The Sugar Cane hostel

Natalie and the whole entire staff is more than nice and accommodating. This is the perfect hostel if your looking for affordable and quite. They have been so helpful and accommodating. I’ve never felt so welcomed and at home in a hostel. The staff truly cares about its tenants and they are so kind and welcoming. Natalie went above and beyond to help me, even with things outside of the hostel. Fully recommend this place 100%

Cons - no hot water even in showers - 6 bed room no window or air conditioning - sweat box - Bad WiFi in rooms Pros - Very well equipped kitchen - nice roof terrace - nice staff. - Good WiFi in communal areas Overall: Nice hostel with lovely staff but would not pay 60k COP/night again for no hot water and boiling rooms.

This was a really nice hostel to stay at. The couple that runs the place were super lovely!! The location is incredible and you can get everywhere in the centre quite quickly on foot. There’s a supermarket only a few minutes walk away too. The rooms were quite nice but very very hot so needed air con rather than just a fan. The terrace is super chill and it’s a nice place to stay. Would stay again if they added air con.

Great hostel. It's on the smaller side which in many cases makes it more social which I love. This is far from a party hostel, but we never had trouble meeting people on the rooftop. Showers were hot, beds were good enough. The owner Gunther is awesome. As a non Spanish speaker it was great to have someone who was fluid in English to ask about things to do. He booked us on multiple tours all of which were great. Fresh bananas upstairs and free breakfast are icing on the cake. I would love to see the rooftop stay open until 12 instead of 11, it makes it difficult to have fun unless you want to go to the bars. However, overall it was great and I can't wait to come back.

One of my favourite hostels I've ever stayed at. The staff at this hostel are exceptional, went above and beyond to help me with some issues I had with my motorcycle. I cannot say enough good words about the owners and the lovely receptionist. Such friendly and caring people. Thanks again for all your help, it wont be forgotten.

I stayed 2 nights and ended up extending 2 more. The owner Nathaly is so friendly and helpful! The rooftop is very nice. The showers (at least the one with the gray tiles) has consistently hot water. The overall vibe is this is not a party hostel (which is what I wanted). I recommend it.

I’ve stayed in a lot of hostels but this one was by far my favorite. The owner of the Hostel, Nathalie is happy to help with anything, the location is perfect, the staff, Milena and Anderson are AMAZING and so sweet! I absolutely loved the atmosphere in the hostel and I’m really sad to leave. If you’re looking for a place to stay in Medellin, don’t look any further, you just found the perfect hostel.

Great location. Close to a metro station, a huge grocery store, and lots of bars and restaurants. The staff were great. They were all very friendly and helpful. Loved the dining set up. It consists of just one huge table so everyone ends up talking during breakfast and dinner. It was easy to make friends. I'd recommend joining the Sunday barbecue, good food and it's a great way to get to know fellow guests. Breakfast was included, though there could be a long wait in the morning because it's DIY and people are lining up to use the stove. About the rooms, I found em spacious and the beds were really comfy. There were electrical outlets for every bed, though there weren't any lockers inside the rooms. The ones provided outside were huge enough to fit my valuables though so it was okay. If i have one complaint it was that the wifi was slow and frequently spotty. I had to go outside to do my part time online work. If you don't mind the spotty wifi, this is a hostel I'd recommend in Medellin.
