Be VERY careful beyond the hostel gates
Pros:

Overall the hostal was fine, but the location wasn’t… my friend was robbed right outside the hostel gate which means it’s pretty unsafe.

Cons:

The location.

Um hostel que acolhe pessoas. E que pode, no futuro, acolher diferentes formas de perceber o mundo. 🩵
Pros:

O Viajero Santa Marta foi uma experiência muito agradável. Gostei bastante da energia do hostel, dos espaços de convivência e da sensação de acolhimento que o ambiente transmite. É um lugar que facilita conhecer pessoas, mas que também permite encontrar momentos de tranquilidade quando necessário. Foi uma estadia leve e muito positiva.

Cons:

Não tenho críticas relevantes. Como terapeuta ocupacional, atuo com integração sensorial e também sou neurodivergente, então naturalmente observo os ambientes por essa perspectiva.

Acredito que pequenas estratégias voltadas ao conforto sensorial poderiam tornar a experiência ainda mais inclusiva, como informações sobre espaços mais silenciosos, orientações para quem busca descansar e algumas adaptações simples para hóspedes com diferentes perfis sensoriais.

Vejo um potencial enorme para que o Viajero também seja reconhecido por esse cuidado.

Pros:

Había buen ambiente de gente joven.

Cons:

Era bastante ruidoso por la noche, sobre todo nuestra habitación que estaba justo debajo del rooftop. Las camas eran incómodas, el colchón era muy fino.
