The breakfast provided during my stay was absolutely delicious and varied each morning, offering a pleasant surprise. the decor of the dorms and capsules was interesting and charming, creating a unique atmosphere. the central location of the hotel allowed for easy access to the vibrant streets of the city.
One issue I encountered was the language barrier with the staff, as they did not speak English. This made communication difficult, but they made an effort to overcome this by finding fellow guests who could assist with translation.

The hostel has a great location, as it is close to bars and restaurants, making it easy to explore the local nightlife. Additionally, it is very close to the old town, allowing guests to easily visit the historic sites. The communal area is comfortable, providing a nice space for socializing with other guests.
Some reviews mentioned that the bathroom facilities were basic, which seems to be a common issue in many hostels in the area.

As a business traveler, I loved the cozy and welcoming atmosphere of La Antigua Capsula. the family that runs the hostel is very friendly and knowledgeable, providing great recommendations for tours and taxis. the highlight was the delicious and varied breakfast served every day. the communal area allowed me to meet and socialize with other backpackers, adding to the overall travel experience. the beds were comfortable and private, thanks to the curtains. the hostel's location in Getsemani was convenient and close to both the Walled City and attractions.
Felt really comfortable, no complaints whatsoever.

The breakfast was a highlight of my stay, with delicious and varied options every day. The location of the hotel was also fantastic, situated near two lively squares with great jazz and dancing. the ambiance of the hotel was exceptional, attracting friendly and welcoming travelers.
The hostel seemed to cater more to groups of Colombian residents, which made it less ideal for solo travelers or those who don't speak much Spanish. The lack of peace and quiet in the hostel was also a drawback, with noisy guests playing loud music even late at night.

The hostel was located in a convenient area, close to both the old town and Getsemaní. The owners were very kind and welcoming, making me feel at home during my stay.
There were some cleanliness issues, such as dirty sheets and mold in the rooms. The facilities were also outdated and in need of repair.

I gotta say, I got real bang for my buck at La Antigua Capsula. The room was clean and cozy, with a super comfortable bed and a privacy curtain. The location was spot-on, right in the center and just a short walk to everything. Plus, the staff treated me like a VIP, always friendly and helpful.
When it comes to the breakfast selection, it could use a little sprucing up.

For the value we paid, our stay at La Antigua Capsula was excellent. The room was comfortable and the AC kept it nice and cold. The location in Getsemani was great, close to the Walled City but much more relaxed. The staff treated us with such kindness and were always available to help with any questions or requests.
Breakfast items could have been improved with more variety and options.

Cosy family-run hostel with friendly staff, comfortable beds, and delicious breakfasts. Convenient location near nightlife and other hostels. Safe area with always someone at the front desk. But shh, it's a secret!
