We stayed four nights at NaNa Vida and had an excellent experience. The staff could not have been more friendly or helpful. They were always around and willing to help make our stay comfortable. We stayed there over Christmas, and the hotel surprised all of the guests with a small gift under Christmas tree on Christmas morning. The hotel has a beautiful courtyard for breakfast and just hanging out. It was very quiet at night, other than the fireworks associated with Christmas that were going off everywhere in the city (which weren't a problem for sleeping). The hotel supplies ear plugs and a noise machine for guests, but it was among the more tranquil hotels we have stayed in, so they certainly weren't necessary. The location is great; it is close enough to the zócalo and other downtown Oaxaca attractions that you can get there with a short walk but far enough from the crowds that you don't have lots of street noise or noisy bars/restaurants to deal with. There were no barking dogs like you sometimes get in the city. The hotel felt very safe, and there was plenty of hot water in the shower (which can sometimes be an issue in hotels). The staff speak English, so you don't need to need to speak any Spanish to communicate. The Wifi was very good (we had no problems). Breakfast included hot chocolate and coffee/espressro drinks in addition to mixed breads and fruits (continental breakfast). More substantial options were available for purchase. We would definitely stay here again.
