Great hostel. Great for people who want to work remotely and for people who want to party. They have a co-working with great wifi. They have a rooftop patio and bar with hot tub and cool tub. They have blackout curtains and ceiling fans. However, the only downside is that it’s super noisy. If you want to sleep before midnight you might have some trouble. Especially on the 5th floor.

Great location, super friendly staff and most importantly for me, clean. It was a little loud but that’s too be expected from any hostal. I got a private room on the 3rd floor so furthest away from both the rooftop bar and the restaurant on the ground floor. Would recommend and would stay again

Top notch hostel

Best shower i’ve used in a hostel in Colombia. Super clean rooms, lockers come with locks, comfortable bed pods that offer a lot of privacy. The room I was in faced the main street and was a bit loud all night.

Robbed whilst I was alseep. Not Safe. Avoid.

My stay here was one of the worst experiences of my life. I was robbed whilst I was asleep in my room in the middle of the night. They have gone completely off the radar since I have tried to be reimbursed for my losses. It was absolutely an inside job and they knew the lock on my window was broken. As a lone female traveler, on my first day in Colombia this was one of the worst experiences of my life. Not safe, do not recommend.

Large/active hostel in Manila, Poblado

I stayed for one night. The hostel is large with an active clientele. Large, modern, and clean open spaces. Rooftop with socializing and jacuzzis (there isn't really a view though). I was unable to participate, but there are many planned activities. Walking distance to nightlife areas, many restaurants in area; area is very safe and has everything you need.

Richard and manuel Were the best staff. Viajero runs some incredible tours such as comuna 13. The room wa always very clean except that insects would come in when the window was open, this is natural for the city I believe.
