Stayed at Casa Ventura for carnival, it is a basic hostel but it felt safe, clean and had friendly staff. The area is also a very safe and friendly neighbourhood. The rooms were not too big with a lot beds but if this doesn’t bother you then this hostel is perfectly fine for staying in for carnival

The property isn’t as it was listed on hostel world but I still had a good time. Was in Barranquilla for the carnival so didn’t spend much time in the hostel. Was messaged on WhatsApp and asked to go to different hostel to my booking due to system error, it was more like staying in someone’s spare room in their house, but the owner was very friendly and kind although couldn’t speak any English if we had questions. If needing a clean safe place to stay this is ok

The place is simply beautiful, with French-style architecture and design, the facilities themselves are impeccable, the service is unbeatable, the area is super safe and quiet, however it is strategically located close to the party areas for the carnival, transportation is easy to take, the beds are of quality with light and energy.
