Towels were not available even by purchase. The reception told me to buy one if I needed. The wi-fi was terrible. Location is very noisy 24/7.

I was really impressed by the design of this hostel. All the space was well used and it was amazing to see so many guests stayed in the same big room but each had their own privacy. The kitchen and dining room was small and we had to take turns to have breakfast, but generally it was good. There's even a small Jacuzzi in the courtyard and it's kind of good to enjoy it for a while in the hot night.

Great hostel, good price. Love the unique environment of the rooms.
The only thing was that there was no electricity at our arrival. But other than that, would recommand 10/10

Had a good stsy overall and it was good value. It was pretty loud in the dorm rooms until midnight as they play music in the social space, also my ved was next to a huge air conditioning unit. Saying that it was nice to feel a bit more privacy than a normal dorm with some of the beds up on platforms which are curtained off. A food place if you want to party as you are right in the middle of all the clubs.

Uncomfortable stay, wouldn't recommend
Hostel is in a really central location in the old town. We stayed one night here in a double in a dorm, however it was a very uncomfortable stay, the bed was up 3 sets of narrow stairs in the main dorm room so it was a pain carrying bags up, going to bathroom etc. The bed was so uncomfortable, mattress was on a slant, creaky - we both woke up the next morning with sore neck and backs. The staff here unfortunately arent that pleasant or helpful and didnt speak english

Unfortunately, when you get a private room, you don't get use of the wifi. The network is not even available in your room, they tell you to come downstairs to use it. So i spent a lot of time in the outdoor lobby, it was the only way i was able to work and plan.
I also didn't have access to the breakfasts they have going on in the mornings for those staying in dorms.
The bathroom in my room was beautiful

A cool space and great location but unfortunately I had a few issues. The electricity and water kept going out which made it very uncomfortable in the heat of Cartagena. There were only 3 bathrooms for a very large dorm and I needed to queue for the bathroom (when the water/electricity was working).
I chose to move to a different hostel because I was so uncomfortable and requested a refund for the second night. This was denied because at the time of asking the electricity and water were on and they didn't see what the problem was.

Grande e Silencioso
Nem parece que na saleta haviam mais de 20 camas. Todas com persiana pata provacidade , confortavel e silencioso se preza por silencio apos as 22hs. Decoração encantadora. Banheiros limpos. Chuveiro agua fria. Bom colchão. Tinha locker para mala e um nicho com cadeado para coisas pequenas na cabeceira da cama. Muito bem localizado. Outros amigos em outros hosteis ficaram com inveja.

Parfait hostal au coeur du centre historique.
J'ai beaucoup aimé mon séjour à l'hostal, il n'y avait aucun irritant, tout fonctionne bien, les drains, la pression et la tièdeur de l'eau de la douche, la grandeur des salles de bain. Le lit était confo, l'espace intime avec des prises de courant. J'ai apprécié aussi l'endroit pour fumer. L'hostal est parfaitement bien situé au coeur du vieux Cartagène. Décoration très belle. J'y retournerais. La seule chose est qu'on ne m'a pas donné de couverture la 1re nuit, alors qu'avec la clim il vient qu'à faire froid la nuit. Un oublie je suppose.
