Una chimba!

El Zoo Hostel es un lugar Top, todo el complejo está repleto de la buena energía que transmiten sus propietarios. Juan y Diego son maravillosos. Amables y preocupados en todo momento de la estancia. Un sitio donde uno se siente querido y como en casa. Espero volver algún día. Lo mejor de Palomino.

Great value and good vibes

Really chill vibes. Great location and value for money . Personal fan and mosquito net per bed. Free break fast and good Happy Hour at Bar on cocktails. El zoo restaurant next door . Lots of bathroom and showers. Showers could be cleaned more regular as the sand is everywhere . Pool table , laundry service is also really fast ans efficient. Would recommend!

Central hostel for exploring Palomino

- Central location, close to restaurants, bars and beach - Dorm bed with power outlets, mosquito net, fan and lockers.

- Too many cats roaming around freely, sleeping in dorm beds. - Pool table is off level and located too close to fence to be able to manoeuvre cue. - Social activities organisation was pretty poor. - Gave us zero information or recommendations about what else is happening around town.

Relaxing

This place is amazing ❤️ The salaries are really lovely. The atmosphere is really friendly and enjoyable ✨ The beds are really good with a fan for each person, it is really comfortable.

The showers are okay. Sometimes the flow wasn’t really strong so it took a time to take a shower. But it is just a detail. It is super okay.

Disappointing

- the mosquito net did nothing, I got horribly bitten every night. - the most unfriendly staff ive met in any hostel ive been at, very bizzare. I interacted with numerous staff and they all acted in that same way. The girls seemed stuck up and competitive or something of the sort. As if they are high school mean girls or something. This especially so with a red headed girl and a brunette who was always with her. I mean you are a volunteer for petes sakes, you arent there to make clicks or act stuck up to paying guests. Also my last night I extended and when I atrived they had made the bed and there was nothing on it. I told the guy at reception (he sounded like a local) he didnt believe me and made me go show him. I also told him that i didnt remember if i had left stuff on the bed, instead of apologizing or saying he would ask the cleaning staff he was like, well at least now you got a bottom bed and also said ask the new person who got the bed if any of my stuff had been left there, very incompetent and obtuse person.

You get what you pay for

Value for money is ok. Clamping tent spacious. Fresh scrambled eggs for breakfast. Dorm has its own fan and mosquito net.

Some volunteers were very nice, others seemed annoyed when you asked something. Kitchen almost dirty. Fridge extremely dirty. Bathrooms not very clean, especially in the evening. Toilet paper was often missing. Wi-Fi only worked well in the pool area. Not in the glamping area. Music plays from 8am to 11pm. Depending on which volunteer works at the reception, the music is sometimes louder or sometimes quieter. A little bit annoying when they play „Rammstein“ at 9am in the morning… In the evening the music is usually louder. If you want to sleep earlier, you have to live with it. A lot of construction noise on the property. Breakfast is more of a snack. Sun beds are missing!!! The wooden benches are semi-comfortable.

Very good

The glamping tent we stayed in was so much nicer than we were expecting, it felt very private and we had our own hammock and a fan inside the tent

The wifi didn’t reach our tent

Great location and vibe

Great location and vibe. Nice pool. Met some lovely people here. Clothes lines to hang stuff. They organise some activities and there's also a place where you can book Tubing, right at the hostel. Co-working space with air-con

The kitchen could be a bit better equipped. The bathrooms weren't that clean. They messed up my payment. I was told at the end of my stay, that I should pay for the accommodation, even though I had paid at the beginning. I thankfully paid by card, so I could prove it. If you pay in cash, ask for a receipt.

Normal

The pool was very good and the bed was comfortable

The cleanness was no so good in the bathrooms, floor in the room was dirty and the smell of cats is everywhere, no so good if you don't like cats or if you are allergic.They can be everywhere and nobody cares. (walking in the dishes, in the bar in your face and in your drinks). Customer service? there is not at all they barely say hi to you and barely say goodbye and that's it.

Nice vibe, perfect place to stay

Amazing staff, great atmosphere, clean rooms. Beachvolleyball field and pool. It is a very cosy place, where you can feel at home.

Everything was cool, just some tiny improvements: There could be more kitchen equipment for cooking. If the mirrors by the dorms had light, that would have been amazing.

Good hostel for 30k COP

Very good hostel!

Bed in bigger dorm had a bit of a smell. Nothing tragic but the mosquito net and blinds could do with some cleaning.

Nice pool and central location

Honestly the reviews i read about this hostel being dirty are sadly so true. If you care at all about hygiene I wouldn’t recommend staying here. The pool and bar/breakfast area are totally fine but the rooms and bathrooms are questionable at best.
