Casa Santa Origen is a top notch boutique hotel. We enjoyed every aspect of our stay. The room was spacious, quiet, spotless and offered a great view. The grounds are beautiful and provide peace and calm in a busy Oaxaca. Restaurant was delicious, relaxing and relaxing. We enjoyed a late afternoon dip in the heated pool, as well. The hotel is approx 15 mins from El Centro, it is worth the inexpensive cab ride (approx $8 US each way) to be able to stay at this hotel. Finally, excellent staff,,,,warm, welcoming, professional and attentive. Check this place out, a hidden gem in Oaxaca
