It gets loud as you are on the main strip of Poblado. The staff members are excellent, friendly and helpful! The private bathroom was good.
United States of AmericaThe room was spacious. The bathroom clean. Towel were included and the mattress was super comfortable. It's located right in the middle of all the action and going to restaurants was super super easy. The staff was super helpful and accommodating. I didn't use it but they have a large kitchen and laundry service. I would totally come back here. Great value
FranceI stayed in la playa on several trips to Medellin. The hostel is extremely cozy and has a "feeling home" atmosphere. There is a fully equipped kitchen and the best shower I had in Colombia. Alberto and Dani are always there to help you with anything. Definitely highly recommending this hostel to anyone staying in Medellin, you won't regret it.
GermanyThe place was very good with chill vibes and the staff was the best. Especially Alberto.
ColombiaI have to mention Daniela is an amazing person, in general all the staff was really great, they did it all to make you feel at home!

The first time we saw the house where La Playa is locate, it was literally in ruins. But we saw the potential and decided to undertake the challenge of transforming it into a wonderful space. We had to rebuild it completely: plumbing, electrical system, knock down walls, change the windows and planting the garden. Now, every time someone walks on La Playa, his smile shows that we achieved our goal.
