    The breakfast is 2 pancakes and fruit which was delicious but I would recommend bringing extra food as I wasn’t full.

    The kitchen was really well stocked and easy to cook in. The shared spaces are very comfortable, quiet, and relaxing. Everything was so clean and the decor is beautiful. I especially loved all the healthy plants in the space. The staff are also so lovely and helpful.

    It has a good common space where I managed to get some work done on my laptop. It is very clean. The staff are nice, especially Charlie. They serve light breakfast daily. There is everything you need. Also, a public library and a huge food market- both very close to the hostel. If you are sound sensitive (traffic, music inside), consider buying earplugs.

    The wifi was really finicky and disconnected a lot--almost no signal in the dorm. If you go to breakfast at 9:30 the food might be gone.

    Friendly staff, good location, clean, comfy beds! The staff was kind enough to let me check in early and store my bags longer after I checked out.

    I loved everything!!

    To me this hostel is one of the best: from their design, to the breakfast and the people working there (very nice and always willimg to help you- of course if you speak Spanish will be easier). You can cook in the kitchen, you have all you need. The breakfast is enough for the money, they change it every day. It is clean. I was lucky enough to sleep all alone even if it was a shared (female) dormitory. The location is ...the location. Very central, but not the best at night to see. I cannot recommend this place enough, exceptional and good value for the money. Now I moved to another neighbourhood in Medellin ( I wanted to spare my stays in different places in town), but, you can't compare the quality of the places. It is warm and has all you need for a hostel. Thank you very much! Gracias!!! ❤️ Ps: they have unlimited filtered water.

    The WiFi in our room by the lobby wasn’t great.

    We stayed here for almost 2 weeks and it was SO CLEAN and so comfortable. They clean the rooms every 3 days. The kitchen is always cleaned. The location is great and right next to the food hall. The staff is amazing. They also had laundry service.

    Patchy Wi-Fi

    Good location if you want to visit the downtown medellin area. Hostel is located right next to a massive food court with big tv screens which is very useful. Good value for money, clean and comfortable and the staff were helpful. The Wi-Fi was patchy however but this is a small complaint

    It was not in the safest or friendliest area, however it had a great cafe nearby and the food market next door had so many options and was very convenient.

    Amazing value for money. The rooms were so clean and facilities were great. One of the nicest breakfasts I’ve had at a hostel!
