El Diablo y la Sandia, Libres

Really great hotel. Very good value for the price and very well located without the city. The courtyard where you can get breakfast is absolutely lovely and there's beautiful decor throughout. I recommend getting the Luna room if it's available! It's upstairs next to the really beautiful terrace full of plants and has larger windows that look out over the courtyard.

I loved my stay at El Diablo Y La Sandia. The location is quiet, yet very walkable to Santo Domingo, the Alacala, restaurants, and the Textile Museum. The staff are exceptional, Fernando helped us immensely especially when we needed to find different lodging in Mexico City. The breakfasts are outstanding and great coffee was always available early. The rooftop patio is an oasis. My room, Corazon, was lovely with a comfortable bed and pillows, a clean and spacious bathroom with a shower, plenty of storage for my clothing. I felt so safe and comfortable, I couldn’t wait to get back to my place after a long day of walking around. I’d definitely stay there again, and Ive stayed many places in Oaxaca City in the 13 years Ive been going there.

Diablo y Sandia is truly a gem. Once you enter the doorway you are in a quiet refuge from the busy street. The rooms are sweetly decorated, quiet, clean and comfortable. The real treat is breakfast each morning. The staff set a beautiful communal table and the food is well prepared and beautifully served. |Both kitchen and office staff are very helpful. The location is convenient...close to the zocalo and city center. It is also close to the neighborhoods of La Merced and Jalatlaco (murals are great).|We so enjoyed our stay.

We really enjoyed our stay here. Our room was lovely and the bed comfortable. We enjoyed the breakfasts in the courtyard every morning. They were flexible with the hours, we had two early tours, which they helped arranged and both days we had breakfast an hour early. Fernando was very helpful, booking tours and a taxi for us on our last day. |Just a few things to be aware of. The location is not quite central and it was a bit dark for several blocks around the BnB. That said, we had absolutely no problems and felt safe. Also there is no staff there at night but there are numbers posted that you can call.

Our hosts were very kind, warm and friendly. The breakfast table was delightful with different Mexican specialities every morning and lovely tableware. So good to meet other travellers at that table too. When we had a health problem, the lovely owner who spoke perfect English, sorted it all out for us.

Great place to stay in Oaxaca. Felt like home. Everyone was nice, helpful and welcoming. Breakfast every morning was great. You should go there is if you in Oaxaca.||Don't hesitate to contact them to have info on Oaxaca and if you need they can arrange day trips for you.

El Diablo y la Dandia en Libres is a lovely small B&B that is quiet and quaint within walking distance of downtown. Breakfasts are delicious and there is a very warm, friendly atmosphere to enjoy a few days of Oaxaca in. Close to Park Llano and just off the congestion for some quiet evenings.

We enjoyed our one week stay we had at this B&B. It is walking distance to everything. The staff is kind and hospitable. Our room, Corazon, was lovely and very clean. The breakfast is homemade and delicious, but a little more variety would have been appreciated as most days we were there it was cheese in a homemade sauce. Also, two of the nights we stayed there was live music that started playing at 10 PM and lasted till the wee hours of the morning. It was very loud (it was like they were playing in our room!). Apparently, there is a live music venue on the adjacent street to the hotel. Luckily, we had brought earplugs from home, which helped lessen the volume. As such, I highly recommend bringing earplugs. Otherwise, we really enjoyed our stay and we are glad we stayed there.
