Economic and decent place if you are in Oaxaca and need a place to stay. Nothing fancy but this place is close to the main city centre and to the AU bus depot.

Room was very small. But adaquate for a short stay. Bed was hard as a concrete block. But that's every hotel in Mexico. They like their firm mattresses. Good value for the money. Staff was nice. I'd stay again.
