"Very Good"

7.0

We really liked the setup of the hostel, and were impressed by how clean everything was kept despite being in the middle of the bush. The staff/volunteers were really friendly, and created a nice atmosphere. The dorm rooms are pretty good, each bed has a fan and mosquito net, and the lockers for your bags are huge.

Everything is very expensive (rooms, food, activities), which means it doesn’t feel like good value for money- this was a shame as it really restricted how long we could stay. It would be great if there was a kitchen available for guest use to help mitigate the cost. It would also be great if the hostel organised shared shuttles from Santa Marta or elsewhere- having to catch a moto taxi down the dirt road can be a bit sketchy, especially when it is rainy and slippery

"On a passé un trop bon séjour, et on s’est même liées d’amitiés avec des bénévoles, qui rendu le séjour encore plus agré"

9.0

C’était un hostel avec beaucoup d’ambiance et de bonnes énergies. Il est très social, et propose énormément d’activités. On a adoré !!!

Le seul bémol est qu’il n’y a pas de cuisine et que nous n’avons pas le droit de faire rentrer de la nourriture de l’extérieur. Nous sommes donc obligés de consommer dans le restaurant est les prix sont assez élevés…

"Sehr viel Spaß"

9.0

Mir hat vor allen Dingen die Hilfsbereitschaft des Personals gefallen. Angel war einer davon der sehr nett und offen immer hilfsbereit war. Außerdem waren zwei Volunteers names Celia und Noah da die ein wirklich sehr guten Job gemacht haben und mein Aufenthalt absolut perfekt gestaltet haben. Hiermit möchte ich mich noch mal vor allen Dingen bei den dreien bedanken für die tolle Zeit die ich hatte.

"Falta de servicios básicos y enfoque comercial excesivo"

3.0

El río y la naturaleza

Muy lindo el paisaje tropical y las plantas pero no pueden cobrar 50usd la noche y tener ratas que caminan por los techos e ingresan a las habitaciones. El concepto de "hostel" aquí brilla por su ausencia. El hostel no cuenta con cocina y prohíben estrictamente el ingreso de alimentos o bebidas del exterior. Un día me controlaron la mochila para cuidar que no tenga productos de afuera. Me parece muy ofensivo para los huéspedes, se supone que la característica central de los hosteles es facilitar instalaciones para que los turistas se gestionen sus propios alimentos. Claramente es una estrategia para que consumas sus alimentos con precios internacionales muy alejados a los costos colombianos. El lugar funciona más como un resort para amantes de la música electrónica que como un alojamiento para viajeros. ​Todo el modelo está articulado a través de su fundación, lo cual utilizan como argumento para incentivarte constantemente a consumir sus propios productos y actividades. Se siente más como una estrategia de ventas que como un ambiente hospitalario para viajeros. Si buscas un sitio para vincularte con extranjeros (principalmente ingleses) y escuchar música electrónica es ideal para vos. Si querés descansar y disfrutar la naturaleza no lo recomiendo ya que ponen música toda la noche.

"Por el precio que se paga hay muchos mejores hostales en la zona"

4.0

Lo más especial del lugar es el río de buritaca.

Solo advertir a las personas que se están pensando quedar acá que si están pensando en un lugar para relajarse, no es el lugar. El hostal tiene fiestas electrónicas casi todas las noches que van mínimo hasta la 1:00 am. Al ser un lugar abierto, la música se escucha en todo el lugar, incluyendo las habitaciones. No es un hostal económico, comparado con los de la zona.A pesar de esto, algunas actividades, típicas de un hostal, como el billar, son a pago. No hay señal de wifi en ninguna de las habitaciones y hacen recargos al momento del check out sin el consentimiento de las personas en nombre de la “fundación” .
