We had to book a room for one night before driving to Puerto Escondido. Selina was conveniently located two blocks from our previous stay and one block from the car rental. It’s also a great location in el centro. I was a little nervous based on reviews and the fact it’s a hostel, but everything was great! Very nice front desk staff. They stored our luggage for a few hours until check-in. We booked the Loft room for 3 people and it was perfect. It had one king bed and one queen at opposite ends of the room. Great amenities and consistent, hot water - better than some hotels I’ve stayed in! All in all, pleasantly surprised and happy with our stay. We even decided to book again for our last night in town!

The hotel is simple but has everything you need. Very comfortable and the AC is great after walking around in the heat all day. The internet isn’t fast enough for a video call but hopefully you didn’t come to Oaxaca to do a bunch of work. Staff is very responsive and friendly. Located close enough to el Zocalo and many restaurants. It can be a little noisy on the weekends but honestly, we were so tired after a full day of Oaxacan heat that we didn’t mind.

Very clean. Friendly staff. Very walkable

Superb location. Onsite breakfast convenient Wed r rt

Awesome staff and amenities! Fantastic location as well.

The room was spotless and staff was always friendly

The staff was helpful and nice to talk to. We loved having the breakfast and coffee options right down our room. The bar is also a great option. Very walkable to the andador and the other great sites within 5 minutes walk. Sabina Sabe is just a few steps away as well as other restaurant options. The place is clean and well kept. The only downside is the beds are super hard, and for a person who is used to a Tempurpedic bed, this was like sleeping on the floor. If you don’t mind a hard bed, this is a great option, because it’s on a perfect location, great price, with a restaurant and bar on site.

We loved this hotel! It has such a cute and authentic feel. The staff were incredibly lovely and accommodating. The rooms are spacious with cold AC, and the location is very walkable with lots of shops and restaurants nearby. One night, the club next door was a bit loud, but they provide earplugs (which we didn’t end up needing). Parking is limited in the area, but you really don’t need a car in this location. There’s also a nice coworking space. We would definitely stay here again and were very happy with our stay.

This hostal is one of the best-kept "secrets" in Oaxaca. Apart from being located perfectly in between the historic Santo Domingo Church and the Zocalo, the staff was super friendly. There's also a popular coffee shop connected directly to the hostal.

I booked the compact room and didn’t realize just how small it would be, with a shared bathroom. Personally, I wouldn’t choose that room again due to the size and the shared bathroom. However, aside from that, my stay was very good the place felt safe and the staff were friendly.

Walking distance from the Zocalo

Perfect location everything is in walking distance.

I just stayed here as a solo female traveler and I can’t recommend it enough! Perfect location, great hostel and friendly/helpful staff. Cannot wait to stay here again!

We had a great stay at Selina Oaxaca. Cokowking was perfect until Thursday when Wifi wouldn't properly work. The terrace was closed due to construction. We would have loved to be advised before realizing it. Otherwise, would recommend :)

The room was clean and comfortable. Staff friendly and helpful. It was convenient to be able to get breakfast at the adjoining bar/ restaurant. Things were lively and noisy till 10 p.m., then very quiet all night. Close to SO many neutral and fun things to do and see! I would definitely stay there again.

My stay at Selina was great. I was looking for something affordable and decent, but also accessible to the centro. The rooms were decent, and always clean. I would definitely book them again next time I visit Oaxaca.

Stayed here before, this time was good too, would recommend.

Todo estuvo muy bien, muy céntrico.

Very central, rooms are huge, modern space with shared kitchen and coworking space. It s a very loud courtyard and the bar plays music loud. Things get quiet after 11pm so just don’t expect quiet before that. Breakfast is great!

As an older guy I was surprised that the room I was assigned was “co-ed”. Roomies are all super respectful of each others privacy! No issues at all. I really like this place. Near Centro and lots of other shopping opportunities. Would recommend to all!
