    Cheap hostel with a relaxed atmosphere and really friendly staff. They have a small terrace with a bar. There was even a small concert of a reggae artist on the terrace. Kitchen facilities where ok, but nothing fancy. The only negative thing was the freezing cold air con in the room 'Porro'.

    The place was dirty, never any toilet paper or soap in the bathrooms. Our food was eaten from the fridge. The only positive thing about this place was the air conditioning. That's it, everything else was terrible. I would never stay again. Staff would sleep on the couches in the common space and the kitchen was always occupied by staff. Saw roaches in the bathroom. The fitted sheets on our beds didn't fit and would constantly come off. Not pleasant at all.

    No se hospeden en ese lugar, Es un engaño, las fotos son muy diferente a la realidad, cuando llegue me dieron una habitación muy diferente a la que reserve, estaba sucia, el baño horrible, con mal aspecto y al devolverme y decir que no me quedaba, me robaron, no me devolvieron los $90.000 , aduciendo que no podían, eso se llama robo! Me cobraron un servicio que no utilice, por publicidad engañosa, mi consejo, para todos, cuando lleguen a una hostal , primero antes de cancelar, por favor pidan que le dejen ver la habítacion y así, se evitan malos ratos.

    I definitely do not recommend it, the photos and descriptions differ too much from reality. The rooms are extremely small and poorly presented. The kitchen and dining room are in unsanitary conditions. The Deluxe Double Room has nothing "Deluxe" about it; There is no quality-price relationship, because for the price we paid we could have gotten better things. Too bad it didn't occur to me to take photos. Location: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Facility Condition: ⭐⭐ Cleanliness and Hygiene of the Establishment: ⭐ Staff Attention: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

    If you want something good, nice and cheap, this place is perfect, they offer rooms with air conditioning included for reasonable prices, cozy atmosphere, safe above all.

    It was not good at all. We paid 100 000 Pesos for a room in the basement without window. There was not even a space for our two luggages. No blankets. Dirty bathroom. Dirty walls. Window between private and shared bathroom had a hole.. really not good. It's a shame to offer such a room to guests. Ok. Cartagena is an expensive place. I have no high expectations. But what iguanas hostel had to offer was not good at all. The receptionist tried to help a lot. Nice guy! Owner was not helpful at all. We checked in at 10.30 pm. Paid the charge in dollars. Wanted to have change in Pesos to be able to get some food from a restaurant close by. From owner offered exchange rate was beyond any acceptable rate and she just changed half of my requested amount (20 Dollars instead of 40).. end of the story.. I couldn't get any food anymore. Had to check out at 4am. WiFi signal in the room was to weak to be used.. all in all... very bad!

    Iguana's House is a really nice family owned hostel. It is a little small but had everything I needed. And it was really close to all of the party and important parts of town. Air conditioned dorms were nice instead of sweating all night. Thanks guys. Senor Quitto rocks!

    (Translated by Google) Be very careful entering here, the bathrooms are very dirty, and the people are somewhat dangerous, I did not want to take the hostel because of the state of the facilities, but the lady who attends wanted to charge me the same way, to the point that it closed padlocked the door and held me back, I had to call the police. I don't recommend it at all. (Original) Tengan mucho cuidado de entrar aqui, los baños están muy sucios, y las personas son un tanto peligrosas, no quise tomar el hostal por el estado de las instalaciones, pero la señora que atiende me queria cobrar de igual forma, a tal punto que cerró la puerta con candado y me retuvo, tuve que llamar a la policía. No lo recomiendo para nada.

    (Translated by Google) Many factors to improve, if it is an emergency stay it happens but not to last more than one night (Original) Muchos factores para mejorar, si es una estadía de emergencia pasa pero no para durar más de una noche

    The private rooms are horrible. The mattresses are so old that you always go towards the middle. The cleaning is not true, our bathroom was always dirty and without paper. The rooms are next to a nightclub so you won't be able to sleep until after 3 a.m. I went to ask the person in charge and he told me that it is normal because it is next to a nightclub but in booking they don't say anything that they are next to a nightclub (literally it is as if I had the nightclub in my room) I don't recommend it at all, it's in the center but you won't be able to sleep until after 3-4 a.m. Awful

    I do not recommend this hostel at all. For 100 thousand pesos a night I stayed much better. For the price you pay it is expensive. When we arrived it was a super super super small room with a private bathroom, good that you could hear everything that the world was doing (right next door they have the shared showers) WE CLAIMED THAT WE COULD NOT STAY IN SUCH A SMALL ROOM and they changed us to a bigger room but the bathroom was outside the room, but this is not the worst. THE HOSTEL is next to a nightclub and so are the rooms, so it is impossible to sleep because you are in bed and it is in the nightclub at the same time as well. Besides, there is no mechanism to prevent noise, our “private” bathroom on the stairs is super dirty and always without paper or soap. The bed in the room is super old and me and my boyfriend were placed on the sides because it had a hole in the middle because of how worn the mattress was. If you want to pay not to sleep, it is the ideal place. //// I don't recommend anything from this auberge. For 100,000 pesos a night, I'll stay in a very good auberge. Pour le prix que vous payez, c'est cher. Nous nous sommes plaints que nous ne pouvions pas rester dans une si petite chambre et ils nous ont change pour une chambre plus grande mais la salle de bain était à l'extérieur de la chambre, mais ce n'est pas la pire chose: l 'auberge est à côté d'une discotheque and the chambres sont impossible à slumber parce que vous êtes au lit et vous êtes dans la discothèque en même temps. Our "privée" bathroom stall can be found on the stairs that are outside and every day without paper or savon. The room's light is three old and my petit friends and my planes are habituated to our lives all along the coasts of the light and there is a trou au milieu du lit because of the worn matelas. If you want to pay to sleep, this is ideal.

😠 A very bad rip-off experience: My review concerns the restaurant (not the hotel). A tour from Cartagena took us to this place to eat lunch which was "included" in the price. When we arrived at the restaurant, the waiter asked us whether we wanted to eat fish, shrimps, ceviche (and some other option...
