Greg Poland

Experience I enjoy hanging out with otber guests and staff

Esther Colombia

It was super close to the tranvía which takes you downtown in a few minutes. The location feels like a small neighborhood with a local flare. It is very safe.

Bethynia United States of America

Secure location, frendly staff. Comfy room (however due to overbooking we stayed in a 4 people dorm room). The kitchen was clean and breakfast good. There were 2 showers available, one with cold and one with hot water. Internet connection was good.

Ieva Germany

quiet nice hostel with 2 dorms and 3 private rooms, maximum 16 people if it’s full. The owners (Alexandra, Juan and Alexia) are super nice and help you like you are their family. Breakfast is a good deal! I enjoyed my stay there. 100% recomendable. (ps. the barbershop in the front of the street near the corner is very good too, i had my hair cut their)

Chih Taiwan

The staff was lovely! I ended up staying here for a three weeks. The beds are comfortable, the rooms ate spacious, and everything is always spotlessly clean.

Charlotte United States of America

THERE WAS A FAN IN THE ROOM. I saw a lot of other reviews said there wasn't, but they seem to have fixed this. It's a good temperature in the rooms. The family that runs it is super sweet. They really want to make sure you have a fun time and they help you plan your day. Seems like a safe area and it's close to the tram that brings you to the metro.

Anonymous United States of America

So nice and relaxing, most beautiful staff/owners highly recommend staying here. Third hostel I stayed in Medellin, by far the best

Anonymous Mexico

Really friendly and helpful staff, good WiFi, spacious room (we had a private double), excellent kitchen, easy to get into the city centre

James United Kingdom

The hosts were really awesome. So friendly from the minute we arrived, and go out of their way to help with advice etc about things to do in the local area and possible day trips etc. Kitchen has good facilities for all to use. Different chill areas. Hot water in the shared shower. Good location between different parts of the city but away from the main buzz / noise. Overall great value and a good choice if you want a social option.

  • Is it quiet at night?

    Yes, most of the time, you can have a nice night here. But the house has its own life, that means, you can started to be a friend of other guests and you guys stablish the hour to go to bed. Our logic rule is: If just one guest is sleeping after 12 pm the party have to move, to the back yard or to a close bar.
