    I liked everything.

    I liked the place very much. It felt relaxing being there surrounded by plants listening to the sounds of birds. It was calm and quiet. I liked the room with the fan and the lights around my bed. I like the host/hostess too. They were warm and welcoming. I liked the neighborhood as well.

    House is about 50-years old, so don't expect modernity - simple but absolutely fine. Colombian middle class loves dogs, so there is some occasional barking in neighbourhood. Construction pallets and oil barrels are bit overused as furniture.

    (I stayed 3 weeks in single-bed Azulejo room) Great location, very close to massive supermarket, metro stations and 20 min walk to Volador hill for great views of city or nature walks. Safe area (with common sense). I could watch variety of colourful birds even from my bed all day - perfect (Azulejo, means blue bird). Peaceful. Excellent helpful cheerful staff. Kitchen works well. Terrace to relax. Not a party place but plenty of opportunities to socialise with likeminded guests too. Great sleep. This is the best place for your money.

    Wall hooks in the rooms. We need somewhere to hand drying towels and/or rain jackets after a downpour. Instead we used the TV as the drying rack.

    Our second stay at this hostel. Very comfortable and clean with a great kitchen that has enough kitchenware to ensure you can cook easily and quickly. This hostel is super quite as well. Great location as it’s right in between two metro stations which are about 5-7 mins walk away. Wifi is great . If we return to Medellin, this is where we’re booking.

    Hooks - for drying towels after showering and any wet clothing (after a downpour) is a must. Pity there weren’t any in the rooms.

    The main selling point for us before booking was how well located this hotel/hostel is to either metro station Suramericana or Estadio. It made arriving and getting about that much simpler. Supermarkets are close by as well, with everything you’d want to buy to cook in there kitchen. If you’re into eating out, then the tacky 70th avenue is close to Estadio with plenty of local options. The room we had (Perezoso) for the week was super comfortable and clean. Great value. Pillows were firm, bed was comfy and noise from other rooms was minimal. Bathrooms were cleaned daily, along with the kitchen. The kitchen had pretty much everything you’d need to cook your own meals. The staff were super friendly and helpful. Long story short we’d stay here again in a snap.

    The rooms are a bit bare, but for that kind of price, it's hard to complain.

    Fantastic value, the benefit of common areas and a kitchen while having a private room. The location is quite nice too, in a safe neighborhood full of shops and restaurants, just a couple blocks from the metro.

    Stayed in the deluxe double room which is actually a self contained apartment separate from the main hostel. It has a kitchenette, lavaropa and clothes hanging area and a table to eat at but doesn't really have a balcony as its on the ground floor. We still got a key for access to the main hostel area, terrace etc. Everything felt really secure. The staff are super responsive and friendly. Perfect area in Estadio - really quiet residential area but close to metro stations, big supermarkets and walking distance from calle 70 which is pretty wild in the evening if you're into that. We stayed for 10 days!

    Wasn’t much of a vibe. It felt more like a hotel or long term accommodation. Just depends what you are looking for! Staff do not speak English so Google translate will be your friend if you do not have Spanish.

    Great location next to shops & some restaurants while being away from the tourist trap of El Poblado - near the Metro but also walkable to Central. Kitchen & bathrooms were very tidy. We ended up extending our stay 1 night but had to move rooms (& floors) - kitchen really well equipped on L2, bed VERY hard, saw almost no one. Roof access on L3, bed much better, kitchen not as well stocked, more hostel-y vibes. Not a social hostel! But enjoyed the stay.

    Loud neighbour (of the building nearby) and since windows are always open you will hear everything (not loud in general but noise happens occasionally). Can't blame accommodation. A couple of hangers in the wardrobe would be great.

    The owner is welcoming lady, location seems safe and there are supermarkets in the area. There is well equipped kitchen so you can cook. Room is just as described and spacious, huge wardrobe, bathroom is shared. I almost didn't see neighbours of the floor. Fast wifi. Location is good, few minutes away from Metro branch. There was HOT shower - apparently random thing in Columbia Kitchen and Bathrooms are kept clean all the time.

    Wish there had been two hooks on the back of the room door to hang our wet towels.

    We really enjoyed staying here and felt quite at home. The kitchen facilities are fantastic and everything is clean and spacious. Harold the manager is extremely helpful and made our travelling experience easier. There is a pleasant vibe, especially on the lower floor where we were entertained by the hotel's mascot Bruno. We admire their commitment to being more sustainable. Overall, a very pleasant and safe experience, highly recommend it. This accomodation is in a fantastic location, close to a supermarket and metro.

    Sometimes the water would back up and emit an odor from the bathroom after rainy days, but nothing too terrible. The pillow was a bit to large for a stomach sleeper like myself. The area around does have quite a few homeless people sleeping, my guess is that there's a public park near and people sort of run off from Ave 70 to sleep which makes night walking a bit spooky.

    Great quiet street peaceful and close to the Stadium and avenue 70. Lovely quiet dog and safe location. People are down to earth and peaceful. They've also installed fans in the rooms so as an earlier review mentioned they've fixed the problem of the rooms being too hot. Nice balcony to relax and a full equipped kitchen with plenty of space. Lots of cats on the block.
