An okay place to stay — definitely not a backpacker hostel, more geared toward locals. The food was delicious. The location opposite side to Minca, no view of Santa Marta, but one of the valley, and the river.

Room was okay, but there was a lot of room for improvement on site. The hot tub only had cold water in it, there are bikes on site but no information on if they can be used (and staff not very helpful). The bar is often empty so you can’t order a drink, they have no details of the ‘happy hour’ and the place is overrun with people with day passes on the weekend

The hostal has terrible facilites, the pool loked dirty. We are 3 people and the room barely had room for 2. Difficult access to the place. I don’t recommend it at all. We could not even stay at this place. We asked for a refund but we didn’t get it

Dissapointing
The place is clean and comfortable with nice sitting areas. Sadly the food is absolutely awful which is a huge letdown and everyone else there agreed.The spa was also unstaffed throughout my stay here and there was little atmosphere. Would not recommend for solo backpackers

Chambre un peut trop petite pour 6. Le SPA pas toujours chaud. Manque de variété pour le déjeuner. On a quand même beaucoup aimé notre séjour. Le site est absolument magnifique, le personnel très gentil. On le recommandera et on reviendrait sans hésiter.

Espectacular el sitio a tener en cuenta la entrada es carrera no pavimentada pero se puede llegar bien, está como a 7 minutos de Minca.
El hostal es muy lindo y ameno tiene zona de juegos, salida al río, piscina, parque infantil, en la noche puedes poner una película tipo cine, jacuzzi.
Buen desayuno
