Bathrooms weren't very clean during the afternoon hours

Excellent location, close to one of the best restaurants in Bogota and easy walks to convenient stores. The staff was lovely and if you are looking for a short stay I think this place is perfect.

Staff were a little frosty. Breakfast service was about 2 hours give or take for our large group which sort of puts you on the back foot for the day. Towels had (I hope) makeup stains on them and they only provided 2.

Super safe neighbourhood, maybe even a little too upscale for a backpackers. Rooms are laid out well. Felt secure

Ok, here was my only issue, but it's a common one in Bogotá. The rooms aren't heated, and they don't have space heaters. I get cold easily and so sometimes an extra blanket isn't enough. If you're used to that, or don't get cold easily, you won't have any problem. Thanks for the wonderful accommodations, Trip Monkey Zona G.

First off, Trip Monkey is actually a hostel with some private rooms (which is what we rented). It's not an issue, but just to know. If you're expecting a full service hotel, it's not. Then again, for their very fair prices, you shouldn't expect a hotel. The staff was amazing and the location is great. In the middle of phenomenal restaurants and about a 15 minute walk to the center of Chapinero. The rooms are basic but well kept and clean. Big plus (and the reason we booked) - they are super pet friendly and didn't charge extra for having our dog with us. All in all, we had a great stay and would recommend staying here if you want to be in Zona G, you can't go wrong!

If it wasn't for the bathrooms I would give 10 stars BUT what bothered me was that there were really no hooks or tables or anything where you could put your clothing, towels and toiletries. I don't like to put my hygiene products and clothes on a floor or toilet. I write this in the review because it's a really easy fix. It will not take much time and money to implement this change. Another minus was that one of the bathrooms was full of mold and I am. Not talking about a little bit because you almost find this everywhere. There were two bathrooms and luckily the other was fine but the moldy one was the worst I've ever seen in any hostel.

The staff was really friendly and polite. What I also liked was the big comfortable beds. Bigger than usually in a hostel and I also liked that everyone had a small drawer for personal belongings. The location was quite which I liked and not too many people in the hostel but still very lively.

The kitchen equipment could be renewed, knifes and pans were in a very bad condition. Similarly some of the room furniture.

We liked the outside area, Alejandra from the staff was very helpful in everything we needed or asked. The bathroom was very regularly cleaned and they had conditioner! We loved the shared kitchen, a great place to meet people. The area is very nice, it had a nice park with playground and a small river 10 mins walking away.

This might not bother some people, but my room had a massive window looking directly at street lights with thin glass. This meant it was super noisey and really bright deputed the blind all night. It would be ok if you're happy with good ear plugs and an eye mask. The venue could consider getting something that blacks out the light more. Plus, soundproofing that window a bit would help heaps

Staff were lovely and the location is great. It felt very safe and easy

The price rose from one day to the next, not cheap. Price almost like a private room in another hotel. WC was not clean, and there is mold in the shower

Bed was spacious, big lockers, great attention. Bed was very comfortable.

Very good location in Chapinero with plenty of nearby coffee shops and restaurants. They also have their own nice coffee shop with live music and tasty coffee. The staff is exceptionally helpful. Overall a great value for money.

The privat room where we stayed definitely needs some maintenance (parquet was super noisy, wardrobe door is barely sliding, position of the plugs, lighting in the bathroom, shower courtain). Shared kitchen is not well equipped and it feels a bit old. A kettle would have been useful.

The location is excellent, you can find cafés, street food, restaurants, bars and all the necessary services nearby. Bus stop is just a few minutes walk. The area is safe and quiet. The staff was friendly and helpful. We really liked the small café with its patio area. Comfy bed, large window. You can buy local sim card at the reception desk.

The staff English knowledge was limited, so be prepared to speak some basic Spanish.

Very well located in a safe neighbourhood close to some good high end restaurants, but also very good cheap restaurants. Also close to some good bars and Theatron is on walking distance. Taxi to the historic centre is about 7500 - 10000 COP so easy for day trips. Staff is nice and the coffee bar attached to the hostel is great and also serves food breakfast.

Shower and toilet are not ensuite. They are a few steps across a common hallway. Door is padlocked. Padlock wasn't reliable and in the end I gave up on trying to access because I was leaving anyway.

Reasonable room Clean Natural light (Stayed in a private room) Hot water available

It’s definitely still a hostel - it can get very loud late at night on the weekends.

Beautiful, great location, good facilities.

Stayed in November 2023

Its to loud, the nights are not that quiet being located to close to the road.

The Hostel is very clean, the staff ok. The Managers of the bar /coffee are excellent hosts, the breakfast great and they know (Santiago and Juan) how to make you feeling at home easily.

The windows allowed a lot of noise into the room, which didn't bother us for our short stay but may be irritating over a longer visit. There was a small stain on the duvet cover. There were two covers provided so we just removed the one with the stain!

The location of Trip Monkey was fantastic! There was a wide array of restaurants and cafes just around the corner. It is also a short taxi to all the main tourist attractions, such as the Museo del Oro. The staff were friendly and helpful.

The street noise was very noisy at night. We required the use of earplugs to sleep. The private shower in our room was hot for 10seconds than cold again so we had to use one of the communal showers that was significantly better with constant warm/hot water.

Lots of fantastic restaurant options around the hostal.
