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.

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.

The hostel it self is incredible and everyone were so so nice and welcoming. I took the cheapest room, a dorm of 10. It was a level above any other hostel I’ve been to. Big room, shower and bathroom inside the room! Rare to find

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.

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

Great staff and a great location, very cool rooftop Terrace with hot tubs! Unfortunately the walls are paper thin and you hear everything happens in the hall and sometimes between rooms. Ditto with the windows so you hear a lot of what's going on on the streets. If you sleep easily I think you'll love the place, if you are a light sleeper like me you may want to choose ear plugs or bring white noise machine or White Noise app on your phone, or choose a more remote hostel a bit more outside of the main areas. Amazing staff though. Really cool place.

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.

Great hostel for travelers. Clean & safe and lots of common areas to hang out. Not a great place to work if you have phone calls—they play music right near the coworking space, and even in private rooms there were parties in the hallways during the day. Great vibes and fun hostel, just not if you need to study/work!
