. But then all of a sudden they told us they wanted bank transfer ONLY and the funds are to be deposited to a different account than what is listed on their website. What made it even more sketchy is they told us upfront they would not be giving us a confirmation of our reservation. They keep changing the rules, are not clearly communicating or sending me an email with a total quote from company email and only willing to communicate via Whats APP. Something doesn't feel right about this.
• angela (8/5): - Very convenient location with parking in front.
• Jorge Javier (8/5): - Me gusta sin embargo podría estar las Intalaciones mejor
• Ricardo (10/5): - Muy buena actitud del personal. En todo momento responden a una solicitud. Por otro lado la ubicación es muy buena, cerca de la iglesia de Santo Domingo , donde está el corazón de la vida nocturna.
• Arturo (10/5): Tiene las 3 B - El hotel esta bien ubicado, las habitaciones son mimpias y de espacio regular el mobiliario de lob y y recepcion se ven algo maltratafos y viejos y podria mejorar ya que tienen mucho potencial la atencion fue muy cordial.
• JUAN CARLOS CASTAÑON (6/5): - La reservación incluía los desayunos y en el hotel fui informado que no me podían proporcionar el servicio
• Avelino (8/5): - THe hotel is simple and basic, but the location is incredible. You are in the middle of everything. Is totally worth it.
• CARMEN (2/5): - No tiene estacionamiento y el sistem dice desayuno gratis y no es verdad
• Marcia Silvina (4/5): No lo recomiendo - No respetaron el desayuno incluido, el hotel le falta mantenimiento y aparte te cobran el 6 por ciento adicional si pagas con tarjeta
• Anani (2/5): - muy mal sucias las habitaciones las camas super incómodas mala atención del personal pesimo
• maria elisa (4/5): - El hotel esta viejo y descuidado, se ve mucho mejor en las fotos
• Jose (6/5): Oaxacalli May 2022 - La comodidad del colchón era buena, las instalaciones en gral del hotel les urge una arreglada, para mi gusto caro para lo que es y lo que ofrece, lo use solo por ser pet friendly pero por 100mxn más te puedes encontrar mejores, los cuales se pagan solos porque te cobran el 6% si pagas con tarjeta. No tienen convenio con estacionamientos, usas la calle o pagas.
• Gerardo (2/5): - The design property is nice but needs a lot repairs everything is dusty and very noise windows doesn't close properly.
• Philip D (6/5): - An “okay” property: not fancy but clean; water seemed to be turned off (at least inside my room), during nighttime, but, was back on in the morning. Felt safe, mostly quiet. Reasonable value for the price.
• Alberto (6/5): Agradable - Es un lugar con poca iluminación, y el desayuno que ofrece es austero, esta limpio y el personal es agradable.
• Verified traveler (2/5): Las fotos no corresponden a la realidad. - No me respetaron la reservación. El hotel es viejo, esta descuidado. FEO.
• Verified traveler (6/5): - Beautiful courtyard. Very clean, nice room.
• ernesto (4/5): Desepcionante - Las fotos muestran un lugar muy diferente! Esta sucio, sin mantenimiento, sin buen servicio y sobre todo, de muy mala calidad todo! Lo único rescatable es que esta bien ubicado.
• ALEJANDRO (8/5): muy centrico - Nos fue muy bien, es un hotel muy muy centrico, le falta mantenimiento pero para solo dormir esta muy adecuado.
• Abelito (6/5): - Buen servicio, muy bien situado para quienes nos gusta visitar el centro de la ciudad, muy tranquilo y sin ruidos el lugar, el desayuno que ofrece es el que te dan café y pan tostado eso no te lo aclaran en expedía hasta que estas ahí. En general aceptable el lugar por ubicación y precio
• Lily (6/5): - No me gustó que prometía desayuno y no hubo el servicio.
• Adriana (8/5): Excelente ubicación. - Ubicación excelente. El servicio notable. Hotel funcional con servicios básicos. Sugiero dar mantenimiento por qué en algunos aspectos se ve descuidado.
• GENNY (10/5): Excelente servicio!!! - Excelente trato de todos en el hotel, amables y siempre atentos para lo que requieras, la ubicación está perfecta, a pocas cuadras del centro para ir caminando y disfrutando, lugares para comer o beber una copa a 2 minutos caminando, limpió, cómodo y bastante tranquilo, muy recomendable! El personal siempre dándote buenas opciones de turismo en general, tienen servicio de desayuno, gratis, aunque por unos pesitos más pueden ampliar las opciones, buen sazón y opción para pasar algunos días en familia o pareja...
• Mariana (8/5): - Buena opción por el precio.
• Verified traveler (8/5): - Excelente ubicación, y atención maravillosa, las habitaciones están cómodas. Solo me gustaría que tuvieran aire acondicionado.
• Vanessa (2/5): Vanalevic - Fuimos para la fiesta de la guelaguetza y al llegar no sabían nada sobre el precio, al día siguiente pregunte y tampoco sabia nada, pregunte por el desayuno que decía estaba incluido y no sabían nada, tuvimos que gastar en desayunos fuera del hotel , eramos 4 personas y solo tenia 2 toallas, el internet nunca sirvió, la televisión tampoco sirvió, no te ayudan en nada,hotel descuidado,viejo, y al final nos cobraron mucho mas de lo que decía la aplicación de hoteles.com y resulto que el desayuno si iba incluido pero el resto del personal no sabia. De vdd que ese hotel es lo peor que me ha tocado vivir. Para nada lo recomiendo!
• Verified traveler (6/5): - Buena ubicación, todo queda muy cerca, no se necesita el auto para ir al centro y el trato del personal, son muy amables
• Verified traveler (2/5): - Nada, porque me cancelaron la habitación de forma arbitraria y gracias a expidia me consiguieron otra, pero el hotel que me consiguieron estaba horrible
• Oscar (8/5): - El hotel muy bien, solo no se ponían de acuerdo cuál era el desayuno que incluía el paquete que contratamos. Favor de especificar mejor en la promoción
• Verified traveler (8/5): - Son instalaciones estilo rústico y tiene estacionamiento, el hotel está muy bien ubicado a un costado de Santo Domingo
• Verified traveler (4/5): - Se esfuerzan bastante en hacer el lugar bonito, pero el precio no corresponde con las instalaciones
• Trinity (6/5): Decent Stay - Check-in was fine. They close the doors to get into the hotel around 11:30pm. It’d have been nice to know that before, rather than having to bang on the window and hope for the best. Booked two nights. Came back the second night and they’d given away our room. Luckily we didn’t leave anything in there. They put us in another room that was the same size. The second room was really moist though. Bed was firm. Sheets were clean. Check out was a breeze. The woman working there that morning was really cool and polite.
• Chelse (6/5): - The location to this hotel was great. The only problem was that the WiFi did not work and that I had my lipstick stolen from my room. So I purposely left my lipstick out because i was going to be coming back to my room with an hour or two. When I came back to change and touch up my make up .the room was cleaned and my lipstick was gone. SO DO NOT LEAVE YOU VALUABLE OUT WHERE IT CAN BE SEEN.
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Nos gusta hospedarnos en este hotel porque está céntrico y a precio accesible.
• Nathaniel (8/5): Good hot water/ good location - Last minute New Years Eve weekend trip so this was our only option. Good WiFi and plenty of hot water. But room was dark and somehow humid. We thought $80 was a bit spendy for what you get, but shame on us for not planning better. I wouldn't have felt good paying more than $30/nt if it wasn't an extremely busy holiday weekend. Friendly staff.
• José (4/5): - Su conexión wi-fi nunca funcionó, televisión en mal estado y si quieres pagar con tarjeta de crédito te cobran el 6por ciento extra
• Verified traveler (8/5): - Hotel limpio, muy cercano a restaurantes. Un detalle para los que llegan con auto, es que es imposible encontrar estacionamiento. no existe estacionamiento. El ventilador de techo ruidoso en la velocidad 1, las demás velocidades por si son ruidosas con el viento, pero no mueven aire. Agua caliente en regadera es inconstante, y en ocasiones ya no sale. Ducha fría.
• FERNANDO (8/5): Excelente hotel, con muy buena ubicación, en pleno - Excelente hotel, con muy buena ubicación, en pleno centro de la ciudad
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Un trato muy cálido y amable, recomendable por su cercanía al andador turístico.
• Nadia (10/5): Disfruta Hotel OaxacaCalli - El hotel es pequeño, funcional y bonito. Falta que en la página de Hoteles.com especifiquen que el desyuno Gratis es continental. No logramos conectarnos al WIFI. Muy bien ubicado.
• Silvia (10/5): - Excelente hotel lleno de folklor y belleza recomendado ampliamente.
• Verified traveler (8/5): - I got lucky and was able to book this hotel as a last minute reservation for Dia de Los Muertos celebrations so I didnt really have high expectations. The hotel is in the best location possible - away from the massive busyness of the area, but convenient enough to walk to everything. It has the most bare minimum amenities and look inside the room-literally, bed, a sink in the corner, a stand up shower with a curtain and a toilet. The towels looked old and dirty despite being clean. I wish there was something to protect us from the mosquitoes inside the room. We got attacked! Staff was super helpful. Thanks Oaxacalli for having us!
• GlobetroterAmericas (2/5): The Phoenix that did not make it out of the Ashes ! - I don’t expect in a "Historical Building” "the none plus ultra” the kind of Infrastructure New Hotels may have to offer, one reason why at times I like to stay in small Historical Boutique Hotels even than when these do not have multiple Star’s to show, but than again there are the kind of Experience that do end in a “BUT" This Hotel for sure has many BUT’s to answer for, most of which have very little to do with Realaste Infrastructure, however lots with Supervision and “MOST" of all with “Cleaning- and Hygiene Management”! Upton today a Resort located in Puerto Vallarta was the leader in my Reviews from behind, with all kinds of cleaning issues at hands, from dirty and unclean Bed- and Bathrooms to small and mid size Insects in the Bed, however this resort at least managed to keep the Resort Lobby and Public Areas clean, was not the case in this property. It is for that reason why I “crown it as the most undesirable of all the Hotels" that I have so far visited on a "Private or Business Trip”! There is simply NO Value Proposition at all that I could point out in this specific Hotel, never mind the rate level (it was due to the Holiday Season not low) missing hygiene and cleaning can not be wiped clean by any discount or “Statement of Sorry” whichever took place either ! To make it clear here as well, I am not willing to blame the Employees who in my view did try their very best, with limited to not supervision and most likely limited training. There is noway that Senior Management or Ownership is keeping a close eye on the operation and does not understand what is happening in front of their “eyes” On the other hand as in Puerto Vallarta, I am simply astonished by the fact/question how hotel or resort operations of any category gets passed Government Inspections. For as much as it is a Owner and/or Senior Management issue, it is also an issue that should be addressed by the proper Government Agency, in order to do “just” to the many Hospitality Operations big or small who do their best to showcase the great Hospitality that Mexico has to offer ! The Hotel Logo outside over the Entrance is the “First Indicator” the something was going to go truly wrong! If Hotel Management fails to keep the Hotel Logo (It is the Brand Reflection) of any given property shape one gets a clear first hand impression of what comes next. We arrived after a long drive of 7h in the early evening, the first problem that we encountered, no car space or area where to park the car, quite an issue in a City Center and Historical District, it would have been nice to be advised before hand as a matter of courtesy so to say. Than the first of many first impressions: The Lobby Area and the Reception area, to name it politely were both in a terrible bad state, uncleaned the way it looked for days, both lobby toilets in the most horrible condition, the seating and table arrangement were also in bad shape. Expecting a courtesy of helping with the luggage of a number of people proved to be a wrong assumption, in other words “be our guest and do it yourself” ! Once we arrived in our Rooms, we were greeted by broken lamps, hanging light bulbs on wire, a nice looking but not connected flat screen TV, dirty hand was sink and very dirty bath room and shower area. If the shower floor is marked by dark areas while other parts of the same flooring is brighter we talk about dirty floorings. In addition, even though I am not a big fan from “mass fumigations” I would strongly recommend at least once in a while room fumigations to limit smaller insects that were present in our room. I did specifically ask if high speed Internet would be available in the hotel and was given the guaranty by the Reception Manager or Leader that such is the case. Long story short it was not. The 3rd floor Breakfast area has similar issues in terms of cleaning standards, with toys all over the place, the balcony partly with a veranda while other parts did not offer such a security standard. Hair brush in the kitchen shelf, empty bottles and more, having said all this, the fridge was spotless inside and the metal tables cleaned as well. The breakfast served was ok noting to win a award with but for sure not as bad as the rest of the hotel. I like to high-light here again, I am sure that given the proper tools, training and materials to work with, the employees could actually perform by far much better. I would for no less at least start by offering a good uniform to all employees to enhance their personal profile and the Brand Image at least partly. Employees Performance are a clear and distinct reflection of Senior Hotel Management, their “Supervision skills” willingness or capability to train and educate their staff, while at the same time offer best tools to get the job done. In this very specific case we could not see any of these important "Management Skills and Abilities” being show cased. Most of the Employees (kitchen- & housekeeping staff) were very friendly and indeed dd try their best to be helpful in their limited way. I am sure that the Employees of this Hotel being better supervised, trained and properly motivated, could help to turn the place around at least in the areas of cleaning and hygiene, and yes the employees are not from any great Hospitality School and left school most likely very early to earn a living, one reason more why for no less the Hotel Owners should insist at “On the Job Training” each and every day! As I always say: There are no BAD Employees only Managers without vision or intellect to lead and great well defined Leadership is the base of any Success in any given Company! I specifically liked the recommendation to leave a message for the owner on a piece of paper when I asked for the e-mail address of such, "smart try just not smart enough” but than again that is exactly the reason why Social Media is so helpful to make the voice of the Costumer come forward ! Photos available upon request !
• MarilynDM (8/5): Staff do not speak any English - It was hard to communicate. We tried to get a coffee one morning because there was a breakfast menu on the reception desk. We finally asked another guest to translate and she said that we would have to wait 20 minutes. This was around 8am in the morning. We finally went somewhere else. Another guest said he was unaware that they had breakfast and he had been there for a week. Later in the day another couple said they were on their way to breakfast? Apparently it was served on the roof, but it was a late start. The rooms were really stuffy and there was an overwhelming closed up smell each time we entered our room at the end of the day. It was reasonably quiet though and apart from the language barrier - friendly.
• GabrielL829 (8/5): Nice stay very friendly and helpful staff - Great price and well located house! We came to Oaxaca without a reservation and tried this place for the first time. The room was spacious and decent. They might do better with the sheets, they look pretty old and stained. At night room 214 can be very noised. We liked pretty much de service, the front desk guys were amazingly helpful. I loved that!
• 242sarahv (10/5): Great hotel - Great hotel, great location, and friendly staff. There was always warm water in the shower. Would use this hotel again. They even helped us arrange a tour. We were in walking distance to santo Domingo church, the zocalo, and the best breakfast in town.......parador de alcala
• fionakarin (10/5): nice rooms, excellent value - stayed here one night and loved it. didn't expect such nice rooms, with a king size bed, a beautiful wooden table and couch for under 600 pesos. hotel is well located too, with good coffee shop across street.
• El-Negro-Jocoso (10/5): Nice House, Clean, well located, good prix - Nice White Colonial House Restored in the corner Porfirio Diaz and Carranza Streets very well located at two blocks of Sto Domingo Convent at one block of Carmen Alto Church terrace and patio excellent service of owners french mexican resort good breackfast very clean
