Liked: I liked the nice atmosphere of Andanamayi. It has friendly staff (the employees are single mums), free WiFi, lockers in the dorm and lots of books. And the hammocks in the garden are great to read and relax as long as the wheather in Bogota is fine. Furthermore it feels absolutely safe and secure. Would definitely recommend it.

Disliked: The dorm is quite big but it was never fully booked when I stayed here. Could do with a travel organisation desk but I'm not sure if this is usual in Colombian hostels (since this is my first).

Liked: Good location, close to the historical centre in a nice neighbourhood. Very clean rooms and lovely courtyards with hammocks. Free thee, coffee and wifi all day long.

Disliked: Depending on the weather, rooms can be a little cold, but with a warm water bottle (free to use) this shouldn·t be a problem.

Liked: The breakfast was good Location was easy to get to all the Bogota sites Staff were friendly Good shower

Disliked: Staff didn´t speak very good English, and weren´t able to suggest an English tutor or school even though I´d emailed in advance about Spanish courses and they said they could sort on arrival. The hostel was very cold. No heating and Bogota was very cold at the time

Liked: Rarely give anything 5 stars, but this hostel was wonderful. I loved exploring the city, but even the hostel itself with the courtyards and hammocks had a distinctly Colombian feel. It was very safe and the staff was wonderfully kind. Could stay for months there.
