I really enjoyed my stay at el cafecito in bogota. The staff were friendly and the owner had a ridiculous amount of knowledge to share about bogota, colombia in general and ecuador. The food is good, the bar is chillled (except when its party time) and there are fellow guests from many latin american countries including colombians, as well as... More

The hostel is in a safe location and quite spacious. The majority of the staff was helpful, besides one odd duck who seemed to have his head in the clouds. The dorm room was alright, but the beds are pretty uncomfortable and there are no lockers. The bathroom was clean but usually missing toilet paper (even after being cleaned). We... More

The lobby area and location of this hotel were great and the prices were reasonable, but our room was terrible. The throw rug was absolutely filthy and had a hair tie from a previous guest and dust and hair balls on the floor. When we asked for a broom, they said it was in a locked cabinet and couldn't give...

After reading the rave reviews of previous guests, we were extremely disappointed. The first morning after our arrival there was no hot water. One empty gas bottle and one with a leak and no one willing to do anything about it until we pushed. We ordered breakfast to fill in time for the gas bottle to arrive. A miserable and... More

We stayed at El Cafecito for four nights and we were blown away by the place. The staff that worked there was so great in helping us find anything and everything in Bogota and Colombia. The building itself is located in a safe side neighborhood off the main road just a quick 2 minute walk to the Transmilio and any... More

I was staying at a place in central Bogota, but felt really unsafe. That's when I encountered this hostal located in a very nice and centrally located area of Bogota. I stayed here for 5 days in mid June, and was absolutely pleased with the quality of the stay. Very nice house, and the staff was extremely nice and helpful.... More

I spent two weeks at "El Cafecito" in Bogota in march/april 2008 and it was a real surprise. The hostal is in a beautifully renovated old victorian, with its own in house cafe, lounge room complete with period furntiure and net access. The vibe is chilled, the staff super attentive and the smells coming from the kitchen simply delicious. The... More

I stayed in the "El Cafecito" from the 2nd to 9th of December. It is a new Hostel in a very beautiful and safe neighborhood in Bogota. You have got access too all the points of interests, there are a lot of beautiful Salsa Bars just in the same street. Even a swiss man can learn to dance (I am... More
