    Charming, lovely ambiance. Great value. Just have some earplugs if the sound of traffic bothers you.

    Although the property itself is very peaceful it is located on a busy street and you hear traffic almost all night.

    Beautiful courtyards, charming rooms. Very ecological. Clean with nice towels and linen. Nice touches: loaner hats, umbrellas and bags.

    Breakfast options are limited, you might not get the bedding you ask (double room or 2 single beds as availability may vary without prior notice).

    Premium location, nice staff, nice courtyard, basic breakfast but free (there’s a nice coffee shop and pastry shop right on the corner though)

    For one night, I didn't have chance to find anything bad.

    Maybe adding a standing/table fan in addition to the ceiling fan, but I knew I'd chosen a place without air conditioning!

    Las Mariposas was really what I was looking for--small operation and affordable for a short stay. As the other comments noted it's pretty warm without air conditioning but I expected that when I booked. The outdoor spaces were very pleasant (and cooler!). Great wifi and appreciated that they provided drinking water. I enjoyed the simple breakfast and generally felt like it would have been a very welcoming place for a solo traveler to stay for a couple of days. Good location, too. The staff were also really great about letting me leave my bags for a few hours on check-out day. Would recommend!

    It would have been really nice to have had air conditioning.

    It was very nice with comfortable bed and nice bathroom with a kitchen and place to sit. The courtyards where very beautiful and nice to sit in the afternoon. Also we all felt secure behind the locked gates day and night. The staff were increíble. It is a short walk to Oaxaca by local tours , a huge park and the local markets. This is definitely a very special place.

    The grounds were absolutely adorable-I loved all the cute details and all of the plants/succulents. So quiet and serene. I would definitely stay here again! We initially only booked 2 nights because we were not familiar with the city and weren’t sure if we would want to stay somewhere else for the rest of our stay. The location was perfect, and we were easily able to extend our stay, which we were appreciative of.

    It was ver hot but the fan was of some assistance. We had a light in the court yard that shined in our eyes all night.

    Breakfast was average, but bad not great.

    The room was small with no AC though with the fan it was ok.

    Very pleasant- quiet even if it was in the historic area, very close to main attractions like the museum, botanical garden, Jalatlaco neighborhood, and about 10mins walk to the zocalo. Staff was very nice. Shared kitchen and small breakfast was great to have, and there are great small cafes nearby for brunch as well. Cheap laundromat around the corner. Every morning (except Wednesday) there was someone selling artisanal crafts in the courtyard.

    There is no air conditioning which meant the room was often hot, but this was not a huge issue for us as everything else was so great.

    Las Mariposas is a little oasis, with friendly staff, great amenities and beautiful decor. Everything has been thought of and the atmosphere is lovely.

    It was hot at night to sleep, even with a fan. Maybe the top floors get more of a breeze? If they had AC I would definitely book again!

    Gorgeous and quiet, even being surrounded by the city! It’s in a great location to the square and wonderful restaurants! I felt safe the whole time. Check in process was thorough and smooth. They let us check in a little early no problem. The dogs are quiet and friendly.

    I stayed in two different rooms: one a large studio and the other a smaller room towards the back of the hotel. The studio had AC which was nice because it did get quite hot and the air circulation wasn't great. A lot of light leaks into the studio but fortunately I had my eye mask. The smaller room didnt have good air circulation and, though it was cooler out on the patio, my room stayed quite warm. There was a good standing fan though.

    A lovely space, with gardens and patios. The staff is friendly and helpful. The rooms were clean and beds were comfortable. I liked the fountain and the koi!
