It's a really good hostel to stay in, nice environment, the bed was very comfortable and the rooms have a really good size. Breakfast 9 out of 10!!! I would recommend a reduction in food prices just a little.

Santi

Very nice chil place, no breakfast, but they serve it in the restaurant for additional 3 dolars. Kitchen to use, enough bathrooms, cool stuff.

Great location (close to town). The terrace is lovely and the staff were all very friendly and helpful. The facilities were clean and comfortable.

Mila

Clean room and all the information provided at hostel. The food at Thai restaurant at 3rd floor was super good.

Sarahhuang

The place is clean, quiet, and in a great location. There is a nice garden in the front entrance and flowers inside the building that added a welcoming ambiance. The property has an excellent restaurant and bar on the top floor, and a great view of the lake. Perfect for morning coffee. The staff were amazing, very helpful and they can speak English. The rooms were very nice and clean and organized, with huge lockers to store your belongings- bring your own lock! We also enjoyed the fact that the hostel has a relationship with Getaway Colombia rental and your company. Depending on the duration of your booking you can get discounts and perks on rentals and tours! We enjoyed a few hours exploring the water ways of Guatapé via kayaks.

Our room wasn’t ready for us at check in time (1pm) and they didn’t even apologize. They just told us to wait which wasn’t an option since we only had one day in Guatapé and the hostal is located far away from downtown and the main attractions. For the same como money we could have stayed at a better place way closer to downtown
The room was okay but the hostal location isn’t the best and the staff wasn’t friendly at all.

It was a bit expensive. Shared 4-bed room cost the same like private room for 2 at other destination. But Guatapé is tourist destination so that is the reason. I dont complaining just saying. Although It was nice stay.
Location was perfect, also breakfast. The view from the terrace is really nice and the hostel was clean.

We stayed in a lakeview double room, which was great in the morning. Nice view and you hear the birds. The room was clean and the shower was the best in 6 weeks Colombia: warm, spacious and comfortable! Bed was not as hard as many hostels have and we also had a small balcony. Furthermore, they thought about details like a small tower to dry your hands. The room was 120/night, really worth it! THe hostel has a bar with friendly priced drinks and a Thai restaurant which was great! The seats on the bar/restaurant also have a great view on the lake. This is also a nice place to meat other travelers. Furthermore, in the morning they service great breakfast voor 10.000 pesos, including coffee and a juice. The location of the hostel is a 3-5 minute walk from the centre or the boulevard street. That's perfect because you're not in the busy streets.

We had researched the hostel chose it as we read that the standard double rooms are upstairs and very nice. We booked a standard double - but that is not what we got. We were given a large dorm room (albeit to ourselves) on the ground floor that was directly off the kitchen. This was very noisy until well after 11pm.
It was clean
