    You can really see it's a hostel made by backpackers - it's all a backpacker can dream of: clean, so many places to hang your stuff!!! All types of hammocks and a beautiful sunset spot. Decoration is lovely, too. We loved it here and stayed "ona noche mas" for a week...

    Great building, it's like half open so always feels fresh and well lit, while staying dry when it rains. Amazing communal areas (great terrace). Very friendly and helpful staff! At least three different showers and toilets, so no queue.

    Everything was magical.

    Without a doubt this is the best hostel in Colombia. It is filled with color and joy, making every moment you spend there fantastic. Comfortable beds, real sheets and an owner, Gerard, with high octane energy that is infectious. All you will find here are endless smiles and new friends. If Michelin gave stars to hostels, this would be a 3 star. Worth the trip to San Augustin just to stay at Hostal Bambu.

    location, the shakshuka is very tasteful (nice to no not have the regular eggs and toast), hot water in the shower Stephanie is very friendly, she also arranged the bus when we were leaving for Popayan

    This was a little gem of a hostel in a great location in San Agustín. Stefanie was a most wonderful host. She really has thought of everything - from tour books, a clean & well-equipped kitchen, a gorgeous rooftop terrace, book exchange, ... I could go on. She was also super helpful in organising a trip to the adrenaline park and sorting our bus for onward travel. We used the laundry service here too and it was great. Staying here felt like staying at a friend's house. If we were ever to return to San Agustín we would not hesitate to stay here again.

    Really lovely hostel in good location in San Agustin. It has a good kitchen and nice bathrooms, and incredible roof terrace! It was very quiet when I was there but nice to have the place almost to myself. Stefanie was very helpful and sweet and there are also 3 cute cats that live there. I didn’t, but you can very easily arrange some awesome looking tours through the hostel too. Thank you for the stay :)

    Great hostel. Super clean, beds very comfy and nice that not bunk beds in the dorm. Guest kitchen was so clean and well stocked. Rooftop terrace had amazing views and lots of comfy seats for chilling. Location was fantastic, close to centre of town and a big supermarket, and amazing pizza place a couple of doors down. But the staff, especially Stefanie, were wonderful. Nothing was too much trouble and she was so helpful and caring - she even checked I made it to my next destination safely. Stay here, you won’t regret it!

    Hostal Bambú is one of the best hostels I've been to. I immediately felt at home here. It has a very cozy atmosphere and you easily get to know other travelers here. A big thank you to the wonderful staff! I would recommend this place 100% when you visit San Agustín.
