The Cranky Croc Hostel

One of our favorite hostels in the world! Cozy, quiet sleeping quarters, a charming and well-maintained building, a busy calendar of optional events, delicious food and drink available, friendly staff always available to help or answer questions. We stayed as a family of four (two parents and two teens) and we were so happy with our choice.

Stayed here twice because it was so good. The pods are such a nice idea for enough privacy but also allow for socialising, the bunks are also comfortable, the staff is always helpful and the hostel is located quite well in the middle of la candelaria but in the hostel it’s very quiet and it always smelled very nice. The kitchen is equipped enough to properly cook and the movie rooms allows for some chill time.

Nice building, great location, clean and great staff!

Had such a lovely stay here. Great amenities (especially the in-house bar/restaurant), the best staff, and a warm atmosphere. Maybe just a little more attention to the showers, but otherwise everything was fantastic. Thanks to the whole team for creating such a great place.

Really nice hostel, great rooms, private and super spacious! Facilities could be little cleaner but was fine. Also was okay social, but not really any events. Big negative was, a roommate got their credit card stolen out of his bed during the day! Staff didn’t really do anything about it..

Great place, very helpful staff

The facilities at this hostel are the nicest I’ve ever had at a hostel- I was basically in my own little room, it was so nice. There’s very little social atmosphere, but I don’t think many hostels in Bogota are social atmosphere all. It was nice to be able to relax here in my own space for once and have a large, clean, well equipped kitchen for once as well

Au top, je recommande fortement l’emplacement ! Ils ont tout, une terrasse pour fumer mais aussi un bar dans les parties communes, avec même une table de ping pong. Une réception h24 qui assure un service et une sécurité de qualité ! Les employés sont professionnels et accueillants, prompt à aider et à conseiller. Et puis la localisation est vraiment top, à proximité des universités, beaucoup d’endroit où manger, ou boire un café mais aussi prendre un verre en écoutant de la ...

Lovely hostel to stay at but I didn’t find it the most social. Rooms are so nice and the staff are amazing

Erg leuk en vriendelijk 👌🏼

Superbe auberge, les dortoirs avec box privatives offre une intimité plus qu’appréciable. Le personnel est sympathique et à l’écoute. Les espaces communs sont de taille et la cuisine très bonne. Je recommande

I only stayed very briefly to catch a flight so can’t comment on food/social side of things but I really appreciated how clean it was and being given a towel!

Todo perfecto !

mon deuxieme sejour dans cette auberge! très bonne auberge avec cuisine et restaurant. chambre privée individuelle un peu petite mais okay pour quelques nuits.

Nice hostel in bogota in a great neigborhood!

Heel fijn hostel!! Ik kom zeker terug! De voorzieningen zijn in orde en de kamers top. Het personeel super vriendelijk! Aanrader!

I loved everything about this hostel and would even say it’s one of the best hostels I have stayed in. It’s perfectly located, and the pods in the dorms are such a great idea if you enjoy meeting people but still want your own privacy. The food was very good, and the common area was great ideal for a relaxing coffee in the morning or later in the afternoon when it gets busier for a cocktail, a beer, or simply to meet other people. The place was also very clean, and all the staff were so love...

Love the architecture and style of the building, super pretty and very clean! The only thing we didn’t like, was the dorm rooms don’t have locks on the doors. Bar was fun and staff were great! Felt safe, front door was locked and there was always staff inside.

I enjoyed my time here. The reception is open 24hours. I stayed in the 6 bed pod rooms. I think the rooms are bad for socialising as everyone just goes into their little pod and closes their curtains. However, the privacy is nice and helped to relax at night. The hostel restaurant does great coffee and breakfast, and this is a great opportunity to meet ppl. They also offer events like walking tours, but I thought they were a little expensive so didn’t do it. I did my laundry here at 30k/kg

One of the best hostels I’ve stayed at in Colombia! Great location and functional, clean facilities. Helpful and friendly staff. My only complaint is that I ordered the French toast for breakfast and it was very soggy which is not how French toast should be in my opinion haha. Breakfast portions were also a bit small.
