Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Adults-only policy — The hostel does not accommodate children, so it's not suitable for families travelling with kids.
- No on-site parking — There's no parking listed, which could be a drawback if you're driving in Cali.
- Check-in window is 15:00–23:00 — If you arrive outside these hours, you'll need to plan ahead as the hostel doesn't offer 24-hour front desk service.
- Shared dorms are basic — The 6-bed dorm offers a shared room with shower, coffee machine, and air conditioning—but little else, and it may not suit those seeking privacy.
