One of my favourite ever hostels! The staff are so friendly and welcoming from the moment you arrive and Yuli always had time for a chat! The service was amazing, the breakfasts are delicious and change every day, and the hostel is super clean. I would also recommend the cooking class with Omar!

It’s a really beautiful furnished and clean hostel in the very center of Cartagena. The beds are comfortable with a lot of private space, a curtain and even a fan. Felt like an own room. Plenty of places to hang out and meet new people. It’s a very social place, so you will always be able to find company. The staff was super nice and helpful and always motivated to keep the vibe going.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

Best hostel we’ve ever stayed in, great location, lovely homely atmosphere but no 1 is the staff they are the best SO helpful and accommodating! Massive shout out to the wonderful Jorge who owns/runs the hostel who is truly one of the nicest people we’ve ever met and really made our stay in Cartagena as he gave us the best advice and really looked out for us, ensuring we had the best time.

This is probably one of the best hostels I've ever stayed at, and I've stayed at many. The location is amazing, the staff is lovely, the dorms are great and well equipped (curtains on beds, AC, own power plug and light by bed, locker), there are social areas to hang out, the breakfast is great and there is someone at reception 24/7, so it's very safe. There's even a Netflix room. And the cats are sweet. I was even able to use the pool and shower before check-in, as I arrived early.
