About
Hotel Danibaan
Hotel Danibaan occupies a classic Oaxacan building centered around a leafy courtyard, where the architecture and garden furniture set a relaxed tone. The public spaces are tidy and quiet, and the shared kitchen and snack vending machine give the place a practical, hostel-adjacent feel without sacrificing comfort.
Rooms are unusually spacious for the price, with flat-screen TVs, dressing areas, and ironing facilities. Guests consistently note the comfortable beds and strong air conditioning. The team is the standout here, rated 9.5 for staff, and frequently praised for early check-ins and arranging transport. Breakfast is served in a bright room and is described as fresh and well-presented, though it isn't included in the base rate.
