One Day Hostel Reviews

One Day Hostel is a friendly, fun, and cosy hostel in Cartagena's popular Getsemani area. The hostel has a social atmosphere and the location is hard to beat.

The Location

The main hostel hubs in Cartagena are either located in the historical centre or the Getsemani district. This hostel is based in Getsemani and is a fifteen-minute walk from the historical centre. This location means fewer street sellers and tourists, and it's a lot more laid-back. The hostel is down a typical-looking Cartagena side street that is around a five-minute walk from Getsemani's main square. There are a lot of lovely streets to explore surrounding the hostel.

The hostel is a thirty- to sixty-minute taxi ride from the bus terminal depending on the time of day. It's easy to locate from the main street.

Rooms and Bathrooms

The rooms have comfortable bunk beds and clean bedding. There are fans in the room for the warm nights in Cartegena. The rooms are spacious and have small lockers for personal belongings.

The bathrooms are clean, although not all have soap. The showers are cold with decent water pressure. There are some hooks where you can hang your clothes when showering.

Common Spaces

The hostel has a small kitchen for guests to use, and breakfast is also cooked there. The reception has a couple of sofas and plenty of information on what to do in Cartagena. A lot of excursions can be organised through the hostel.

There is an area with tables and sofas next to reception, which is the main social area, as there is no outside space. This area is quite social in the evenings, although guests will mostly leave the hostel to socialise. This is definitely not a party hostel, but it maintains a friendly atmosphere. There is a small library of books and a comfortable sofa next to them where you can sit.

Summary

One Day Hostel is quite small compared to a lot of the big hostels in Cartagena, but it has an intimate atmosphere that means it's still quite social. The location is fantastic and it's an easy walk to the bars, restaurants, and nightlife nearby. It's not a long walk to the historical centre, and the location means you can avoid the crowds.
