Lovely B&B in Oaxaca

Great location in Oaxaca. Easy walking to everything, located in quieter portion of the street that runs through town. Feels safe night and day. The room we had was very comfortable and included kitchenette. The owners are very kind and helpful. Would definitely book here again.

Location was excellent. On a small, quiet and scenic strolling street bordered by a picturesque ancient aqueduct yet within easy walking distance to the main area of Oaxaca. Retablos room was simple and spotlessly clean. Shower was large with wonderful rain shower fixture. Comfortable beds with high quality linens.

Location is great. It's an easy walk to good restaurants and popular tourist sites, and on a safe and well lit street. The owner, Juan, is on-site and makes sure that the place is clean. It's just a little expensive though in comparison to some of the other places nearby.

Casa los Arquitos

It’s a wonderful B&B in a great location. The rooms are nicely decorated and the everything is very clean. Our host, Juan, couldn’t not have been more welcoming and attentive. Please note that they are not set up for credit card payments so you will have to pay in cash. They accept pesos or dollars and possibly other currencies. If you are a big breakfast person, the breakfast offered is more of a snack...fruit, toast, yogurt, granola, coffee and juice. I highly recommend Casa los Arquitos and I plan to visit again!

Great little B&B type accommodation

Great little B&B type accommodations in a perfect part of historic downtown Oaxaca. Remember this will be smaller Euro style rooms as this is a very old part of town. Juan was very accommodating and a joyful host. FYI - Breakfast is not a full cooked American breakfast but, was sufficient for my wife and I...
