The truly authentic Colombian experience. Incredible staff. The owner Thomas and the manager, Lilly, along with the other employees, do an exceptional job making you feel at home. It happened to be my birthday while I was there, and along with another person who had a birthday, we had an amazing impromptu party. Also, the hostel coordinated a homestay with a program they run called Call me Mami. I stayed at a nearby house with a family of 10 orphans, this experience was on a whole new level, and I would recommend it for anyone who wants to see how an authentic Colombian family lives. I have been traveling the world for over 40 years, and I can truly say this was one of the top travel experiences of my entire life.

The room was exactly as described and from the photo. We were really well located and although there was some noise (friday/saturday night) it stopped really fast and we could sleep easily. The breakfast was OUTSTANDING. They have a menu from which you select options. And each day the fresh fruit juice and the fruits change, so it super nice when staying a few days. The staff has been incredibly friendly, and all really thrive for providing an excpetional service. Special thanks to Miguel and Jesus!

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

    This hostel is definitely the best hostel we have stayed in during our trip around South America. It felt like a hotel and our room was cleaned every day which was so lovely. We also did the fruit tasting and cocktail making class during our stay which was so good and exceeded expectations. I would highly recommend staying here if you are going to Medellin. Great location near to all the tour pick ups and loads of nice restaurants close by to choose from. The restaurant for breakfast was also really good. I just can’t fault it.

    Great location, safe and very clean hostel. They clean the room every day, offered shower towels + towels for the pool. In this building there is a small gym, heated pool on the rooftop and laundry - while in the other building is where all activities and parties happen. Better to stay in this one and go there whenever you feel like socialising. Quiet at night, comfy beds with curtains.

    This is probably the best hostel we have stayed at in our time through almost 50 countries. The facilities were great, we had laundry delivered back to our room the morning after we put it in. There was lots of information about different tours, which were all easy to book at the travel counter. The room was massive, the bed was so comfortable, the shower was amazing. It is on the edge of El Poblado so it's only a short walk to nightlife but being a few blocks away means it's safe and quiet. I would comfortably live here!

    Great location which is about 10 mins from metro, easy to get a taxi to the bars, restaurants in walking distance, but most importantly very safe! Shops about 5-10 mins walk away too. The hostel has great kitchen facilities which are kept very clean. We had a private room which was large/spacious and had a nice bathroom.

    The Hostel has a great terasse as a public common area. The kitchen at the terasse is hugh, so that is a very comfortable place to cook. It also is a great Co-Working space or just to hang out. The area is very chilled. The Hostel is located next to some sport courts so that it seems like a quite safe area. It is close to Laureles, a good area to stay in Medellín. The people staying there were open and friendly. They are offering a cheap laundry service.
