No. The hostel describes itself as young, social and boutique-style, “without being a party hostel”. There's a house plan most evenings for meeting people, and then people rest.
See the social weekYes: there's an equipped shared kitchen, open 10:00 to 21:00 according to Hostelworld.
Yes: free coffee and tea around the clock, plus free filtered-water refills so you don't need to buy plastic bottles.
It's free throughout, and Booking.com guests rate it 9.8 out of 10 (checked 22 October 2026). We don't publish speeds because we haven't measured them.

Ask on WhatsApp(opens in a new tab)Yes. All seven private rooms listed in the hostel's engine have a private bathroom with a hot shower; the dorms use a shared bathroom.
See the roomsThe double with A/C and one of the two dorms have it; the other private rooms have fans and the other dorm has a fan on each bed. If heat keeps you awake, say so when you book.
The platforms disagree (some say included, some for hire). Private rooms include bed linen and basic toiletries according to the hostel's engine. For towels, ask.
Booking.com says children of all ages are welcome, there are no cots or extra beds, and under-18s can only check in with a parent or guardian. The family room sleeps up to five.
No: it's served 7:00–10:00 at extra cost. Hostelworld and Booking.com list it at COP 14,000 (checked 22 October 2026); confirm the price at the desk.
It varies. The hostel's stories show arepas, eggs, fruit, crepes and orange juice in front of the jaguar and paraglider murals. It's not a fixed menu.
See the terraceThe front desk helps you book with local operators: paragliding over the Chicamocha, rafting, caving and more, according to Hostelworld. The hostel isn't the operator; price, times, minimum age and inclusions are confirmed by the operator through the team.
See adventuresWe couldn't find it published and it may vary by plan (tejo or the Juan Curí outing, for example). Ask at the desk.
See the social weekOn its official booking engine (LobbyPMS), where you'll see real rates and availability, or by WhatsApp at +57 314 241 4850. It's also on Hostelworld and Booking.com.
Book your staySources disagree: Hostelworld says cash, transfers and cards; Booking.com says cash only; the hostel's engine takes online payments through Bold. Ask the team what works for you.
It depends on the channel and the rate: check the conditions where you book, or ask the team if you book direct.
Message the team on WhatsApp; it goes to the hostel's own number.
