Pros:

This place is great. Exceptional staff who spoke good English. Very relaxed areas to sit or laze in a hammock in the central courtyard area. Free coffee and tea, excellent breakfast, fan in the rooms instead of air-conditioning which worked very well. Good shower, decent sized room. Close to metro station.

Cons:

Nothing.

Wszystko było super. Jestem zachwycona hostelem. Chłopaki z obłsugi niezwykle mili i pomocni :)
Pros:

Spędziłam w tym hostelu naprawdę świetny czas! Obsługa była niezwykle miła i pomocna, a pokoje czyste, zadbane i bardzo przytulne. Klimat całego miejsca jest niesamowity — w części wspólnej panuje spokój, są hamaki, drzewko, rośliny i przyjemny, relaksujący zapach. Śniadanie było bardzo smaczne, a nocą spokojnie dało się spać, bez głośnej muzyki po 23:00.
Lokalizacja też super!
Serdecznie polecam ten hostel każdemu, kto szuka komfortu, spokoju i przyjaznej atmosfery!

Un séjour absolument parfait
Pros:

Localisation parfaite et safe. La chambre était spacieuse, confortable et impeccablement propre. Eau chaude et sdb agréable. Les espaces communs sont magnifiques et très agréables à vivre.
Les Commentaires sur le bruit sont excessifs à mon sens, comme partout en Colombie les infrastructures feront que cela sera un minimum bruyant à moins de vivre loin de tout. Sachant que nous sommes en plein cœur de ville, j’ai été agréablement étonné de ne pas être dérangée par le bruit.

Mais ce qui rend vraiment cet endroit exceptionnel, c’est le staff : extrêmement gentil, attentionné et toujours prêt à aider. Je suis même triste de les quitter ce qui est franchement rare.
Ils font toute la différence.
Grâce à eux, j’ai passé 5 jours incroyables, avec un niveau de service humain devenu rare.
Je recommande sans hésiter.

Pros:

It's a really cool place in a cool location in Medellin. The staff is super helpful and friendly. It has a cool place to chill after a busy day in the city!

Cons:

It can be a bit noisy during the night, as the building has really thin walls.

The staff was phenomenal, especially those on the front desk. Friendly, helpful, and they gave grea.
Pros:

The breakfast was only average.

Cons:

In-room refrigerators. Someone stole our bottled water from the communal refrigerator, plus we were concerned about possible tampering of opened bottles.

Sentirsi in famiglia
Pros:

La struttura è molto accogliente, ma quello che rende speciale questo posto è l’attenzione dello staff verso il cliente. Ci si sente accolti e coccolati!

Cons:

Le camere sono semplici e piccole, ma comunque pulite e comode, forse avrei apprezzato un letto più grande.
