Friendly and central Hostal

The hostal is wonderful colorful. It is located very central in a nice neighbourhood close to museums and everything you would like to see in the old town of Bogota. The staff in the Hostal is very friendly and they help you with everything. It is very clean there. And the included breakfast is made a la minute for you.

Pleasant staff hostel very basic and area not safe

We booked this hostel as part of our honeymoon and were very disappointed. The rooms were small and noise could be heard all over hostel. The bathroom was tiny. There were disturbing signs relating to child protection and the area was very dangerous. We had two attempts of robbery outside hostel.

Hostel muito bem organizado e administrado por pessoas que gostam do que fazem. Muita limpeza, café da manhã muito gostoso, ambientes tranquilos e proprietários muito bem intencionados, além de nós receberem muito bem nos ajudaram com outras necessidades que não estavam inclusas, como auxílio para ligarmos para embaixada, ajuda na localização entre outras coisas. Eu e minha esposa só temos elogios ao local e aos proprietários. Recomendamos 100%.

Hostal cómodo, accesible y muy céntrico

Viajamos a Bogotá por ocio y quedarnos en este hostal fue una muy buena decisión. El hostal es acogedor y con varios espacios: espacios comunes y un jardín con una linda vista a las montañas. La habitación era pequeña pero cómoda, con lo necesario; específicamente el baño privado era bastante pequeño, pero cumplió su función. Debido a que el hostal es un poco pequeño, se escucha bastante lo que pasa en el pasillo, que por momentos puede ser ruidoso; sin embargo, esto no fue una molestia para nosotros, pues no hubo ruido excesivo. Todo estuvo muy limpio siempre y tuvimos una excelente atención por parte del personal, siempre dispuesto a ayudarnos en todo lo que necesitáramos, dentro del hostal y orientación sobre la ciudad. El desayuno es muy rico y completo. La ubicación es excelente: es muy céntrico; queda en el corazón del centro histórico, cerca de museos y la Plaza Bolívar. Los alrededores son seguros. En conclusión, muy buen hostal, cómodo, acogedor, precio accesible, excelente atención y ubicación. Altamente recomendable!
