Social party hostel
Pros:

Needed a comfy place to stay after landing late at night in Santa Marta. I did not realize this hostel was more of a social/party hostel ( my bad on my part ) . Stayed in a 6 bed female dorm and everyone in there was very loud. Not the hostels fault and the price you pay for staying in a shared dorm. Yet the whole hostel was quite noisy until 12am. On a good note, the bed was comfy and AC was heavenly.

Granted I only stayed one night, so my experience is solely based off of that.

Cons:

Noisy

Pros:

Quarto feminino é bom, tem uma tomada ao lado da cama, luz e cortina. O ar fica ligado à noite. Poderia ter ganchos para pendurar as toalhas e outras roupas, senti falta disso, e de uma mesa maior também. Pois é um quarto para 6 meninas..

Cons:

O piso do rostel é meio sujo, o terraço fica sempre com as cadeiras evitadas das festas. A cozinha não tem armários, tudo ao ar livre então meio que fica tudo sempre empoeirado e não te colheres. Comente facas e garfos.

A recepção do hotel é querida

Disposición de cambio de habitación
Pros:

Lo que más me gustó del hostal fue la disposición del personal de la gerencia o staff ya que tuve una incomodidad en la habitación acordada pero ellos me realizaron el cambio a una habitación más cómoda de acuerdo a lo que buscaba además Carolina, y el personal estuvieron atentos de mi , y de la información que solicitaba mi familia de la estadía, en general todo estuvo bien.

Cons:

La habitación cerca a la entrada que es mixta , muy chica , ruidosa, y poco aire pero me solucionaron la situación.

Pros:

Belle terrasse et très bon restaurant. Service courtois
à l'accueil.

Cons:

Le bruit lors de la soirée de salsa était tellement fort qu’il nuisait à notre sommeil. Il s’est estompé tardivement, après 23h.
