Travelers who already trust Casa Colibrí.
For a one night, it's ok. Good location, felt safe for Bogota. The bathroom was not very clean. Very old mattress and pillow.
It was good worker are so nice
A strange hostel in its own proud way, in the end it will win you over (hopefully). No kitchen, no common areas - but an entire pub(ish) place under your bed, with music and all. Good lockers, great Wi-Fi, location A+, good value.
