Richard best staff
Richard and manuel Were the best staff. Viajero runs some incredible tours such as comuna 13. The room wa always very clean except that insects would come in when the window was open, this is natural for the city I believe.

Great location, super friendly staff and most importantly for me, clean. It was a little loud but that’s too be expected from any hostal. I got a private room on the 3rd floor so furthest away from both the rooftop bar and the restaurant on the ground floor. Would recommend and would stay again

Great staff and a great location, very cool rooftop Terrace with hot tubs! Unfortunately the walls are paper thin and you hear everything happens in the hall and sometimes between rooms. Ditto with the windows so you hear a lot of what's going on on the streets. If you sleep easily I think you'll love the place, if you are a light sleeper like me you may want to choose ear plugs or bring white noise machine or White Noise app on your phone, or choose a more remote hostel a bit more outside of the main areas. Amazing staff though. Really cool place.

Large/active hostel in Manila, Poblado
I stayed for one night. The hostel is large with an active clientele. Large, modern, and clean open spaces. Rooftop with socializing and jacuzzis (there isn't really a view though). I was unable to participate, but there are many planned activities. Walking distance to nightlife areas, many restaurants in area; area is very safe and has everything you need.

This is the best Hostel accommodation I have encountered in Colombia. The facility is modern. The staff and the guest energy is great. The weekend dance and parties on the roof terrace are superb. Overall excellent.

Great hostel for travelers. Clean & safe and lots of common areas to hang out. Not a great place to work if you have phone calls—they play music right near the coworking space, and even in private rooms there were parties in the hallways during the day. Great vibes and fun hostel, just not if you need to study/work!

Best shower i’ve used in a hostel in Colombia. Super clean rooms, lockers come with locks, comfortable bed pods that offer a lot of privacy. The room I was in faced the main street and was a bit loud all night.

Deze hostel is een aanrader als je in Medellin bent. In een veilig omgeving met veel restaurantjes en op loop afstand van de metro. Het personeel is erg aardig en doen de best om jou aan de zin te maken. Ontbijt is erg lekker met verschillende alternatieven en ook in de avond hebben ze lekkere gerechten. De privé kamer is prima met comfortabele bedden en de grootte van de badkamer is ook goed. Geen airco, alleen 2 ventilatoren die niet in de nacht aan kunnen door de herrie. Jammer want het was erg warm. De rooftop is ook erg leuk om zowel overdag als in de avond te zijn met muziek en een bar voor de drankjes. De gemeenschappelijke ruimte is ook erg gezellig met een bank, keuken, koelkasten, een tuin een en gesloten plek om te werken met je laptop. Enig minpunt is het geluid van buiten: het raam is niet dubbel en je hoort werkelijk alles wat er op straat gebeurt. Soms leek het dat wij op straat sliepen hahaha. Maar al met al een aanrader!

Cooler Vibe! Klare Empfehlung
Das Personal ist super freundlich, aufmerksam und hilfsbereit. Es gibt viele Aktivitäten bei denen man sich anschliessen kann wenn man will. Die Rooftopbar ist richtig cool, das Privatzimmer war sauber und das Frühstück köstlich. Zudem ist die Lage super.
