Hostal Chocolate Calenda

A good place to stay, it was a bit noisy with the walls being very thin and it was a bit further out than other hostels. But beds were comfy and the staff were polite. Not a huge social atmosphere I think because of the lack of comfy common areas but I did meet a few people!

ONLY CASH !!!! We can’t pay by card !

Nice place but staff not very helpfull, we arrived before the end of check in time and nobody was there, we had to wait 30 and scream until someone who doesn’t work there opens to us. No payment by card. Covered me more than written on Hostelworld. Didn’t let us keep our stuff in the lockers/ any luggage storage. Overall okay, but basic client expectations not satisfied and expensive for what it is/ location.

I would definitely stay at Hostal Chocolate Calenda again! It was clean, friendly, very cutely set up and budget friendly.

Had a great stay at this hostel. The private room was lovely and the shower was huge. Not much of an atmosphere but was nice to just relax. Not too far from town probably a 5-10 minute walk to the main square

Overall a nice clean place where we felt Secure. Location was brilliant - walking distance to almost everything. Only downside was that we paid for ensuite but Got a shared bathroom and toilet.

Die Bilder und die Realität stimmen absolut überhaupt nicht überein. Die Zimmer sind lieblos gestaltet und das eigene Badezimmer existiert nicht.... stattdessen wird ein dreckiges Badezimmer mit anderen Gästen geteilt

Wir haben ein privates Zimmer mit Bad gebucht, bekamen jedoch eines ohne eigenes Badezimmer. Das geteilte Bad war dreckig und nach dem Duschen, stand der Boden unter Wasser (trotz Schwelle). Das gesamte Hostel aber insb. Das Zimmer entsprach überhaupt nicht der Beschreibung und den Fotos auf site. Das Zimmer war lieblos eingerichtet, ein Kabel kam aus der Wand und es war nicht sauber. Zudem gab es keine Aktivitäten im Hostel, keine Empfehlungen oder Tour-Angebote oder einen Hostel-Chat.

Un hostel très simple mais avec une bonne literie et un staff qui est attentionné envers son guest . J’ai passé deux bonnes nuits dans cet hostel.

La chica de recepción es super amable pero el cuarto femenino estaba súper sucio con compresas usadas en las camas de al lado y las sábanas sucias de otras personas que no se había retirado. El suelo también sucio. En general un poco desagradable.

The staff were really great and helpful and the drinking water is a plus. I think we may have got the short straw with the room. If you have room 1 which is private, you have a room with no natural light as the window opens out to a storage cupboard. Regarding Security I would have given a 10/10 if it weren't for our bathroom window being broken so anyone who entered the storage cupboard could jump into our room, which I doubt would happen as everyone seemed lovely, but the risk is there.

Bel emplacement dans la ville, mais dortoirs de 4 proche des douches et des toilettes et un peu bruyant. Terrasse extérieure agréable. Les volontaires étaient très gentils et de bons conseils pour nos déplacements. Sympa

I just want to say thank you guys because they save me in the celebration of the “día de muertos”all the Personal there were so nice and helpful. Thank you for everything. The location it’s very good. You can walk to the center and you can go to the Central. Thank you for everything.

We had a private room for 2 nights. Pros Large shower Fairly good location Cons Lots of additional costs for towels, shower after check out and holding on to bags Lots of rules including no guests (can be quite standard) also a fine if your caught washing your clothes and many others which were not mentioned before

good spacious hostel, a little out of the centre so quiet. When I stayed there were no other guests, only members of staff living there so bad for socialising. Asked to stay in the social area for a few hours after checking out but was told we couldn't, this was annoying.

we had a private room which was fine but could have been cleaner. Hostel gave us towels too which was a bonus. The hostel tried to charge for most other things though e.g. to leave your luggage after check out or even tried to charge us to stay at the hostel for a few hours before our bus. They also overcharged us for our stay and took days to refund us. They gave us false information about the entrance fees to tourist attractions and we wondered if they were trying to overcharge us for tours.

En mi estancia todo estuvo con buenas hostilidades por parte del personal que labora y los servicios no puedo quejarme, así que lo recomiendo ampliamente, para toda la gente viajera que quiera ir de visita, vacaciones a Oaxaca o ir a pasarla bien que mejor que hastal calenda chocolate. Ciao.

El personal se comporto como si no les gustara su trabajo, muy groseros. Te cobran por todo, en lo personal nos cobraron por dejar las maletas despues del checkout y al recogerlas estaban empapadas junto con la ropa dentro de las mismas por el almacen donde las habian puesto.Teniendo cuartos compartidos con 4 baños y regaderas deciden meter a los viajrtos a uno con 15 camas y un baño.

All in all it was good! The first night was very loud because of a family in the dorm but the second night was okay. The location is a little bit outside of the touristic area but that’s fine. You can't lock the dormitory but the entrance is guarded.

Chouette hostel! Personnel très sympathique. On s’y sent en sécurité et c’est propre! :)
