    It's quite remote from everything you might want to see or do so you'll need transport. If you're not scared of Bogota's traffic there are rental bicycles opposite. Next door is a popular take-away and at the corner is a good bakery but that's all the choice you have nearby. So if you just want a place to sleep that's perfectly fine.

    Very cheap so very basic hostel. The lady is working very hard to keep it clean, the guys of the reception are also taking care of this and they are all very friendly and helpfull. Thanks to the staff the place has a good atmosphere.

    It's a pretty bare bones place. Don't expect any really spectacular facilities. There appear to be some long-term tenants who live and work in Bogota - not that it's a really bad thing, but just don't expect to meet a lot of travelers.

    The location is pretty close to public transportation. The staff seemed nice enough, though I didn't interact with them much. They were kind enough to let me check in around 2 a.m. They allowed me to store my bags there after check-out. I slept comfortably. I think it was clean - didn't spend much time there.

    The kitchen was small and not the cleanest, and the staff wasn't very sure about the prices some days they asked for more money, i had to argue with them in order to get a towel because i didn't have one.

    It's a good and quiet spot. Great for the weekend if you want to be close to the party zone but not in the party zone. 24/7 door service so no need for keys.

    One kitchen divided on too many people. The kitchen becomes occupied all the time. No room to have anything in the refrigerator. Some of the longstayers most likely steal food, my food was stolen, and it could not be a mixup as what I had in the fridge was unique. The bathroom was not cleaned often enough. It was usually dirty. Some of the people staying there, which I assume are longstayers, have no idea how to clean up after themselves. You get no towel and no soap

    The price is very cheap. The location is decent. The rooms are well isolated Warm shower

    Not clean, it had an awful smell, the hotel and the facilities. No hot water plus the rooms did not have blackouts so the light could filter inside and would not let you rest.

    Expensive for being cheap and not dark enough.

    THEY NEVER CHANGE THE BEDDINGS! NEVER STAY THERE!!! dark, smelly rooms, moldy black bathrooms. The hostel is not AT ALL how the published photos look. The clerk Habit is the worst "customer service" ever, dishonest and unprofessional. When I got there, there was no one to do the check in, 25mins later, he came and said keep waiting I will "clean" the bathroom then the trash then I'll call you. He kept calling me love, cutie, etc. Never gave me a tour of the hostel, nor gave me the wifi password or anything, and on top of that he charged my friend for a towel and then we found out the hostel does not offer that service, what a HORRIBLE PERSON, during his evening shift the street door was always open/unlocked. The other clerk kept the door locked during the day, making everyone wait till he was around to go out, plus he kept walking in the room and chasing after me also when I got out of the shower, didn't let me finish getting ready and talking loud in the morning whilst seeing the other roommates sleeping, just to find out whether I was staying longer! 1st floor shower is cold, 2nd floor shuts down after 1min, 3rd floor burns you up, all the bathrooms have black mould all over and very noisy useless extractors. Customers came and left using the same beddings!

    Nothing

    The receptionist, Abid, was so helpful. I got here past midnight and he was very kind to show me everything there was in the hostel as if it was daytime. He answered a lot of questions I had about Bogota kindly as well. 10/10 service
