Nice property with great prices for being in the central social district of Medellin where things are usually expensive. Staff at the front desk are very helpful and friendly. The only thing is there’s a lot of music and noise on Friday and Saturday night from the clubs on the street across the hotel. Overall great stay at this hotel!

Amazing place for the price. Chimba!
Very clean. There’s people cleaning all the time. The kitchen is basic but has a toaster oven and a gas stovetop. I think you can drink the water from the tap I’ve been doing that. The private room was nice it has a big fan and a tv with cable channels mostly in spanish. The staff don’t speak much English but they are really friendly. The shower has great water pressure and not skimpy with the water. It’s a simple place but very safe and clean. One this is it’s in the clubbing area which is really loud at night (very safe) but loud. Bring good earplugs

I would like my money back! Expedia did not notify me that the room had shared bathroom and toilet. And neither give me option between with or without these. When I got there and got so disappointed, I tried to cancel, they said the check in date already passed so I could not cancel or get my money back. I had to book and pay a whole other hotel. NOT with expedia anymore though!

If you're thinking of staying here, I want to warn you,"DON'T do it"! Unless, you can sleep through a hurricane, and/or don't care about getting a decent night's rest. I've been to many hostels, and this had to be the worst. The bathrooms were miniscule, the showers dirty, with no shelf to put your clothes, the place constantly smelled like cigarettes, as the smoking area was at the back door, which was left open so the breeze carried the smoke in. My room had a large window into the hallway, with 2 curtains that barely covered it, and let a ton of light in. There's a club that was basically attached to my back wall, which blasted music till the wee hours every night, and you could hear and almost feel the chairs moving on their floor...it was a disaster, and a mistake!

The hostel is very central and the dormitories are nice but the four bed room has no window and there is nothing to take a rest or chill. Staff is very friendly and helpful. If you need just something to sleep it is fine but to hangaround not the best.

First of all this hotel is in the “Zona Rosa” is crowded with noisy loud businesses near and is not for comfortness and an enjoyable area. This is for party people to like to hang out loudly! Sorry not a good place to stay!

Sleeping in a discobar
We booked two nights but left after the first one because of the loud music from the bar/pubs around the hostel. Also, the towels were dirty and old. When checking out the manager asked us to pay an extra 19% VAT which should only be applied to Colombian citizens or people staying over 60 days, after a small chat she didn't charge it, be aware that they will try to charge you this extra 19% to your bill.

Nice hostel but didn't like location
A very well priced hostel in the centre of El Poblado. The staff were extremely kind and helpful. It's a great place if you love parties and noise as all the bars are literally on the doorstep and music doesn't stop until the early hours. Not so good if you prefer quiet like us! We had a room right at the back which was unfortunate as guests would use it to talk until the early hours and we could hear everything :( a good hostel and a good price but I wouldn't chose again if I knew how noisy it would be.

There were some problems with the reservation, so they had to give me a room in new house that was under construction, so conditions were a little messy. But the neighbourhood is great for night life and parting, but the hostel is a bit too close too some large discotheques so it is quite loud at night

Well located budget hotel
The staff is very professional and on top of things. They monitor who goes in and out, and make all guests register with their IDs. Unfortunately, you must pay $10 for a guest to visit your room. It is a place with plenty of young backpackers visiting Columbia from various countries. The setup of the common areas makes it hard to really get a complete hostel feeling, but I did meet some people. There are better hostels in El Poblado nd throughout Medellin for comparable prices. They have a small fridge where you can buy drinks. There is a small kitchen area. They have a variety of rooms, from dorms to minimal non-AC rooms without bathrooms to quite nice two-person rooms with frig, AC, and shower/bath. The latter are best. I was stuck with the last "minimal" room. It was sufficient, clean, but not too convenient.

Pretty good
Hostel lleras was extremely clean and comfortable, as well as in a great location. The only downside was a lack of atmosphere.
