Room was very small. But adaquate for a short stay. Bed was hard as a concrete block. But that's every hotel in Mexico. They like their firm mattresses. Good value for the money. Staff was nice. I'd stay again.

Nice place near the Centro with climatisation and a cute garden. It really isn’t chic or anything like that, but it was perfect for one night stay after a very long plane trip!

This is a great, simple option for travelers. The room was comfortable, had TV and AC, and was clean. Staff were very friendly and helpful, and quick. My only wish would be to have a bedside lamp in the room - the only option was the full overhead or a super dim bulb above the bed not bright enough for anything.

Sweet little place with great people and quiet and safe. Was in a little more grittier part of histórico centro on the frunce but no issues. Three blocks from the zócalo. The only thing that annoyed me was they used some type of spray in the room that smelled like chemicals. I had a little cold and it irritated me so I told them no more room cleaning and it was fine. Very quiet even though right in the middle of noisy Oaxaca main road.

Loved staying at the Happy Express. The staff was excellent and very helpful and friendly. Rooms are nice and clean and beds are on the harder side which I like. AC works well and you get woken up by a lot of birds that come to the courtyard. We'll be back!
