This was a lovely property with attentive and hospitable staff. We had not realized that private parking is not available after 10 pm, but were able to easily find street spots.

Really liked the hotel and staff. Everybody was very nice and helpful. The rooms were clean. We had a problem though of coming back to find a very expensive bottle of mezcal had disappeared. Also, my friend checked out a few hours after I did and wasn't given the deposit back. I inquired as to why and was never answered. I'm planning on many future trips to Oaxaca but it seems unlikely we'll stay here again.

Nice hotel with a super location close to the center and restaurants/cafes, nice staff. The only thing I didn’t like is that it could’ve been cleaner and there was a moldy smell in the room. Also the walls are super thin so you can here everything from the other rooms. Mattress was also too hard for me but the stuff helped me out.

Very nice hotel, very close to the tourist areas but not next them so at night you can rest quietly. Wifi is a bit spotty in the rooms but overall very nice and clean hotel with friendly staff.

The treatment of the staff is terrible, they charge you additional fees if you pay via credit card (even though this is illegal in Mexico) . It is advertised as a hotel with parking but it is not true, and it is charged additionally since it es an external supplier

I had the worst experience in this Hotel. They charge my credit card twice thinking I was not going to notice during my stay. They said they would refund my credit card but they didn't. At the reception the manager (I think her name was Virginia) recommended that I requested the refund in cash because the owners were not trustworthy. I spoke with the owner and he almost threatened me. I called Expedia but they could n to do anything because I had paid directly at the hotel. I wish Expedia and all travel agencies stop doing business with the fraudulent hotel.

Yikes. This was made bad by a few small things and one major one. During our stay, a pipe burst and the room flooded. It soaked our luggage and clothes, which we needed to bring to the airport, so we could not dry them out. Aside from offering additional towels, the hotel staff didn't acknowledge the problem on site and refused to offer any reimbursement towards the amount paid afterwards and instead said that if we returned, they might offer a discount.
The hostel was advertised on the Hotels.com website as a hotel called "Casa Dos Lucas," so it was confusing and misleading to arrive at a hostel instead. I booked on mobile, so I had no reason to think it was a hostel and not a hotel until I arrived, I had booked other hotels with the name "Casa" in them in Oaxaca that were in fact hotels.
Parts of the room broke, like the lightswitch.
Finally, the hostel also has front doors that lock people in and out, so there were a few times, like when we were trying to escape with our soaked luggage, when we couldn't leave until a staff member turned up minutes later.
There are MUCH better hotels and hostels in the city, look elsewhere!

Good service, clean room and great view from the rooftop terrace. The hostel is located a few blocks from the city centre. The breakfast is good. At this price, it is probably the best room available.

We absolutely loved this hostel! We stayed in a double room with private bathroom and were very happy with it. It is very basic, but has everything you need. Definitely so much nicer than we could have expected for this price. The hostel itself is very cute as well, with a nice rooftop terrace. Breakfast was freshly made every day, but quite deep-fried and wasn't really for us.
Location is great! Within minutes you're in the middle of the historical centre.

My husband and I stayed here for 3 nights during our trip through Oaxaca. We were traveling via motorcycle & the owner let us park in the main lobby which was nice and put us at ease so we didn't have to worry about theft. Friendly, bi-lingual employees. The location is great for site seeing, being within 10 minutes walking distance of all the historic landmarks, cafe's and restaurants. At the hostel we got a double room with a shared bathroom. The room was large and clean with free toiletries and one towel each. It had two queen beds, a lot of storage, a small desk with mirror, a fan, and a TV. Everyday we'd come back from adventuring and our bed would be re-made. Wi-fi was pretty decent. My only complaint about the room itself is that the window has a natural gap in it which meant mosquitoes would come into the room and we could hear everyone outside in the courtyard talking/yelling etc... and you only get one set of shampoo/soap regardless of length of stay. The shared bathroom wasn't so bad, but got obnoxious because guests would see that it was a bathroom & everyone would use it. It was meant for us and the room across from us, & so it was frustrating when we'd need to use it and someone from a dorm room would be in there etc.. Breakfast is included each morning, but is hit or miss. First day we got chiloquiles but only chips and sauce and very weak coffee. Day two was good eggs but same bad coffee. We ended up going to nearby cafes. Boulenc around the corner is AMAZING.

This was my second visit to Dos Lunas with a much better room including a TV. But there is hot water only from 7am to 10am anreven during that period they sometime fail to turn it on. Great location! Nice small courtyard. You need to be let in and out of the building by the front desk staff. No visitors are allowed.
