I have now stayed twice at Hotel Don Nino, and both have been excellent experiences. For the cost, the hotel is safe, clean, and well located. The hotel is located across the street from El Llano, a lively plaza that is always bustling with daily life, great food vendors, and in general, a lovely place to people watch. There is a pharmacy across the plaza, an OXXO (convenience store) down the street, and a couple of banks nearby if you need them. You aren't smack dab in the middle of the historical section of Oaxaca, but it's a quick 5-7 minute walk away, which is quite nice since it is lively at night. You'll find Hotel Don Nino a little more tranquil. Taxis are consistently driving past, and the hotel will organize a tour for you. I know pizza may not be on our mind when you're in Oaxaca, but I highly recommend the pizza t the restaurant downstairs. It is so freaking delicious.
