I loved the apartment. It was quiet and calm, but very close to great museums, the Zocalo, restaurants, cafes, parks, and fun street markets. I strongly recommend this property.

This property was as centrally located as you can get. Perfect for all Centro activities. No frills but everything you need. Very secure as well. We enjoyed our stay!!

Thank you Thomas for taking the time to review our property. We are glad to know that you enjoyed it. You are welcome anytime!
The check in process was smooth and easy. While the unit was not dirty, a bit more attention to the bathroom would help. The shower curtain was a bit moldy. I’m sensitive to mold, most people would not notice. The units are safe and you could not ask for a better location. It’s right where you want to be. I’d stay again and would recommend it to anyone who wants to visit Oaxaca.

Thank you Porfirio for your review and for pointing out the barhroom curtain. We will check that out. You are welcome anytime!
I think it was such an amazing little place to find during my stay in Oaxaca, especially since I was in town for a wedding. While the place is located off a busy street, this place is tucked behind a shop where you have a private little place to reset from the busy city. The property manager(s) were all lovely and great with communication. I had some troubleshooting with my arrival and departure, and they were very accommodating to my needs. I would stay again!

Thank you Dominique for staying with us. It was a pleasure to have you and we are glad to hear that you enjoyed your stay with us. Please come back soon!
I stayed four weeks at the property - three while doing some intensive Spanish classes and one just to play tourist. The location is fantastic - basically a few blocks from lots of activities, making it super-convenient but quieter than anything closer. Kitchen is basic but all you need to prep some meals at "home", while there are plenty of restaurants of all types and price ranges nearby. Our host was very responsive and helpful for the few questions we had during the stay. I'd definitely recommend it for a stay in the city!

Best Location, But...
Couldn’t ask for a better location in the heart of the colonial downtown of Oaxaca. The apartment was perfect. However while WiFi was included, parking was not. The parking amenity was in reference to public parking garages. Needs to be corrected because a parking space on the property is not included. And finding an affordable, 24 hour accessible, garage that has long term parking was not easy over the Spring Break festivities.

Arturo, it was nice to have you and I hope we can have you again in the near future. Thank you for your kind words about the apartment. I apologize about the confusion regarding the parking. It was noted that the parking was provided by others at a fee but I would agree it was not presented well upon your reservation. Thank you for pointing this out to us and I have corrected it. I have returned a portion of your rent for the inconvenience.
My partner and I had a very positive experience staying at Casita Camila for 6 nights. The location is excellent, I don't think you can get any more central. It's a sweet 2 block walk to Plaza Santo Domingo. The location is excellent. We were able to walk to all of the mercados in town, to the Zocalo, and were near many cultural institutions. (Our trip ended a bit prematurely due to the pandemic, but we still loved our stay.) The suite was very comfortable with hot water for showers and a big 10 gallon supply of drinking water waiting for us. The bed was very comfortable and the apartment was very clean. The area felt really safe and it was very easy to get in and out of the building. Selene was a most excellent host and she gave us lots of tips on what to see and do and how to get to the Tlocolula mercado on Sundays. She was also very quick to respond to any questions we had via text. We will definitely be returning to Oaxaca and we will definitely be returning to Casita Camila.

We are glad to hear you enjoyed Oaxaca. Thank you Jesse for your kind words and we hope to have you two back soon.
This was a lovely place to live for our 2+ week stay in Oaxaca. The apartment is well kept and had every thing we needed. The location is in the thick of things, but the street out front is not a bus route so is pedestrian friendly and fairly quiet.
Having a kitchen allowed us to buy some of the wonderful stuff for sale in the nearby markets and make our own meals.
The bed was comfortable and the sheets and towels were of good quality.
When we return to Oaxaca we would definitely choose to stay here again.

This was our 2nd stay in these apartments, and as before, the apartment was very clean and comfortable. Its conveniently located for most attractions in oaxaca city, and I would recommend staying here, and hopefully we will return soon.

Great little apartment!
We spent 4 nights here during a recent visit to Oaxaca. The apartment was clean and tidy. It was very easy to get to from the airport via taxi and walking distance from many attractions within the city. Adriana and her sister were wonderful hosts! I would recommend staying here to anyone visiting Oaxaca City.
