Hotel Escondido Oaxaca, a Member of Design Hotels

除了床太軟，其他都挺好。

We loved the Hotel Escondido Oaxaca – the location was excellent and the Escondido was a welcome shelter at the end of each long day of touring. The city views from the rooftop bar were a huge bonus. The decor was contemporary, yet the colors and style drew directly from Oaxaca – the greens in the room were very much reminiscent of the cantera verde found virtually everywhere in Centro. We were pleased at how private our room was, despite the fact that our balcony room overlooked a shared courtyard. Of course, when the rooms were occupied below, sometimes it didn't register for the patio room guests that their voices would carry so clearly to the upper floors of the courtyard. Our balcony room was small and could have used a few more hooks, but there was ample, creative storage in the entryway closets. More hangers would have been useful, as we were at the hotel for a week. It rained nearly every afternoon and parts of most nights, which was fantastic due to room's open walls. It was also handy that we could close them, given the noise of the cantina across the street during Oaxaca Pride. I will note that Oaxaca is a city and overall is very noisy. If you're sensitive to noise, pack ear plugs! The hotel service was excellent, with a doorman greeting us at the front entrance 24/7 and a nearly invisible cleaning staff taking care of our room each day. We closed out our room credit card the night before due to the early hour of our departure, but didn't expect the time to register with the desk clerk. We were pleasantly surprised to find the doorman waiting outside our door at 4:15 a.m. to carry our bags out for our 4:30 a.m. hotel departure.

I am a Marriott ambassador so I chose this hotel to receive points and nights and the amenities of the advertised concierge lounge included as well as the breakfast included. Unfortunately none of these were up to the standards of a Marriott. The concierge lounge was actually a concierge "desk" that helped make reservations for restaurants. Not a lounge. Very big difference and I have let Marriot know because this is very misleading. Also their included breakfast is a cold one which is not what an elite member breakfast is usually. The reviews that mention noise are completely accurate. Need earplugs. Rooms very small if not the suites and quite claustrophobic with no place to put anything.
