About
Ticuchi Hostal - Oaxaca
Ticuchi Hostal is an adults-only guesthouse in the Oaxaca Historic Centre district, about 400 metres from Labastida Park. The property has a simple, social vibe: guests gather around the outdoor pool, in the lounge with board games, or at the karaoke corner. A shared kitchen and picnic area make it easy to cook and hang out, while organised tours and daily activities help you see more of the city.
Rooms range from 6-, 8-, and 10-bed mixed dorms (all with bunk beds and a shower) to a standard double room with a bathtub. Free Wi-Fi covers the whole building, and the 24-hour reception means you can arrive at any hour. There's no private parking, but the central location puts most Oaxaca sights within walking distance.

Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Shared bathrooms for most rooms — All dormitory rooms have a shower, but the standard double room also shares a bathroom (though it includes a bathtub). If you want an en-suite, this isn't it.
- No on-site parking — There's no private parking mentioned, so if you're driving, you'll need to find street parking or use a nearby lot.
- Adults-only policy — This is strict – no kids. Great for a quiet getaway, but not an option if you're travelling with family.
- Check-in window ends at 23:30 — While reception is 24-hour, official check-in is only between 14:00 and 23:30. Late arrivals may need to coordinate.
