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!

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.
