Great value formoney
Pros:

Amanda was lovely and very helpful. She suggested activities, helped me with the taxi since I didn't have cash to pay for it.
I felt very welcome, watched Colombia's world cup match with them. The small pool is a great extra after a long day out. The location is close to many nice restaurants and close to the local busstation.

I had the bedroom with private bathroom, and had a nice strong fan. There was even another fan in the room.
For the price they charge, it's really great.

Cons:

Nothing.

Perfect for remote work
Pros:

I had a great stay here and would definitely recommend it, especially if you're a digital nomad. The Wi-Fi was fast and reliable, and there were plenty of quiet areas throughout the hostel where I could work comfortably. The hostel is spread across multiple floors, so it never felt overcrowded.
I also appreciated that there are two kitchens and multiple bathrooms, which made everything much more convenient. They seem to do a really good job distributing guests across the dorms, so there were usually fewer people in each room than I expected, making it quieter and more comfortable.
The staff were some of the nicest and most helpful I've come across while traveling. They were always happy to answer questions, and I even booked one of my activities through them, which was super easy.
