During my visit to Oaxaca City, I had a bad experience outside the hostel, however the staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. Reyna, Cristina, Mary and Arturo helped me with my problem and made me feel safer. I really recommend this place, it has its own beauty. You will make yourself like you are at home.

Cons:
1) They say its a 6 person room but they lied, those rooms have another bunk bed. This means its very crowded with 8 in total in a small room, with little to no room to even move around.
2) Because they permanently added the additional bunk bed, one of the top bunks is directly under someone, meaning the room can't have A/C without the person on the top bunk having liquid drip on them.
3) They are better places to stay near the area for around the same price.
Pro:
1) Good location
2) Free breakfast

Awful Staff
The behaviours concerning a sizable proportion of the staff here is beyond disgusting. The night receptionist is a liar and a fiend who "works" with open hostility and anger at every interaction. This festival week the man in question actually refused to let is leave the hostel at one point because of his lazy attitude and the apparent complexity of standing up and unlocking a door...in addition to this they exploit the guests via the classic taxi scam by inflating the price to the extent of about 300% or whatever fee they judge might be feasibly exploited from unaware guests. We visited a cemetery 4km away and the mobile taxi applications quoted 115peso, though consequent to time restraints we requested a taxi from the hostel at 200peso which then increased to 250 after we ordered it and then when it arrived it was apparently 350 for a 20 minute drive!!! We refused the inflated 350 and paid 250, though we met upon our return guests who were scammed at 350. The cleaning staff also throw water over the roof into the courtyard every day apparently "by accident" though I disbelieve this given that's it was often accompanied by giggles....which sounds harmless until torrents hit your laptop, which is hardly amusing...and if this wasn't already enough I was accused of sleeping in the hostel on a day that I wasn't booked in for the day of the dead festivities when I was out partying until 7am.

No fué lo que esperábamos
Reservamos sus camas en habitación de 6, pero nos dieron habitación de 8; en la página ofrecen desayuno y solo dan café con pan.
El dormitorio muy pequeño, literas pegadas, limitado espacio, mucha humedad, los locker son una tortura: de metal y suenan demasiado hasta con los botones y cierres de la ropa; el lavabo dentro de la habitación.
Si quieres descansar no sé recomienda.
La ubicación bien, el personal muy amable, el hotel mal improvisado.

Experiencia
El lugar está bien para viajeros, se hospeda mucha gente extranjera. Nosotros somos 4 mujeres y tuvimos que compartir la habitación y baño con 2 personas desconocidas más, fue incómodo pero ya vivimos la experiencia de hospedarnos en un Hostal y definitivamente no hay nada como la privacidad de tu propia habitación.
