“Comfortable stay”
Very clean and satisfactory basement rooms, in the home of a welcoming and helpful Colombian couple. The beds are very comfortable. Cool and well-ventilated with really good air-conditioning. The house also has a lounge area on the ground floor and we felt very welcome relaxing there.

“Very overpriced but nice helpful staff”
The hostel was very secure, in fact there was a security guard present at all times and it was not possible to enter or exist the building independently. Also the staff was very friendly and helpful.
