An excellent hostel with an international feel (look at those flags!) and a large – if rather concrete – back garden perfect for hanging out, cooking and drinking with friends. Upstairs you'll find numerous dorms, while downstairs is for private rooms, some of which have air-con and private bathrooms. Staff is friendly but breakfast (COP$8000 extra) is rather a disappointment.
