Been traveling for a bit and this hostel hits all the right points- comfy, aesthetic, friendly making. My ideal dream home is modeled after the comfy room with the fireplace here…that’s right and fire place you can run. Great place do yourself a favor and cozy up

cute, mid-sized hostel in the city centre with an amazing view on the rooftop. the staff is super friendly & always down for a little chat! Giovanni makes the best cocktails ever & is super talented & passionate about it.

We had a confirmed reservation, yet when we arrived, we were told the hostel was overbooked. We were forced to find new accommodation in the middle of the night, which was incredibly stressful. To make matters worse, we had called earlier that same day and they confirmed our booking. We are still waiting for our deposit to be refunded. I would definitely not recommend staying here!

Absolutely loved my stay here. The entire staff was so warm and welcoming - especially Leidy, who was so wonderful. The rooms and beds were so comfortable and the terrace, garden, bar, and seats were lovely for relaxing and sipping tea. I loved that they had morning yoga. The place is also easy walking distance to so many great sights in Bogotá. Highly recommend!!

I loved the design and vibe of the hostel - super super cozy, we even had a fire place put on in the living room. All the common spaces were really nice and cozy, and I found the space to be very much feel like home kind of style. Great terrace with a view, tea and coffee service for free, so you can enjoy coffee with a view. The staff was nice and the overall experience was very good, I do have however few minuses: - extremely loud music in reception and bar (after closing hours) until very late, staff was cleaning and music was on, however the moment I asked to lower the tone, the did with no problem. - the district is said to be very dangerous and I didn’t feel safe leaving the hostel after 6 PM (I even heard you can get robbed while entering or leaving a taxi during the night, although I did that and all was fine). All in all, I do recommend the place.
