Amazing stay at this hostel. Great rooftop and bar, plenty of activities, daily breakfast and kitchen/central area are great for socialising ... Staff were super helpful and lovely! Location is very close to the centre too and music/noise are off by 11 pm. Bed was comfy and had privacy curtains. Would recommend!

The price. The vibe, the rooftop bar, the staff, the location. The breakfast. Really was great. Place is quiet every night by 11pm.

The mosquito net in our room was ripped and really served no purpose. Put thats the only flaw

It was so colourful and had lots of hangout areas, including the rooftop and lobby. Our room was small but cozy, with a fan :)

There was not much to dislike. Everyone seemed quite young - we are 32, most of the guests seemed 20 but it's normal :-D

cool hangout area and the breakfast was yum!

a lot of people in one room which makes it difficult to get to sleep

private spaces for your bed, good breakfast, coffee in the morning, bar, space for doing yoga/workouts on the rooftop, no pool

wifi doesn’t work in the bedroom

My stay was very enjoyable- staff, facilities and location were great!!

The rooftop and the general vibe of the place. Not fancy at all but cozy

Shower and batroom. Not light in the dorm, bottom dorm the ceiling is to low.

Perfect location!

Great social set up. Whatsapp group for guests. Terrace bar with activities and easy to meet other people. Super friendly bar staff. Cleaners were lovely ladies. Breakfast was great and the cook was lovely.

Beds a bit dingy and dark.

the hostel has a really nice vibe & lots of potential

bed bugs!!! big time - I’ve literally had to pick them off me. the place isn’t clean at all, my under-sheets were really marked with what I assume is bed bug blood and I got bed bugs on my 3rd night. someone I had met said they had them the night before and I also heard that someone in their same bed had them a few days before. when I spoke to the volunteer about the fact that I had been bitten on my 3rd night she was really rude, she said it’s normal for hostels to have bed bugs and that they are really good about setting out poisons — I hadn’t seen one in my 3 days of being there though. I asked for a refund and she said because I had stayed there they weren’t going to give me a refund for that night. this was after the volunteer has spoken to the owner / manager. they did offer to disinfect my clothes and said they would put them in alcohol and set them out to dry - which I have read is pretty inefficient so this is probably why they can’t seem to get rid of the issue. I found it pretty insulting that a hostel would just shun all responsibility for this - the ‘im just a volunteer’ excuse she gave just isn’t good enough. I have also heard the owner is building a new hostel which I assume is probably why they are being stingy and focused on keeping their cash

The TOWELS!! THE BEST TOWELS IN ALL OF MEXICO (in any hostel anyway) The breakfast, awesome, and changes every day!! The staff were fantastic, helped make the stay unforgettable! The bar, good prices, didn't rip off their customers like some I will mention, yes you Selina you mugs!!

Nothing

Really chilled backpackers close to lots of sights. Nice place to meet fellow travellers. Breakfast included was great.

Everyone super nice in ALL ways. Showers hot/cold taps the same COLD. Breakfast awesome but don't expect eggs or any meat. Do backflips to accommodate, fabulous. Thanx guys. Ps don't be afraid to ask for extra blankets at nite.

Showers

Great functioning kitchen

Bathrooms were meh

Great hostel in the center of the city heart. Plenty of information from the friendly and helpful staff. Free salsa course on the rooftop bar. whatsapp group which helps you get around. Get all infos about what to see, do , get around or book trips. And of course meetup with 'strangers' to spend some time together. Great local breakfast if you like. Security advices.

Oaxaca is short on water, but shower heads and pressure could be updated, to provide even faster showering / saving water. Missing hooks on the wall to place your clothes on, please install some!

the hanging out area, the roof top bar and hangmacks, the breakfast, the fact that you have privacy curtains

I needed to ask for a warm blanket

clean, central, good wifi, nice staff, flexible, great vibes, nice atmosphere

Amazing cozy and social hostel! Nice Kitchen & good traditional breakfast.

Everything was perfect!

Breakfast was great but not served before 9am. A bit earlier would be great

I really enjoyed staying in Iguana. Although the rooms are a bit dark and not super comfy, you can have your own space even while staying in a dorm, which is great! The common area is excellent, and they offer a great variety of activities that made me want to stay longer. Theres an amazing kitchen, with a lot of space to cook. Also, the (included) breakfast was delicious! Would stay again!

I stayed in a dorm closer to the entrance and it was very noisy from 7am on

Great staff and lots to do I would gladly stay again!
