I had a lovely stay here! The rooms and facilities were all so clean and cleaned by the amazing staff throughout the day, everyday! The rooms were very comfortable and the beds comfortable enough. The price for this stay was also a big positive! The location was great too! 3 minute walk to the zocalo! Would highly recommend this place for any and all travellers!

Azul Cielo became my favorite hostel in Mexico! It's a very nice and cosy hostel. Very social - lots of activities going on everyday. And the oaxacan dinner was the best of them all! Friendly staff, clean rooms, quiet location. I didn't feel unsafe there even walking in the dark. I recommend this hostel to everyone! And I hope to come back there someday too

Great hostel experience! Clean and inviting with lots of outdoor space, friendly and attentive staff, active group chat with lots of great events and social opportunities both at the hostel and around town. A good pick for solo travelers and couples, especially those looking for a social vibe without being too big or overwhelming. Quiet hours were respected, so going to bed early was definitely possible.

This hostel has everything you need. The location is outside of the touristy areas, so it's a bit quieter, but only a 20 minute walk to the city center. The host is very accommodating, quick to respond, and has plenty of local tips. I actually returned to this hostel after spending about two weeks there a little while back because of the comfort and the amazing host. Would absolutely recommend.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

This hostel is one of my favourite hostels I’ve stayed at. Such a social vibe with plenty of opportunities to meet new people and explore Oaxaca. It felt super safe and always very clean and the volunteers are the kindest humans ever!!
