“This property strikes me as a mixed bag. While the location is convenient for accessing markets and the bus terminal, some aspects, like inconsistent cleanliness and thin walls, give me pause. The presence of both common areas and co-working spaces is a definite plus, but it's worth considering other options in Oaxaca.”
