Very relaxing place in Cali. It’s spacious, a pool to cool down and the possibility to take private salsa classes was amazing. Recommended! Location is great too, just a few steps from San Antonio and the center
I liked all.

The hostel itself looks really nice with all the plants and if you wanna party it will be the right hostel for you!
The noise. If you like a party hostel, this is the place to go. If you want to relax, it isn't. Party in front of the room until 01.30.
The bedroom has one window, but then everybody can look in your room from the hostel (garden).
Wifi didn't work, which isn't a huge problem. But just say so while checking in, as we need wifi for an uber etc.
Same for the warm water.
The lamps next to the bed weren't working.

I would not recommend this hostel. The location is great, and breakfast, but apart from that it was the worse hostel experience I have ever had.
The check in wasn't fast, the room was very noise and bright at night.
Also they didn't have internet at all, they gave me 10% discount because of it. But I had to pay a taxi to Starbucks to work. Which was way more than that.
On my second night it rained and the water entered the entire room.
It was 6am when I realized. My computer was on the locker under the bed and all my work equipment was flooded in water. I was crying and worried for all that morning and weekend.
I think it was very irresponsible from their part to put people in a room that gets flooded when it rains. Everyone's baggage got wet.
I heard from other staff that it wasn't the first time, and I guess will keep happening.
They didn't move us from the room straight way. We had to beg for that, and at least I got moved to another room for the next night.
I didn’t feel safe in that place, I had 2 books with me that got damaged by the water. All my clothes and shoes got wet from the water, which wasn't clean. They didn't even offer to wash it. Just to dried.
And about my computer, that was the worse, they didn't pay anything regarding that.
A lot of people were sick on my room. I don't know exactly if it was from mosquitoes, but I also got very sick 3 days later. Just like the people who were sick there.
They charged me for the 3 nights of nightmare, so. I had an horrible time, lots of inconveniences, and still paid for it.
I booked one private salsa class with them and the instructor were late.
There are many hostels in Cali, I made a bad choice and had a bad experience. That could have been way better somewhere else for even a better price. I would Not recommend the hostel.

Nice rooms and atmosphere. It was also great that they offered free salsa classes every night (and go to nice salsa places afterwards), which made it easy to meet people.
Overall everything was nice! Only recommendation is to turn the volume of the music in the morning a bit down or more like a morning vibe playlist :)

It’s a small and cozy hostel
The Internet connection is not reliable. Not great for Digital Nomads

Very friendly staff, great building, nice courtyard, good breakfast
Salsa classes excellent fun
Evening outings amazing, especially the Friday night salsa street
Would have liked a clothes hanger in the room and a bedside light. Some more loungers by the pool are needed.
Would also have been great if they had encouraged dancing during the afternoon/evening by the pool area. Dance music was playing 🎵

The pool and lounging areas
The food, and the breakfast only includes cereal.

For a small price you can get a nice and easy breakfast :). There's also lunch and a bar.
There's a Whatsapp group to connect with the others, which is a good initiative (but lacks some enthusiasm maybe ;)).
Free salsa and yoga classes were nice as well.
The check in took like 20 minutes - too long if you just come from a long travel. Reception is somewhat slow (but very kind!)
The music is loud and present from 9.30am to 11pm. Even in my room I could hear the music word for word. There's no quiet space in the hostel to relax, think or work.
The pool is very cold.

staff is just great !! kate and vale are just outstanding! they make the best out of your stay there. the atmosphere, breakfast, bar and restaurant prices, and facilities in general are algo wonderful
the fan in the room, even at its highest speed, is not enough to cool down the room. a little more sound isolation in the room would be great
9.0
The hostel is very cool. It was a very beautiful inner yard with bar, swimming pool and a rooftop. One of those hostels in which you consider staying the whole day there rather than going out and exploring the city.
Room and bathroom were standard.
Bigger hostel and feels a bit impersonal.

Nice location, friendly staff, and good food. The bartender serving breakfast and lunch was very nice.
The rooms can be somewhat loud at night but not too bad.

You guys need to specify that the rooms are to be shared with 5 more estrangers people and that is unhealthy.
I didn't get to stay I had to cancel with you, still waiting my reimbursement,

The hostel has a really like-home feeling. A great option to stay in cali if you consider not so much going out by yourself, not including going out a night.
It was kinda hot in the room during the day and the cleanness of the toilets and showers could have been better.
4.0
The place is beautiful, the staff is very kind and helpful, and there are nice activities. They have free salsa classes and often times take the whole group out to salsa dancing places. The WIFI was working very well and the speed was great.
1. Before booking I asked and they said they can offer me a place to work that is quiet, without music. Not quite. When I checked in and asked I was told they have a space they “sometimes land” to the people who work and if I need it I should come and ask. When I did it turned out the place they were talking about was their salsa school and apparently I could use it only if there were no classes at that time. Obtaining permission to use it took too long so I had to go back to my room to take the important call with some loud reggaeton for background (the music from the bar is always very loud).
2. I booked the deluxe double room but the one I got was the standard.
3. I used their laundry service once and they lost several of my socks. They were able to dig out only one of the missing ones.
