Refugio review
First, we had a lovely time in Oaxaca. The place was in a nice location. We stayed for seven weeks and remote worked. The wifi was excellent. And best of all was the property manager, Uriel. He was exceedingly attentive and always with good humor.
What didn’t work was that the place was very hard to keep clean with just a canvas canopy over the cement floor. The noise from literally 20 dogs in one house two houses down, the two roof dogs next door, and the incessant loud music on the other side keep things lively for sure.
What’s clear is that although we had lots of fun, we were disappointed with this place and realized after comparing our place to other places, ours was overpriced for the value.
