My stay at the hotel was a bit mixed. While I appreciated the historical charm of the old building and the comfortable beds, I encountered significant issues with room security and an unsatisfactory response from the staff regarding my concerns. The rooftop terrace was nice for breakfast, and the central location made exploring the city easy, but the noise level in downtown Oaxaca was a downside. The overall experience left me feeling uneasy about the value for money.

Parador Monte Carmelo is an excellent choice for anyone looking to experience Oaxaca, combining a peaceful location with charming accommodations. The spacious and clean rooms felt like a home away from home, and the friendly staff made my mornings delightful. However, not every aspect was perfect, as I encountered an unfortunate incident of theft at another hotel, highlighting the importance of securing valuables. Overall, Parador Monte Carmelo stands out for its comfort and warmth.
