    We had the best stay in this hostel. The room was spacious (we had a private room) and the staff are exceptional! They would do literally anything for you. They go out of their way to make the guests feel so welcome. Thank you Tatiana and Fabian, you made our stay unforgettable.

    Well located next to the central square. Jair and co do an excellent job in running the hostel. They were able to help us book quite a few activities and they were very communicative - such as whatsapping me the following day's pick up time as soon as it was confirmed.

    Some aspects of the property were a bit run down and in need of refurbishment such as the pool area and bathrooms. Some simple improvements could also be made such as a bed lamp in the room we stayed in as there was only one big room light.

    Very friendly staff and was quiet when we stayed. The place has a rustic charm. If the hostel was full I think it would have been a bit crowded though.

    I really love the location of this place because it's not on a noisy street but yet in an excellent location. They organize activities and the staff is super helpful. The view on the terrace is superb and the pool in great.

    Common bathrooms and showers could use a bit of updating.

    More than satisfied with my one week stay here. The staff were very friendly and helpful the entire time. Wifi was strong though the thick walls in the old house weakened it. I was still able to work without problem. Fantastic location as near the intersection where the best restaurants and cafes emenate from in San Gil and only a block away from the main square.

    The Hostel was great, Just AS you Imagine a cozy place for Backpackers. The kitchen was really Clean and Well equiped. The Common areas provided Games to enjoy time together and the Pool was refreshing, everybody Loved IT so it got a Bit busy from time to time there. Jair was a great Help to Organize pretty cheap adventures activities around town, which worked Out perfectly. We would come Back anytime.

    Great location and base in San Gil, the kitchen could have better supplies (bowls).

    Room could be quite noisy as the door to the hostel was usually open so could hear the busy street, and also the conversations happening in the common area. Also, there was no bowls in the kitchen.

    Great location with a lovely terrace.

    Nothing it was all great 😊

    Everything was great 😊 Dario and the rest of the staff were so friendly and accommodating making us feel very welcome! We booked our canyoning tour through the hostel which was really easy and a great trip. The hostel itself was very clean, probably one of the cleanest kitchens we've used in our 6 month trip in South America. The room was also very clean/comfy with a fan. The location was great and very central close to supermarket, main plaza and restaurants.

    The pillows have a protective cover and I started sweating after some time. After putting a tower over them, everything was fine.

    The owner and personal are exceptionally friendly and competent. The place is safe, quiet at night and easy to reach - only 1 minute walk from the city center and park. Everything is easily within walking distance. The hostel consists actually of 2 buildings close to each other - you can visit both and use both facilities.

    Spent 6 nights at The Best Adventure. The rooms were very clean, affordable, social area by the pool was pleasant and location is one block from central plaza. The hosts were also superb with many great recommendations for local activities and help set up adventures such as rafting. Deivid and Diego were great hosts who went above and beyond by making us feel incredibly welcome, preparing an AMAZING BBQ and providing helpful tips to ensure our trip went smoothly. I would highly recommend this hostel to any travelers!
