One of the best hosts I have encountered - Moises was very friendly and attentive, he provided all the information I needed, showed guests around the city - excellent hospitality! With the information given, I was able to visit Monte Alban and El Tule (the tree) by myself. It’s a non party hostel and located a bit out of the centre, that’s why I liked it even more. Hot showers, equipped kitchen, clean and safe. Definitely recommended!

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!!
