The Ollin has most of those wonderful Oaxacan calling cards: characterful rooms imbued with a tangible Mexican flavor, gourmet breakfasts, hands-on staff, and color and interest in every corner. Raising the yardstick even higher is the courtyard swimming pool, big roof terrace and lovely Oaxacan handicrafts sprinkled around. All that and they keep the room prices pretty reasonable.
