Guest Reviews

• Jean (10/5): Excepcional - La atención, el servicio y el cuidado del hostal
• Hoeffi10 (5/5): - Relativ nahe am Zentrum Es gab nur zwei Sitzgelegenheiten für vier Personen, auf der unteren Terrasse. Das Aushängeschild (Kolibritränke) wurde erst nach mehrfacher Aufforderung gefüllt. Obwohl für diese Gegend, auch von dieser Unterkunft, Mückenschutz vorgeschrieben wird, gab es in unserem Zimmer kein Mosquitonetz.
• Roppel (8/5): - Frühstück gut. WLAN sehr schlecht.
• Rebecca (8/5): -
• Giorgio (4/5): Ce ne siamo andati subito, per stesso prezzo abbiamo una camera mille volte migliore - Il personale era bravo e gentile Anche se la signora insisteva sul fatto che non ci siano zanzare in camera (ho appena passato una notte, le ho dato la caccia, non è carino darmi del bugiardo quando conosco la verità) Mi era stato offerto di cambiare hotel senza pagare, ma purtroppo solo tramite e-mail e ho letto la mail alle 23 di sera Mi hanno dato la camera in basso Le zanzare mi hanno distrutto! Ho 20 morsi per ogni gamba, orribile La camera in basso non ha wi-fi La lavatrice è da parte alla finestra, quindi anche qua preparatevi a sentirla la notte Scarafaggio nella doccia (solo uno trovato), nessun asciugamano. Qualsiasi altro posto è meglio, per questo prezzo Se fosse stata una camera low cost avrei capito
• Ailin (9/5): Comodo y cercano - Habitacion con cama muy comoda, con ventilador pero alcanzó perfecto para pasar la noche. Me dejaron dejar la valija mientras seguia paseando!
• Rossana (6/5): - Buona colazione e comoda posizione, presenza di aria condizionata. Bagno piccolo, doccia scomoda: da fare davvero un esperienza. A parte la camera il resto del ostello non pulito e poco curato (i divani tutti mangiati e sfondati).
• Wolfgang (10/5): - Die Lage im Dorfzentrum, die gemütliche Dachterrasse, der nette Host, einfach alles Frühstück war mit 7:30 für meinen Geschmack etwas später
• Ambre (9/5): -
• Nicolas (10/5): Un accueil parfait. - La chambre est simple et petite mais pour notre courte étape, c'était parfait. L'accueil xxl, la terrasse avec les colibris, l'emplacement est au centre de tout, à 2 pas des bus et motos taxi, la laverie sur place. Top Rien sauf peut-être l'eau froide de la douche 😅
• Ainara (10/5): Perfecto - Nos ha encantado la estancia. El desayuno riquísimo y el almuerzo también. La dueña encantadora! Todo bien
• Evelyn (8/5): Schönes Hostel in guter Lage - Die Lage mitten im Ort war super. Sehr persönlich geführtes hostel. Schöne Terrasse zum Frühstücken mit Blick auf viele Vögel. Die Beleuchtung war nicht so gut. Das Zimmer wäre für 2 Personen etwas eng.
• betsabe (8/5): Excelente ubicación y lindo lugar - El lugar es precioso. En la terraza se ven aves, iguanas y mariposas. Es un poco desordenado y la persona de recepción a veces no está.
• Marine (8/5): -
• ofri (8/5): -
• Yureima (10/5): Naturaleza, armonía, aves, atención, comodidad - La terraza es bellísima, el personal q lo atiende es muy atento y familiar, me sentí como en casa, te cuenta de su historia, ves aves, un desayuno espectacular Todo me gustó, quizás unos arreglos a la propiedad pero todo fue súper.
• Eva (2/5): -
• Marisa (7/5): - Die Terrasse mit atemberaubender Aussicht und viel Möglichkeiten zum Entspannen war definitiv unser Highlight. Das Zimmer war gemütlich, das Frühstück gut und die Lage in Minca perfekt. Leider war die Küche etwas schmutzig und hat nicht wirklich zum Kochen eingeladen.
• Pauline (8/5): Gemütlicher Rückzugsort mit toller Terrasse - Die Terrasse und der Ausblick sind richtig toll, man sitzt gemütlich und entspannt - trotz der sehr zentralen Lage für alle Restaurants etc. super. Die Host ist super nett und die Atmosphäre familiär. Das Zimmer ist mit Aircon sehr angenehm kühl. Auch das Frühstück war immer lecker. Das Bad ist sehr klein und die Dusche sehr rudimentär.
• yevalu (10/5): - Excelente ubicación Limpieza Excelente atención
• Nina (7/5): -
• Xavi_ds (5/5): Qualitat preu no va renyit amb una bona neteja. - La ubicació. Falta de neteja a l’habitació. No com a servei recurrent sinó de neteja més profunda.
• Barbara (8/5): Great location - The location was perfect, right in the heart of Minca (it's not a very big town) and the views from the shared terrace were amazing! We loved watching the birds from here. The owner was lovely and made us breakfast every morning which was great. It would have been useful to have some information inside the room about this sort of thing as it was at the front desk only and I couldn't remember the timings for breakfast. Air con worked well. The bathroom was very small so it was quite hard to fit on the toilet.
• Davide (9/5): -
• Florin (9/5): - Proche du centre
• Clement (8/5): -
• rivera (10/5): Naturaleza, vista y familia - La terraza, uf fue increíble, ví monos, aves de toda clase, es una vista maravillosa, y la ubicación es perfecta cerca a todo Todo fue genial
• Ben (10/5): Exceptional -
• Thomas (9/5): Superb -
• Olga (10/5): Great hostal with great people administering. - The couple running the hostal are great, diligent, and caring N/A
• Shannon (6/5): Very friendly staff and great location - The veranda had a nice view in the trees to see birds. A bar was loud nearby on Friday and Saturday nights.
• Martina (10/5): Exceptional - The host family was really nice and attentive,we particularly enjoyed the terrace with beautiful views. The place is quiet at night and neat.
• Pawel (10/5): Good time - wonderful view from the terrace. family atmosphere
• Lijo (10/5): Exceptional -
• Sara (2/5): Better look for another place for the same price - There is only one good thing in this hotel and that is the lady who works there, Jeini. She was always very kind to us, she is a lovely person and we thank her very much for her friendliness. The room we slept in is small and noisy, in the bathroom there is not even room to sit on the toilet. There are lots of mosquitoes and sandflies (like everywhere in Minca), but there is no mosquito net on the windows or above the bed, the windows do not close completely and there are no curtains, so anyone can see in the room. The wifi never works. It said on the booking description that the hotel has a kitchen for guests, we arrived and were told by the owner that this was not true but that we could still use it. The next day we were told that we had to pay for the use of the kitchen. All this would be acceptable if the price of the room was not so high, but for the price paid, the quality is really bad.
• Thomas (10/5): Friendly family and cosy stay - Friendly family
• Rosie (4/5): no toilet door?! - great location there was no door on the 'private' bathroom! unless you make it very clear in the room photos and descriptions then that's really really unacceptable. I also had to ask several times and wait ages to get my change when I paid for the room. noisy - but thats not the hostals fault, it's just in the middle of town with lots of loud bars around!
• Güntherworldwide (6/5): Pleasant - Good location on the hillside. Close to centre and good starting point for most hikes. Big fan on the wall. Price was around 25,000 more per night than shown on booking. Apparently they do not include taxes in the shown price. Bathroom without a door and super tiny, I'm not tall but I couldn't sit straight on the toilet. Only cold water in the shower. It shows laundry service possible on the amenities listed but when we asked for it they said we should look for one in town. Poor lightning.
• Jarod (10/5): Exceptional - The host was the best i have encounted on my travels in colombia. So friendly and welcoming.
• Kbrown48 (10/5): Wonderful stay even better host - The host was lovely, went over and beyond to help us, she let us use the showers after check out and even give us bite cream It was slightly loud as night due to a close by bar but nothing too bad
• Vanessa (5/5): Too expensive. Not great facilities except the WiFi. Feomt desk staff helpful. - Mai who works there was very helpful in assisting me to rearrange my booking, get my cases to my room, look a different cheaper options for an ongoing stay - thank you. WiFi was the best I’ve had in Colombia. Toilet was broken. less than a dribble came out of the shower. sheets were dirty or maybe just old. no natural light in the room - windows are into inner courtyard and blocked anyway. full on music and sounds from the street. very expensive.
• Markos (10/5): Highly recommend, the owners are warm and welcoming. - friendly helpful staff, good location and comfortable rooms with a nice rooftop with hammocks nothing
• Colin (8/5): Very good -
• Jan-erik (7/5): Good -
• Kevin (8/5): Great Location in Minca - The staff, particularly the female co-owner who's name I've sadly forgotten, are super friendly, accommodating and funny. The place has an amazing balcony/roof terrace with very comfortable hammocks overlooking a river, although the view is partially obscured by a tree; the tree is full of birds! Great spot place to sit, watch and relax. The location is perfect, right in the middle of Minca, but no so loud. We were there at a very busy period and therefore paid a premium price. Actually we had to pay for all four beds in the room. I'm sure the price is lower normally, but for the price we paid we could've had a nice hotel. If the price is normal, not in the week after new year, the place is nice.
