View! What a breathtaking view! Very calm hostel, not a party one at all. It's nice to just wake up and have breakfast in the patio enjoying the lake view. You can go for a swim or rent the kayak.

Amazing location in Guatape. Stop reading reviews and just book it. I didn't see a better lake view for a location this close to the town. Plus a view of the rock, several small trails to walk, and a good restaurant really close. It's easy and cheap (2000-8000 COP) to get to town depending on if you wait for a bus, jeep, or take a tuc tuc. The view is absolutely amazing and you won't want to leave. Plus you can swim or kayak from the hostel. Great staff and breakfast is included.

I loved how wonderful the staff was, the delicious breakfast, and the awesome guests and volunteers i met while I was there. When there were only 4 people staying at the hostel on a quiet night, they made sure we each had our own room!

Arden

United States of America

The staff was very nice and answered any questions I had. The location was awesome as it's right next to the rock, and had its own access to the lake beneath it. It is a little far from town, but the staff is willing to call a jeep for you to take you into town. Besides, you're here for the lakes and rock, not for the town (although I highly recommend spending a day to explore the town as it's quite pretty as well!)

“Best valuable stay close to Piedra el Penol”
- • Leisure trip
- • Solo traveler
- • Stayed 1 night
- • Submitted from a mobile device
Nothing. If has to be picky, The room is a bit small, but by the time, there were only 2 people in the room, so it was ok. Only one bathroom on the second floor, it was a bit not enough but didn't wait for long for the bathroom. The night I stayed is Saturday night, there's a restaurant bar nearby partied with loud musics the whole night, but it was not hostel's problem. I believe besides of Saturday night, it should be very serene there.
Location! It's by the lake and with Piedra el Penol just in front. Can walk the historic trail up to Piedra which is the best way to go to Piedra, it's very enjoyable with birds singing and incredible view. Elly, the staff is the best, very helpful, also friendly to talk to. The hostel is well decorated with a chill and warm vibe. A terrace in front and also big belcony on the second floor outside of the dorm room. Perfect to enjoy the beautiful view. It is very clean and with hot shower And a kitchen Strong WiFi, how strong? I suddenly got internet signal when walking on the historic trail to Piedra. They have a kayak that guests can borrow for free, a shame I didn't get to use it because there were other guests using it. But it's quite a nice bonus.

Amazing place to stay. Quiet and relaxing, but just a short walk from the main road where the busses to and from Medellín stop, as well as the tuktuks to the town. Amazing view, has its own little bay where you can swim and kayak. Good breakfast (3 options!). If I could have given the staff an 11/10, I would have. Alejandro is amazing. Incredibly friendly and sweet and willing to help with everything. He arranged wake boarding lessons for us as well. 100% recommend staying here. Cant wait to go back!

In our 7 months of traveling this was one of our favourites! Alejandro and dona Leticia are amazing! They are so sweet and they really make the atmosphere. The hostel is perfectly located, directly at a peaceful piece of the lake. You can swim, use the hostel canoe and enjoy the sunset, while enjoying the music which is Alejandro playing. Local restaurants and a small shop are nearby (5 min walking) and so is the famous rock (10 min).
