A very nice hostel in Oaxaca de Juarez

This hostel is built almost like a little hacienda, the rooms are put in a half circle around the dining area. It is by far the cleanest hostel I have ever visited and it is constantly taken care of by great friendly easy goiog people. Even the bed gets made each day! Each room has a key, as well as the frontdoor. Its also a short walk away from the zocalo and pretty close to the ADO bus station.

Unique Quality: Theres a wi-fi connection and a computer, mountainbikes are available for rent to take one of the trails around the close mountains.

A great place to stay in Oaxaca

My husband and I stayed at the Hostal Pochon in what turned out to be the very best of circumstances. We had the upstairs suite with our own balcony and loads of space. From the minute of our arrival to our leaving the staff was very helpful, warm and courteous. We are an older couple so that meant we had lots of requests from maps to computer help to wake up calls, etc. They all helped us in English as well.
Breakfast was very good; water always available; atmosphere comfortable and welcoming. After this lovely stay was over and we were back home we discovered that we had left things behind. And they kept them safely for us.
We cannot recommend this hostel highly enough. It was great from all points of view.

Unique Quality: Private baloney view, very good breakfast, top staff help. Excellent location to walk everywhere.
