    I recently stayed at Hostal Xao for a few nights during my trip to Oaxaca. The owner has clearly put effort into making this place comfortable, and it's definitely one of the most comfortable hotels I've stayed in. The towels and bed sheets provided were of high quality, and I appreciated having coffee and hot water available. The location is central and convenient, just a short walk from the center and main markets. The hostel is also right across from the bus terminal, which is great if you're coming from San Jose del Pacifico. The dorm beds were really cozy, with a power point, night light, and night table. The walls were adorned with beautiful art pieces. Plus, there was free water, tea, and coffee. The staff were friendly and helpful, especially during the Guelaguetza festival, providing us with directions and support throughout our stay.

    I recommend this hotel.

    loved my stay at this cozy and modern hostel in oaxaca. the staff was incredibly helpful during the guelaguetza festival, providing great recommendations and support. the beds were comfortable and had privacy, and the rooftop view was breathtaking. the attention to detail, like local art and free coffee, made it feel like a home away from home.

    No toilet paper in the rooftop bathrooms.

    We absolutely loved our stay at Database Hostel! The dorm beds were spacious and comfortable, with curtains for added privacy, individual lights and electrical outlets. The hot water in the bathroom was a great bonus. The hostel is centrally located, making it super convenient to access the colectivos and buses to popular destinations like Pochutla, Zipolite, Puerto Escondido, and Mexico City. The cleanliness and maintenance of the hostel were top-notch, and the staff were friendly and accommodating. Free coffee was a nice touch, and the Wi-Fi worked really well. We also enjoyed the beautiful art displayed on the walls and the rooftop area for some fresh air. Database Hostel is a clean, modern and well-located option for travelers like us.

    We felt very happy during our stay at Database Hostel and have no complaints whatsoever.

    The staff at Hostal Xao were helpful in Oaxaca. They provided us with useful tips and guidance for attending the Guelaguetza festival. The location of the hostel was convenient, with comfortable bunk beds and a rooftop offering an amazing view of the city. Clean towels and complimentary coffee were a nice touch.
