La Villada Inn Hostel Reviews

Very nice and helpful people. Gorgeous grounds.

Thanks for having us guys, you have a great place in a lovely city.

The only real criticism we had is that the shower head sprayed water all over the place making it difficult to find a good place to rinse! The management and staff were delightful.

As comfortable as a bed on a dancefloor... Everthing was fine (pool, restaurant, room) until the night started, and with it the party at the poolbar. In the case of this posada a party in the bar means that anyone in the next 100m will hear music loud and clear, whether actually being on the dancefloor or in their bed. So until the music stopped at 4 am, none was able to sleep and nobody had warned us. So before booking here, make sure no party is planned - or that you are in a big party mood.

My room was noisy and dirty, spiders, black hairs in the shower and dust so thick on the shelves it stained my case. I tried to pay 3 times but the staff were not around. Having been told I could pay in US$ and receive change in US$ I did not and got my change in pesos at a bum exchange rate. After the 4th night of not being able to sleep due to loud music I left at 3.00am. They have a bar they hire out to corporates for Xmas parties. Deeply unhelpful staff too.

Whilst this hostel is a bit out of the town it is beautiful and more like a resort under construction than a hostel, at a hostel prices. Bus service in and out of town makes it work. Stay here if you want to chill or the Centro if you want to party...

La Villada feels more like a Spa than a hostel. It's rooms are clean and spacious, and there is warm water in the showers. It is a great place to relax and enjoy if you're staying several days as it has a beautiful pool, terrace, restaurant and bar. It may be a bit calm if there are few people staying there, but that didn't stop us from partying with the staff at the fully equipped Hostel bar. It's only down side is it's location (15 min taxi from city center) butit makes up with an amazing view

Friendly staff, clean accomodation and friendly atmosphere. Highly recommended

Had a good stay. The owner is well aware of the difficulty of the location for going and coming to Oaxaca. I gave them a few ideas as far as getting directions to the hostel. I wish them all the best of luck and would return if in Oaxaca.

The hostel is a bit hard to find, especially in the dark, but the view from up there is wonderful and makes the trouble worthwhile!

A really nice place with a wonderful view. Then the staff will make you feel like at home.

Very helpful and friendly English speaking staff. Its a bit remote but the Villada is high above all the noise and pollution so its worth it. Great view!

Very Nice, very clean, very beautiful. Breakfast (which you can buy) was not so much, but ok. Dinner and Lunch was good.

good place, view, fresh air and very nice, easy going owners. a bit far from town, in case you love to walk / take bus or taxi. the tours are great also able to pick you up in the hostel and take you back.

The Guys who run the hostel were great we had an awesome two nights at La Villada Hostel. Although it is a bit out of town the atmosphere, swimming pool and views make up for it. And thank you Juliet for teaching us to cook Oaxacan Style!!!

The hostel set right at the top of a hill looking out over the mountains was so nice. Every morning seeing the mountains set us up for a great day. Every day we spent at the hostel we were happy loved the pool really nice to cool down after the long rewarding walk up the hill(dont get lost we did on our first atempt to navigate our way back but even that was fun. All the staff were helpfull. Make sure on arrival that your room has wi fi as some of the new builds did not which is were we stayed.
