Casa Ollin is okay, but not amazing -- and frankly, a bit pricey for what you get (compared with other offerings in Oaxaca City). The Pros: • Quiet (in residential neighborhood that's virtually dead at night) • Conveniently located (a short walk from the zocalo) • Clean • Safe • Recently renovated • Judith, one of the owners, is friendly... more

Clean lodgings, comfortable beds, kind people, exceptionally delicious breakfast, perfect location. The rooms around the pool are hot. We were there in April which is the hot season, so take that into account, but there's little ventilation in the rooms that are in the main house and so even opening all doors and windows and turning the fan on is... more

My husband and I went for a belated honeymoon. We were met wtih guava juice and the happy news of an upgrade to the honeymoon suite. The very friendly ladies who worked there carried my bag up, kept the room spotless and provided pool side towels whenever they saw us venturing out into the beautiful courtyard. The furnishings are bright,... more

We loved the Judith and the staff at Casa Ollin. So friendly and personable. Judith was very helpful with advice and recommendations, from safety to good places to eat. The B&B is just far enough from the Zocalo and Alcala to be a respite, while close enough to easily walk to the museums, galleries, shops, and restaurants. It was unseasonably... more

This spring break we traveled with our ten-year old son to Oaxaca and stayed at Casa Ollin. This was his first time out of the country and we were anxious to have a rich cultural experience and get a real taste of Oaxacan life. We could NOT have chosen a better place to stay. The owners and staff at Casa... more

My husband and I took a gamble on booking a B&B, as our previous experiences at B&B's was not favorable. To our extreme delight, the Casa Ollin B&B was the perfect choice. Owners Jon, Judith and their friendly staff provided a comfortable, friendly environmnent for our week's visit. The room was large, comfortable, clean, private and pleasingly decorated with local... more

What wonderful and warm folks John and Judith are. Every day the place grows on you. They are full of great travel advice and will do anythign to make your stay enjoyable. On our first night, our luggage was lost, and by the next morning Judith had her son at the airport picking it up. I highly recommend getting Cesar... more

When Jon asked for ways that Oaxaca Ollin could be improved, I came up with - nothing. This is the perfect hideaway to enjoy all that Oaxaca and the surrounding area have to offer. It is tucked away on a quiet street, but only a few blocks away from the action of the Zocalo. The layout allows visiting and comparing... more

In early-March, my wife and I spent a week at the Casa Ollin. Without question, it's the most relaxing time we've spent in Mexico. In fact, we had such a great time and enjoyed the owners and staff so much that we put together a short video that that you'll find in the the upper right-side of this page in... more
