Pros:

The hostel is in a great calm location. Staff was amazing and allowed me check in early in the morning even though I only wanted to drop my bag. They said room is ready so you can check in. The room was spacious and comfortable, had a socket near the bed. The shower was good, clean

Cons:

The only thing could be better is to have a mop, to wipe down the water from the shower in the bathroom

perfect place to stay going to the Olaya Herrera airport - AC & hot water :)
Pros:

Great hot water. The beds were firm. Small lamp next to the bedside table. I stayed in the room at the bottom floor next to reception.

Cons:

I agree with others that the property can be loud because of street noise as well as the sound of the door opening and closing. Wasn’t a problem for me because I was arriving late and leaving early, I may have been one of those people that woke up the other guests. The room I stayed in, had no windows, and the air conditioner blew directly onto the bed which was in the corner of the room. This was fine for a single traveler, but I think that if a couple would have stayed there one person would’ve been against the wall, and the other person would have been receiving the air from the AC directly onto their body all night. The mattress was hard, so if you like that, it could work. Overall, I say the 24 hour reception was amazing and that it was a perfect place to stay going to the Olaya Herrera airport for the next morning.

Pros:

Literie très propre et confortable.
Douche agréable avec eau chaude. Cuisine fonctionnelle.

Cons:

Bruyant et mal insonorisé. Si vous prenez la chambre familiale, ne convient pas à deux couples car pas de séparation systématique entre les lits comme indiqué sur les photos.
