It
has
all
the
commodities
expected
in
a
hostel
with
some
plusses.
As
a
hostel,
you
won't
expect
much
attention
to
the
details,
but
they
keep
it
neat,
in
general.
The
room
was
comfortable,
with
AC,
clean
sheets
every
day,
own
toilet
and
shower
(which
was
huge).
We
stayed
in
a
three-bed
room,
which
was
separated
by
a
door
giving
some
privacy,
in
case
it
was
needed.
You
feel
almost
like
you
have
your
private
beach
as
it
is
kind
of
secluded.
For
that
same
reason
do
not
expect
to
have
everything
close.
After
all,
if
you
are
travelling
to
Santa
Marta
you
are
going
to
walk
around
a
lot.
The
hostel
staff
was
really
nice,
welcoming,
helpful
and
friendly.
That
said,
the
restaurant
staff
(who
I
think
might
be
external
to
the
hostel)
was
not
such.
But
that's
sort
of
the
feeling
I
got
from
every
restaurant
in
the
city.
That's
why
I
don't
give
them
lower
grade.
There
were
two
consecutive
weddings
that
limited
access
to
a
short
area,
but
wasn't
that
big
of
a
problem.
The
pool,
I
never
got
to
used
it
as
it
always
had
some
trash
in
it.
Looked
dirty,
but
anyway,
I'm
not
a
big
pool
user.
Why
a
pool
when
you
have
the
sea.
The
restaurant
open
for
breakfast
quite
late
(8:00)
and
doesn't
have
much
variation.
They
serve
the
basics,
and
I
usually
go
for
the
typical
of
the
region,
from
which
they
only
serve
"Arepa'e
huevo".
Never
ate
lunch
there,
so
I
can't
say
if
it
was
any
good,
but
is
kind
of
the
same
they
serve
anywhere
in
town:
meat,
chicken
or
fish
with
rice,
plantain
and
sallad.
In
general,
many
parts
of
Santa
Marta
have
not
access
to
water
supply,
which
can
cause
that
the
hostel
runs
out
of
water
anytime.
This
happen
to
us
twice.
They
get
water
from
a
tank
truck,
which
can
be
late
or
maybe
it
is
just
bad
planning.
We
spend
NYE
at
the
hostel.
They
offered
a
dinner
which
was
totally
OK.
Not
good,
not
bad,
just
OK.
Welcome
drinks,
starters,
buffet
with
chicken
or
meatloaf,
wine
and
grapes
for
the
NY.
There
wasn't
much
party,
but
again
it
was
not
their
fault.
There
was
a
private
wedding
at
the
ground
floor
(who
marries
on
NYE?)
and
the
music
was
divided...
A
who-plays-louder
competition.
We
got
to
see
some
fireworks
by
the
beach
which
was
superb
.
In
summary,
are
you
looking
for
a
place
close
to
the
sea,
quiet,
far
from
the
crowded
city,
affordable
and
you're
open
to
walk
further
for
other
facilities.
This
might
be
your
place.
