I want to give notice to all travellers not to book at the King's Hostel of Cartagena so that they can spend a pleasant visit in the city. The conditions of the hostel are a disaster and the care is appalling. They have such an administrative mess that can expel you from the hostel at any time as they have no record of anything even though you've paid for! In conclusion, the worst hostel I ever went to in my whole life!

This is the worse hostel you couldn’t probably imagine. The owner pretend to be working as the reception so he don’t have to answer to backpackers requests. He even refused to speak to us when we have questions in regards of the room. I have never met anyone so rude before! Breakfast suppose to be included via hostelworld booking but it was not available at all. We asked if we can cooked the owner said kitchen can only used between 12-10pm. Why called breakfast if is after 12pm?! The air con only switched on from 8pm-2am! The staff only switched it in at 830. MOST OF THE HOSTELS IN THE AREA ALLOWS THE AIR CON UNTIL 8am at least! One bathroom to serve 14 beds and I noticed they don’t change the bedsheet after the previous guest left! You cannot leave baggage here and you have to leave once you checked out, you are not allow to hang around in the hostel after check out. Which hostels does that? Do not stay here, go to next door piano hostel, is 5k cheaper, bigger room, and AC on until 10am in the morning! Majority of the guests I spoken in the hostel are really upset and checked out the next day. Honestly, I usually don’t leave reviews but king hostel leave me no choice. Pls treat your guests with respect, else no one will ever stayed more than one day in your hostel.

By far the worst hostel I stayed in, that said after 7 month of traveling in South America. The owner's attitude was disgusting (just ignored our questions after we paid) and lied to us. There's no breakfast and kitchen is only available after 12pm noon so it's impossible to eat in the morning. Air conditioning only works from 8pm to 2am (yes they turn them off in the middle of the night). Shower is cold and smells like a urinal. Only 4 power outlets for a room of 14 people, and one of them had holes too big and wasn't functioning. They give you paper bracelets to identify you, and if you lose it you have to pay for it. You are not allowed to stay in the hostel perimeter after check-out or even leave the bags, so if you wanna spend the day when having a night bus or go a night at one of the beaches with just the necessities, it's impossible. Do yourself a favor and don't stay here, even though the price is tempting.
