Hard to Rest

The bed and pillows were hard as a rock. There is a floor fan, but you can not open the window because of the noise. the was a terrible smell from the water when we tried to fill the tub. The floor next to the tub was covered with water when you took a shower, which made it very unsafe getting out of the Shower. The Junior suite 108 is over the garage and it noisy The staff would be moving the trashcans early in the morning. Could not get the WIFI while in the room, had to go to the lobby.

Convenient Location, Wonderful Staff

Our family of 4 spent 5 days in Oaxaca and the surrounding towns soaking up the culture, and enjoying the food and friendly people. There are many things to do and see in the city of Oaxaca, and several small towns outside of the city that are fun to explore. We visited a mezcal factory, observed locals weaving rugs, making baskets, carving and painting alebrijes, and we thoroughly enjoyed exploring the ruins of Monte Alban.

On the outskirts of historic city center but safe

The staff was professional and friendly. The restaurant food was OK but a little pricey for what you got. It is next to a newspaper and government offices. The only thing keeping the hotel from getting 4 stars were rock hard matress' and pillows.

Great value for the money!

Oaxaca is a destination for Night of the Radishes and Christmas, and the more upscale hotels were full when I went to book. This hotel is a bargain -- it was quite pleasant and adequate for all our needs, including TV and internet.

Great location and price is right

This is not a luxury hotel but it is clean and the location is safe. Only 5 blocks away from El Andador, pedestrian way. In 5-10 minutes walk you are in Santo Domingo. Hotel Oaxaca Azul is one block away and Quinta Real is 2 blocks, both have better facilities than Cantera Real but the price is more than double for what you pay in Cantera Real. The staff in Cantera Real is friendly and professional at the same time. I spent a week in this hotel, I had a room with a balcony overlooking the street that at times was busy with traffic but at night was quiet. The W fi works well, the computer at the reception does not work; therefore if you plan to stay bring your computer or tablet. I enjoyed my stay, if I return to Oaxaca I probably will stay in this hotel if the price is right. The restaurant in hotel is good and there is parking in the facility.

Beautiful hotel

We stayed at Cantera Real for two nights. The rooms were small but very comfortable. The employees were extra nice and the food and drinks at the restaurant were great. Next time we go to Oaxaca we are definitely staying there again.
