3 star hotel with 5 star service! The hotel has character and although furnishings are a little dated, the staff is exceptional and always eager to help. Good choices for breakfast and food in the restaurant is reasonable priced. Being able to drop off your laundry in the morning to find it freshly washed and neatly folded on your bed by the end of the day makes you feel as if you are home at mom's or as if you all of a sudden acquired Dobby the house elf. We also loved the spacious rooftop.The location is about 4 blocks from Medellin's Centre, which is a bit rough around the edges and thus to be approached with caution, especially at night. Unbeatable value for price. Highly recommend.

Wifi was strong and consistent during our first stay, but very inconsistent during our second stay. Noone's fault, just something to be aware of if you are dependent on solid wifi connection.

Most unique hotel I've ever stayed in Excellent prices Had a cat and dog They had water that was able to get hot Small restaurant with snacks inside

The area.. not much around. Very dark at night. It was quiet though. One day I saw paperwork just left in the open and it had people's personal info on it - not good! Breakfast not included

I liked that there were a couple of English speaking employees. All of the employees were nice and helpful. I liked that they had a restaurant in the hotel that allowed me to put the meals on my check out tab so that I could use my credit card. I liked that the kitchen staff was patient with my ordering in butchered Spanish along with the help of google translate. The meals were reasonable priced with good portions and were delicious. I liked that the staff was honest and their check out tab matched my check out tab. I liked that the hotel was securely gated and protected from all the outer lying potential riff raff. I liked that the room had an attached bathroom.

The room could have been air conditioned, but I was grateful for the oscillating fan. I made the staff aware beforehand about my early arrival and early check in and the need for a shuttle/transportation to the hotel. No one showed up and I was literally accosted by a bunch of guys trying to force me into their cab, which I was not comfortable with at all. I stayed in the airport for 90 minutes after the cab/taxi drivers all dispersed and finally chose an older gentlemen who I felt I could trust. I paid him 105,000 COP and he took me on a wild fast and furious ride to the hotel. The bed was not comfortable at all, It is located in a not so great neighborhood on a very busy road.

Staying at this hotel was a dream. Hotel staff were helpful, kind and tolerated my inability to speak Spanish with grace and humor. Warm human interaction, genuine kindness & helpfulness-not a forced corporate kind of relationship. Beautiful rooms and ambience. Food was excellent. I had a visit from the roof cat which was cherry on top of perfect stay. thank you hotel 61 Prado

Great quality rooms, close to Metro in a reasonably safe area. Hotel exterior is very secure, being fully barred with doorbell entry. Very convenient in house restaurant with decent food at reasonable prices. This is a great place, well worth the cost.

Internet seemed to block many sites, all 4 of our devices had issues we have not had elsewhere. It wasn't bad, especially if you have roaming phone. Things like YouTube worked fine, it seemed to be VPNs and downloads that were most affected. It is about a 20 minute walk to the main restaurant area.

Very warm welcome and great staff that made our stay very pleasant. Got an upgrade to the 3rd floor, opposite to the terrace. The terrace is an asset of the hotel. We've been to Comuna 23 and other places, but the view from the hotel is at least as good as from there. The food was delicious, the room very big and clean.

The drain in the bathroom was smelly and unfortunately the surroundings of the hotel are not the nicest. A lot of homeless people strolling around, especially when one gets closer to the city center.

This is a very charming hostel. The best part is downstairs in the lobby area and the restaurant. This is probably the fourth time I’ve stayed at this location over the years. The rooftop terrace is great for city views. I also like the location if you want to stat in Prado district.

The one thing that I think could use some improvement are the televisions. I don’t want to watch claro cable. I’d rather be able to access my streaming services. This hotel would do good to update their televisions to smart ones. Also, I was never able to connect to the Internet from my room. I had to go downstairs and even then it was up and down. The hotel really should invest in a device that amplifies their Wi-Fi signal.

The hotel is absolutely lovely. Nice rooms, hot shower, big comfortable bed and very nice restaurant at a good price. The staff are very friendly and helpful. We loved it here and have booked to come back after a trip to visit friends. There is also a nice roof terrace.

It's a shame you can't walk around comfortably at night around the area where the hotel is. Not a problem for us as we are happy to relax in the evening having dinner and playing cards. It's only a few hundred metres from the metro stop and we had no problems walking to and from with our luggage during the day. There are homeless people on the streets which is sad to see but a fact of life with such poverty in the city.

amazing hotel - food was great, rooftop terrace was great, staff was great. But the location was awful, you couldn't really go out of the hotel without having a taxi waiting for you. Some taxi drivers even asked us "you don't stay here, do you?" In general I'd advise people to stay somewhere in Poblado, as there are most of the restaurants and bars and all the tours start there (at least the ones we did, Communa 13, Pablo Escobar, Guatape). If you do not mind taking taxis everwhere, I highly recommend this hotel! would 10/10 go again!

very good value for money. cute little place with well equipped rooms. The restaurant was offering meals for breakfast lunch and dinner. the rooftop terrace was particularly nice.

the location is quite off handed. there isn’t anything really around and walking down la candelaria neighborhood is not really a nice vista, and completely NOT recommended after sundown. You can get an uber to the hotel which is totally safe but you need to be prepared for a half an hour ride from el poblado where all the restaurants and bars are.
