All the staff gave me always the best service, genuine, kind, profesional. thanks to Anna and all the staff. you guys are the best

This is the best hostal for solo travelers/backpackers. It has good facilities, welcoming staff, a lively atmosphere, and free breakfast. Maybe the other hostals around Poblado have a bigger name, but those hostals feel like a hotel-Purple Monkey is better. I will only stay here whenever I come to Medellin.

Staff attentive, Clean spaces and nice hammocks, Good Showers, Decent Breakfast, Good Location, Good Laundry Service.

The hostel has very nice common places to know others travellers. Good location. I recommend it!!

Breakfast on location, great HOT showers, nice beds and overall clean facility, lots of chances to make friends with tourist visiting and practice your 2nd or 3rd language.

Clean, good breakfast, nice kitchen to cook in, ok water pressure in showers, under bed lockers have power socket to lock things away and charge them (not seen this before, clever idea).

Very helpful staff. Nice place with a buzz to it. Basic but clean facilities. Excellent laundry service

Nice hostel in a good location, with good breakfast and laundry service

Good location and nice atmosphere. Bar on the roof was nice. The showers are also one of the better ones we had in a long long time. The staff is very friendly and helpfull.

Very clean all round, staff were nice and hostel is right in the centre of poblado
