Liked: This was an all around great stay. Although most people did go out and party, it was still very quiet to sleep even on a weekend night. The staff is excellent, and speaks both english and spanish. I would not hesitate to stay here again, or recommend it to friends!

Disliked: I have no complaints about this hostel. and no, i don't work for them

11 June 2010 Mikal would recommend this property

Liked: Great place to stay! Popular with good atmosphere without being a party wreck. Giant kitchen with microwave, high speed internet, WIFI and plenty of terminals. BBQ every Sunday which looked generous (for 12000). Plenty of lockers in public area which makes them more secure - you need your own lock. Wide screen TV, beer on sale. Near to metro and Exito supermarket. Also has Mega Pizza nearby. Good value laundry - 10000 for a load. Ignore nearby laundromat which is 8000 per kilo! Very safe area. If I was going back to Medellin, this is where I would stay again.

Disliked: Mikal left no negative feedback.

Jason Jobling

11 January 2010 Jason would recommend this property

Liked: We had a double en suite room & while there was nothing in terms of wardrobes / cupboards or even hooks for your clothes, it was a clean spacious & quiet room. far in excess of what I expected for hostel accommodation. the en suite was clean too. The owner of the hostel himself was extremely friendly & helpful. One of the guys on the desk was also helpful but we did find the other staff slightly 'attitudey' . I thought it was because I was english, my friend though it was because she was a woman & our other friend because he was colombian. we realised after chatting they were like that to us all. but this did not spoil our stay, it perhaps made us not ask any further questions of them though.location is fine & a short walk from a big supermarket and 20 mins from bars & restaurants. make sure you bring your map with you as it is in a suburban street which all look sthe same when you first get there.fast reliable internet too. great place to stay.

Disliked: Jason left no negative feedback.
