"Breakfast, they helped when I could not speak to get it from the kitchen. Also I left my GoPro. I flew from Perreira back to Medellin to pick it up. Then to Bogota back to Chicago :). AMAZING service!"

9 / 10Outstanding·Aug 2026
Located in a very nice area and close to the metro. The place is really cool and the staff very friendly and informative.
The corridor light gets through the top part of the wall that is made of clear glass. That woke me up a few times in the middle of the night.

High volume hostel where you can easily meet others. There are several shared spaces which are nice. Restaurants and cafés are near by. Breakfast was free
This touristic district is safe and expensive. The top beds have no fresh air and mine was smelly. This was the 1st place in 4 months that did not give free towels Hot water was fluctuating and not very hot

The showers were good. Great simple breakfast. Coffee, tea, juice, scrambled eggs and fruit slices.
Bedsheets always came loose from the mattress. My bed light didn't work and the individual bed fan didn't work either.

Basic accommodation with the bare minimum. Was not terrible. roof area is very chill and relaxing. because there wasn’t a lot of people it was quiet. free breakfast was nice. location is perfect.
Basic accommodation. if you just need a bed it’s fine. roof area is nice. not very lively or any activities. didn’t know there was free breakfast at first because they didn’t mention it.
