Nice rooms, good communal ares, lots of places to chill out. Big, well stocked guest kitchen. Helpful staff. Like this hostal, but id probably opt to stay in a different neighbourhood if i came back to Cali. This neighbourhood is safe...but not the most happening.

We only stayed here for one night but we enjoyed our stay. The room was big and clean and we had the shared bathroom to ourselves. It's a good place to stay near ish the bsu station, rather than all the way downtown. The only problem was when we tried to leave there was no one on the desk. This... More

I have stayed in many hostels in Colombia over the past 6 years and the Iguana ranks up there amongst my top 10 favorites. Why? It provides the winning combination ... The Iguana is located in an attractive, safe and quiet neighbourhood, in the Granada district in the northern part of Cali, it is walking distance to everything from supermarkets... More

The place was crowded with 20-somethings and they partied until well past midnight. We actually blogged about this place because it was so extreme. The place is obviously well-known with the young international-traveler party crowd. The staff, cleanliness, and facility met good standards. However hot water was in limited supply, and we got some bug bites. However, we survived it... More

I stayed here for three days this month in a private room 55,000 pesos(£19) and thought to be overpriced, no hot water despite being told that there was, no breakfast except for coffee and no tv in the room. 45,000 pesos would be a more realistic price. I didn't get the feeling that this was a sociable hostel at all.... More

What amazing loving people. Mary has always got the time and energy to help with anything you ask and has a beautiful smile on her face all the time. Mary even lent me her sandles to go out dancing for the night! The free salsa class is lots of fun and thanks to all the girls for showing us such... More

The staff were really helpfull and nice. The neighboor is really nice and near a lot of bars, restaurants and places where you can dance, drink and enjoy the capital of salsa. Near the bus MIO main transport in Cali. Though the rooms are not so bright, the beds are comfortable and really clean.

The hostel is in a good location, in nice residential neighbourhood. Staff was great. Both buildings were very clean and had strong WiFi. The main hostel has social atmosphere. They offer salsa and spanish classes. I have nothing negative to say about my stay. I stayed in a room facing the street (the only room facing the street) which was... More
