Rente 2 habitaciones y nos gustó mucho el lugar! Está frente al muelle para salir a diferentes playas, nosotros nos fuimos hasta Cabo San Juan! Lugar muy bello. Tiene restaurants caminando, los taxis muy cerca para trasladarse a Santa Marta o aeropuerto. Sin duda lo recomiendo al 100! Mil gracias al Viña del Mar staff!

This is a nice little (inexpensive) hotel with a central location right on the waterfront walkway. The hotel was clean and comfortable. The staff was accommodating and friendly. English is spoken. To note, due to it's location on the waterfront walkway and beach if you have a waterfront room it will be very, very noisy with mariachi music, barking/fighting dogs, loud motorbikes and people partying. This quiets down around 10pm at night. The interior rooms are quiet.

excellent view of the bay...

Hotel rooftop gives a 360 view of the bay. My room looked directly on the beach giving me a perfect view of the sunset. For some it might be a bit loud at night, I was there for carnival so the street was very busy, with people is all ages. I was witness to many moments of tenderness ,

Bed bucks

Hostel is bed buck infested. Everyone in our room got bites everywhere. I strongly recommend to stay away from Taganga. The town is very run down, high crime, empty bars and clubs, no good restaurants, rip off prices, barely any foreign tourists and a lot of shady and weird people around who try to sell you drugs all the time

El hostal está muy bienes ubicado, si lo que quieres es acceso a la playa y a las lanchas que te lleven a otros lugares, pero por eso esta sobre la calle principal y es muy ruidosa, con música a todo volumen todo el tiempo, hasta altas horas de la noche. Difícil descansar.

Disliked: Staff & service, room comfort
El hostal tiene entrada desaseda, el WiFi no funciona, la TV no es buena (parece antena de aire), el agua de la ducha es salobre, el colchón se hunde, éramos 6 personas y solo había una cama doble 1.40, un camarote y una base cama debajo del camarote, espacio muy pequeño, cuando llegamos la habitación no estaba bien aseada, tenía arena en el piso y camas, no conocía Taganga, pero la playa frente al hostal es un puerto de embarcaciones y al parecer pesquero y el olor es horrible, a marisco, los restaurantes en la orilla carísimos y desaseados, mucha mosca y poca variedad en platos, la verdad no lo recomiendo para ir en familia, más bien solo adultos y el precio es relativamente costoso respecto a lo que ofrece el hostal, no reciben tarjeta crédito ni débito, solo efectivo, entonces no se para que piden los datos de la TC. Resalto que el aire acondicionado es excelente, el personal es amable y el aseo al día siguiente fue muy bueno, el WiFi solo funcionó en la recepción el último día.

Très bel emplacement

L’hotel est très bien situé près de la plage. Il y a une terrasse sur le toit où l’on peut s’asseoir et y admirer le coucher du soleil. Il y a une petite cuisine avec frigo et bbq pour préparer sa bouffe. Un marché est situé pas loin sur la même rue. Chambre propre, mais douche à l’eau froide. C’est un endroit tranquille.
