The architecture of the cloister is sober and humble in comparison to the spectacularity of the whole complex. In the refectory there is a huge monolithic communitary sink of a clear tequitqui lineage with flowery motifs. It is probable that the main piece of it was used, at some point in time, as a baptismal font.
