    The value for money at this hostel was excellent, with spacious rooms, comfy beds, and the added luxuries of air conditioning and a fan. The location was perfect, close to the bars and nightlife without the noise, and the staff were friendly and helpful throughout our stay.

    The breakfast offerings could be improved with more variety and options.

    The staff at this hostel were extremely friendly and helpful. They went out of their way to assist guests and make them feel welcome. the location of the hostel was perfect, with easy access to the main historic center and the market. the hostel had a cool vibe and a cute atmosphere, creating a comfortable and welcoming environment.

    The shower had very low water pressure, making it difficult to wash hair properly. there was some confusion with the excursion recommendations from the owner.

    I recently stayed at a hostel in Santa Marta and had an exceptional experience. The staff were friendly and provided great advice on local attractions. The location in the historical center was perfect, just a short walk from all the restaurants and bars. The hostel had a charming courtyard where I could relax and unwind. I highly recommend this hostel for a comfortable and enjoyable stay.

    Conveniently located in the city center, this hostel offers well air-conditioned rooms and helpful staff. They assist with organizing trips to nearby areas and provide luggage storage. The included breakfast is a nice bonus. Highly recommended for a comfortable stay.

    We had a fantastic time at this hostel in Santa Marta! The owners were incredibly friendly and always in a great mood. They were so helpful, giving us useful information about the area and even letting us leave our bags while we explored nearby attractions like Parque Tayrona and Minca. The beds were comfortable, the rooms were clean, and the other guests were considerate. It truly felt like a home away from home!

    Great location, close to attractions and restaurants. The staff was really nice and accommodating. The dorm room had air conditioning, making it comfortable to sleep despite the heat. They offered a small breakfast and provided free storage for bags. The hostel had a clean and secure atmosphere, making me feel safe during my stay.

    There was no shared kitchen available for guests to use. This would have been a nice option, especially for preparing meals.

    I had a fabulous stay at a friendly family hostel in Santa Marta. The owners, Toni and his partner, were very welcoming and went out of their way to help me, even though they didn't speak English. The hostel is centrally located, close to banks, restaurants, and the beach. The room was clean and had AC, making it very comfortable. I felt secure as the hostel was always locked. I highly recommend this hostel.

    Hostal Espanolete in Santa Marta exceeded our expectations in every way. The owner, Lukasz, was incredibly welcoming and went above and beyond to ensure our comfort. The staff, including the helpful night manager, provided excellent recommendations and assistance. The location was ideal, close to main streets yet peaceful. Furthermore, the rooms were spacious, the linens and towels were of high quality, and the air conditioning and wifi worked flawlessly.

    Could not be improved in any way.

    The staff was incredibly helpful and welcoming. They gave me detailed advice on what to do and how to get around the city. the breakfast was really nice, especially the cinnamon coffee. the location was perfect, just a short walk away from all the happening spots in the city, but still peaceful enough to have a good night's sleep.

    One thing I didn't really like was that the main door was always closed since the hostel is part of someone's home. It meant that I had to knock every time I wanted to enter.

    Wow, what a stay! The hosts were incredibly friendly and helpful, giving us genuine advice and creating a nice family feel. The location was perfect, close to bars, restaurants, and transportation options. The bed was really comfy and the room was very clean. We also loved having access to free delicious coffee and tea, as well as the opportunity to refill our water bottles. the owner arranged a taxi for us, which made getting around super easy.

    The lack of power points in every bed and the unreliable WiFi in the dorm room were a bit inconvenient. The kitchen was also a disappointment, as it couldn't be used in the mornings and was often dirty with a lot of dishes and pots left out.

    The staff was friendly and helpful, providing assistance with planning activities and giving recommendations. the breakfast had a good variety of options and was included in the price. the location of the hotel was convenient, being close to the beach, bars, restaurants, supermarket.

    The shower lacked water pressure, which made it less enjoyable to use. there was no communal kitchen or fridge available, which would have been useful for preparing our own meals or keeping drinks cold.
