    The bed was not the most comfortable, but is ok for a short stay and then continue to the Amazon rainforest

    The host made me feel very welcome and was very flexible and attentive! Everything was done to make me feel at ease. The place is clearly designed for backpackers, so you have to adapt your expectations accordingly.

    I have stayed in this hostel twice, it is simple but cozy, the garden is great and it is perfect for socializing. The cocktails and fresh juices are great. If you speak Spanish don't miss the chance to chat with Romel, it's worth it!

    The beds are a little squeaky and shaky, room needs more fans. I wouldn't say I liked that my food was sometimes taken from the kitchen by staff. The location is a bit far from centrum, so you gotta take tuktuks for 6000 one way.

    It is nice that the rooms are not very big. There is a beautiful garden, a good place to socialize with other guests. Laundry service is 5000 per kilo. Possibly pay for stay by card, but with %.

    The location is a bit far from the center. The staff doesn't speak any English. The toilets are most of the time not flushing and clogged. The matrasses are very old and uncomfortable.

    This hostel has a really good vibe and a nice garden to chill. The staff is superfriendly and helpful

    Was a bit far from some things, but still easy to walk 20 minutes or so. Just difficult for females to be walking after dark.

    Nomada has a very nice relaxed atmosphere, and the staff is attentive to our needs. They are doing all they can to make your stay comfortable. Such a beautiful patio to relax in or socialize.

    The location is a bit far from the city center (15-20 mins walk, Leticia is safe). The locked portal is a bit annoying too: either Jonathan gives you the key before you leave or you have to ring when you get back, but at one point he didn't hear so I had to wait outside for 5-10 mins. A digicode would be better.

    Jonathan the owner is very nice and helpful, and speaks English. I lost my phone and he lend me his laptop so I could make it ring through Google. I also lost the key of my padlock and he helped me get back my stuff without asking for any extra despite the locker being unusable until he could break the padlock. The breakfast (20k additional) is excellent. Free coffee and water all day. Cool garden ideal to chill (more shade would be great though).

    Super chilled hostel with beautiful and calm garden. The whole hostel is a social project worth to support, running by amazing warm hearted and fun people. There is a well equipped kitchen, a bar, coffee, water, hammocks, a guitar and always good music. They are offering great tours, tattoos, laundry service and are cleaning every day. It's in a calm area, you can still walk to the center or take a tuktuk for 6.000cop. Highly recommended!

    Romel is non-educated and inconsistent with his own word, lies and plays around according to his own personal view, which are not professional at all. He is all about ego. They make a mess with the reservations, playing around renting out the sofas in a complete arbitrary way and moving people between rooms as they want, to increase revenue.

    Pay attention and make sure to call them before. Because they are not organized. I booked through booking but when I arrived they refused to open the door, they just sent a kid to tell me that the hostel is full.

    I booked a room for one night on booking. When I got there at 8pm they greeted me very unpolitely and didn’t even let me in. They left me waiting in front of the closed gate in the dark and then told me the hostel was fully booked. I asked if they could let me in so I could look for another room using their wifi. They let me in but didn’t even help me to look for another place. When I found something (double the price, as of course everything else similar to the price of that hostel was booked out by that time), I still had to wait 20 min in front of the hostel for a TukTuk. They did not offer to pay the difference of the price for the new hostel, neither the additional transportation cost to the other hostel, which in my opinion should have been the minimum.

    There were people sleeping on the couch and on the garden area due to 'overbooking' problems. Quite a strange ambience

    We had a reservation for 1 night, when we arrived at the hostel, manager told us that they were fully booked. At that exact moment I checked online and they still had rooms available. This already happened to other travelers

    Warning - the mattresses are terrible. They're literally a canvas sack stuffed with cotton or something that gives no support whatsoever. It's like sleeping directly on the bare wooden lats lie under the mattress. I tried to double over the mattress to make it slightly more comfortable but it was too stiff to fold, so ended up having to drag a length of (proper) cushion from the living room couch onto the bed to get any sort of sleep. It was my first night in Leticia and I thought "Hey, maybe they don't have access to proper mattresses because it's so remote" but I ended up staying in three more hostels in Leticia and each of them had the normal, standard mattress that any person expects when travelling, so there's no excuse really. I mentioned this to the owner in the morning and she proudly told me that they were "artisinal" mattresses and if I wanted an "orthopaedic" one then I should spend more money to sleep in a hotel. I got the feeling she was used to this complaint. I told her that I'd spent 4 months travelling in latin america and this was the worst mattress I had come across (even in Cuba, where they have very little). She didn't seem to care, which was unusual as she seemed like a nice woman and everything else in the hostel was perfect and geared towards guest comfort. So, just a recommendation for the hostel. Please change the mattresses because they're uncomfortable and hard to sleep on, and it's a shame because your hostel could be so nice otherwise. Gracias !

    Gorgeous hostel, nice vibe and plenty of space. No noise outside at night of dogs barking. Free filtered water in kitchen. Within walking distance to the airport (and its safe to walk alone, even at night)

    They don't have any hospitality and even though they had have the problem of OVERBOOKING with booking.com, they don't try to resolve it. I booked through booking and had a confirmation however, when I arrived at the hostel at 8:00PM in COLOMBIA, they told me that "THE HOSTEL IS FULL." THAT'S IT. NO HELP TO FIND the other place, just accepted to use their WIFI to book the other hostel. I repeat again It was 8:00 PM in COLOMBIA!!! They don't deserve to operate the hostel how they can act like this at 8:00 PM?  They admitted that they had have already the same situation but never have been resolved until today.
