Directions

From the Oaxaca city airport:
You have to take collective transport, usually a 'van' transport. Tickets are sold inside the airport and they will know the location ('Mina' street between 'Diaz Ordaz' and 'Mier y Teran' streets).


From the first class bus station (main bus station, ADO and OCC buses which come from all over the country):
Take a Taxi (at any hour, the taxi will cost APPROXIMATELY $3 USD -about $35 to $40 MXN pesos-, it depends on your negotiation skills and also your spanish knowledge).
Other way is to take public-urban transport (bus - aprox $ 4.50 MXN pesos) two blocks walking from the bus station to 'Avenida Juárez'. The bus has to be 'ARTEAGA', 'CENTRAL DE ABASTOS' and/or 'CENTRAL' direction. This would be the easiest and the cheapest way of getting to the hostel because it would leave you at the hostel door. Of course, problems may arise if you have too many or too heavy baggage to get to the 'Avenida Juárez'. You should tell the chauffeur (in spanish) that you need to take off at 'Mina' street on the 'Diaz Ordaz' junction cross c
