Just spent 2 nights at Casa Blanca and it´s a great choice in Cali, and one of the most convenient locations. A block away is Ave 6ta which has loads of bars and night clubs, restaurants, etc and the neighborhood is safe. If you are coming in at night this is a good choice because it´s not too far from...

We spent here 3 nights and found this hostel to be nice. The room we got was quite big and clean with nice furniture (this was the superior double). The bathrooms are all shared but they are clean. The only thing not so great is the fact that the shower has low pressure if you want to get hot water.... More

We stayed two nights at the Casa Blanca in July 2012. It was really disappointing. We were travelling from the Ecuadorian border so had checked out their website beforehand. Our expectations were raised. Yes, they do have a kitchen, a large fridge with cool water dispenser and a gas stove with an oven but the staff on day duty did... More

It is actually designer furniture in the TV-room and in the eating area of this hostel. And that is, and I am sad to say it, is not very good. What do you think is most pleasant: Hanging out in a cheap, but soft IKEA-sofa or a hard and good looking designer sofa? Exactly. But as there is a Danish/Colobian... More

I am pretty chocked to read the less flattering reviews of this place and wonder if these people have seen other hostels in South America. This hostel is cheap (22 USD for a private double room) and I think these people should have paid for a hotel. We traveled 8 months from Alaska to Ushuaia and stayed 3 days here... More

This hostel is great, clean and modern with an excellent lounge area with a big TV and DVDs. We stopped in Cali to break up the long bus rides from Quito to Bogota. Cali however is just not a nice city. We went to the zoo which was great and there are a couple of nice places to eat at... More

Not very impressed with this hostal, but also were not impressed with the city in general and should have listened to all of the guidebooks that warned that Cali was a gritty city that is not as interested in tourism as other cities, meaning not as welcoming to tourists. The hostal itself is located very close to Avenida 6 which... More

Yes, it is a stop for motor cyclists, nothing more. It is partially my fault that didn't check the reviews. I should say, I hate hostels that do not provide hand soap! Not only I feel filthy, everything and everyone seem filthy. There are quiet time rules that nobody cares about, the staff do not have helpful information, for every... More
