the hostel was well priced but i was so HOT

my room was 8 people - which was 2 rooms connected with an open archway, my room had white curtains (why even buy white curtains?, no point) so it was extremely bright at 5am. it also had no AC on our half of the room

the AC & dark curtains were both in the other room which was not very convenient. the AC in the other room was also very weak even when we asked them to turn it down to 20, you couldn’t feel it at all. they also turn it off during the day AKA there was never any time to escape the heat

stiff and forced atmosphere..
place too clean.. good for europeans with high standarts and no big interest in the local folks..
food is very expensive and not authentic
they give out some free shots at the evenings but that‘s the least when they charge you 10k for a beer even tho u get it around the corner for 3.5k..
ur not allowed to smoke weed inside the garden area.. so the tourists get forced to go outside and get in trouble with the police that takes advantage of tourists not knowing the law..
apart from that it‘s allright
(oh yeah forgot that.. check in takes ages people are not morivated.. seen the same at viajero in cartagena and then left while the check in process and went for the 7 nights hostel in getsemani where i had a all over pleasant experience..

Excellent facilities, pool was great, super social vibe, free salsa lessons in evening are fun, paid lessons are also available which my partner did.

No air conditioning in private bedrooms. A fan is provided but it doesn't do much, meaning a very warm sleep. Shared bathrooms and showers are less ideal but they are kept clean. The kitchen is VERY warm to cook in, there is a strong fan but it's not super fun to spend a lot of time in. Kitchen fridge is very full.

Surrounding area is good and feels safe at night. Highly recommend Creolle Lovers for a meal, just down the road.

Not the worst, not the best

Hostel was ok, good facilities although only 3 toilets for women for the whole hostel. 12 bed room had 1 small fan, it smelt so bad there was no ventilation.
Mainly the vibe was just soooo off. No one was friendly, I guess this place is more for groups of travellers.
Staff told me a tour I had waited all day to do was cancelled and then it went ahead as the other staff member told me after.
Anyway I stayed the nights I’d paid for and then moved to another hostel which was amazing!

The staff were super friendly, I like the ambiance of the place. The negative was the room lacked proper ventilation and felt very stuffy. At times it was hotter inside the room than outside.
Breakfast was ok. The location is really close, a 5 mins walk from San Antonio church. Another benefit is that a number of tours starts from there and lots of activities that you can join.
Overall I liked it.

Good price value

It’s good a value for your money. Some rooms are sticky and the fans aren’t enough. It’s a good hostel with buffet breakfast and kitchen. However some people are loud and inconsiderate towards others.

the right place for your cali visit

Cali is a place for when you wanna come learn & dance (mostly) salsa, and Viajero Cali is the perfect place for that.
daily group free salsa class, you can take private lessons (Karol & Jeniffer were great) and you'll always find someone to practice with.
at evening it becomes alive at the bar (usually weekends)

Social Hostel with great beds

I loved having a female only dorm because you can get dressed/changes without any hassle as all the showers are located outside of the bedrooms, in a shared pool area. There are that many people that you meet so many nice people. It definitely is a party hostel but you can also just chill if you want to. The beds are sturdy and you don't feel the other person move in the bunk bed.
