The breakfast is lovely! ##### Joel Stayed 4 nights in Mar 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Cody Dec 18, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities My stay here was fantastic. The staff members were so hospitable, kind, helpful and friendly in every moment, and also gave great recommendations. I particularly enjoyed the cooking class and the restaurant. Don’t hesitate to stay here! ##### Cody Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Dain Jan 25, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities I like that this place, unlike other hotels actually has a kitchen where they cook authentic breakfast, lunch and dinner. The hotel also has a cooking class on rooftop. This location was very convenient ##### Dain Stayed 4 nights in Jan 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### HIROAKI Sep 1, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Strongly recommended place to stay!

Life is Good is at a great location, spotless clean, great breakfast, and has the best staff that I ever encountered in a Hostel. I highly recommend this place to anyone. ##### Anisio Stayed 6 nights in Nov 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Latoya Feb 17, 2026 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities The entire staff / Team was amazing very helpful friendly made the stay a ease love it will recommend and come back ##### Latoya Stayed 4 nights in Feb 2026 ### 10/10 Excellent #### MARIA Aug 23, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Excellent stay!

It's on a main street so really convinient to transportation, restaurants and main places from Cartagena. The place is really calmed and staff is friendly, although they could have more information on what to do. Overall clean and with good amenities. ##### Eduardo Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### gregory Nov 7, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Absolutely fantastic place. Comfortable room, friendly helpful staff, great location, good food, great towels. Close to everything. Walking distance to everything. Rooftop hangout is lovely. Secure 24 hour access. Highly recommend! ##### gregory ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sandra Feb 7, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Great location on a street with several bars and restaurants. Room was comfortable. Breakfast was simple and tasty. Only negative is related to the hot tubs on the rooftop deck—the water is cold and they close at 7pm. They should be open later. ##### Sandra Stayed 1 night in Feb 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Terrance Nov 27, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities This group is so amazing 👏...

Todo super limpio, ordenado y la cama cómoda. Desayuno rico. Trato super amable por parte de todo el personal. El aire acondicionado super bien. El baño me gustó bastante. El Jacuzzi super a gusto. Está mega cerca del Barrio de Getsemaní (a dos minutos caminando). Sin duda, si vuelvo, sería ahí, me faltó la experiencia de la cocina con la Cheff. De ahí todo excelente 🇲🇽 ##### LESLY RUBÍ Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Nathaniel Oct 28, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Great, friendly staff members! The rooms were tidy and there wasn't anything they didn't have concerning toiletries. The hot tub is cool, and that is needed for the hot, sticky weather. ##### Nathaniel Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Heloisa Oct 21, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Excelente estadia O atendimento da equipe de funcionários é sensacional. A estadia foi incrível, ficar hospedada no Life is Good fez toda a diferença. Vale muito a pena, com certeza voltaria. Quarto limpo e espaçoso com chuveiro com água quente. Café da manhã maravilhoso com opções variadas. A melhor limonada de coco de Cartagena foi no restaurante do hostel. ##### Heloisa Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Aluminios Sajima Apr 28, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Excelente ##### Aluminios Sajima Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mathieu Mar 23, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Excellent séjour ##### Mathieu Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mario Feb 11, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Definitivamente este lugar es la mejor opción. El elemento diferenciador es el trato tan amable, pero las habitaciones, la terraza, los desayunos, la ubicación (cerca de restaurantes muy muy buenos) hacen que sea un hospedaje distinto! Totalmente recomendado! ##### Mario Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Catherine Dec 17, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Tout simplement parfait! Je n’ai que du positif à dire sur cet hostel! Le personnel est incroyable. Ils sont tous attentionnés et font tout pour rendre votre séjour agréable. J’ai participé au cours de cuisine, ne passez pas à côté! Quelle belle expérience! C’était une belle soirée et on a préparé des recettes que je pourrai refaire à la maison pour me rappeler ma visite à Cartagena. Les dortoirs sont propres, bien aménagés, les lits sont très confortables. L’hostel est bien situé et toute la vieille ville et Getsemani sont accessibles à pied à partir de là. Le déjeuner inclus était différent chaque jour et tellement bon! Vraiment j’ai tout aimé. Je le recommande sans hésitation! ##### Catherine Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Priscila Nov 23, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Muito bonita, organizada. ##### Priscila Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2023 ### Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > - [Mirador del laguito nice and comfy apartment](https://www.expedia.ca/Cartagena-Hotels-Mirador-Del-Laguito-Nice-And-Comfy-Apartment.h33212723.Hotel-Information) > - [Ermita Cartagena, a Tribute Portfolio Hotel by Marriott](https://www.expedia.ca/Cartagena-Hotels-Ermita.h42504908.Hotel-Information) > - [Honeymoon Resorts and Hotels in South Lake Tahoe](https://www.expedia.ca/South-Lake-Tahoe-Hotels-Honeymoon-Hotels.0-0-d10150-tHoneymoonHotels.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > - [Hotels with Hot Tubs in Gulf Islands](https://www.expedia.ca/Gulf-Islands-Hotels-Hotels-With-Hot-Tubs.0-0-d6139237-tHotelsWithHotTubs.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > - [Hotels in Tripoli](https://www.expedia.ca/Tripoli-Hotels.d6130603.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > - [Beautiful beachfront two bedroom apartment Bocagrande Palmetto Beach ](https://www.expedia.ca/Cartagena-Hotels-New-2-Bedroom-Luxury-Apartment-At-The-Beach.h21979789.Hotel-Information) > - [w\* | Urban 2BR w/ Cozy Terrace in Bocagrande](https://www.expedia.ca/Cartagena-Hotels-W-Urban-2BR-W-Cozy-Terrace-In-Bocagrande.h111191650.Hotel-Information) > - [Hotels in Cave Creek](https://www.expedia.ca/Cave-Creek-Hotels.d87479.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > - [Hotels near Aloofushi](https://www.expedia.ca/Aloofushi-Hotels.d553248635929332145.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > - [Villas Medellin](https://www.expedia.ca/Medellin-Villas.d2246-aaVillas.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > - [Cozy 2BR w/ Ocean View n AC in Cartagena](https://www.expedia.ca/Cartagena-Hotels-Cozy-2BR-W-Ocean-View-N-AC-In-Cartagena.h104242428.Hotel-Information) > - [Hotel Villa Alta Guest House](https://www.expedia.ca/Cartagena-Hotels-Villa-Alta-Guest-House.h111531152.Hotel-Information) > - [Mintaka Hotel Lounge](https://www.expedia.ca/Cartagena-Hotels-Mintaka-Hotel-Lounge.h36129989.Hotel-Information) > - [Lakowe Lakes & Golf Estate](https://www.expedia.ca/Lekki-Hotels-Lakowe-Lakes-Golf-Estate.h48954980.Hotel-Information) > - [Serenity Island Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Bounty-Island-Hotels-Serenity-Island-Resort.h24105137.Hotel-Information) > - [Hotel stay Golden](https://www.expedia.ca/Cartagena-Hotels-Hotel-Stay-Golden.h109934256.Hotel-Information) > - [Holiday Inn Express Cartagena Manga by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Cartagena-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Cartagena-Manga.h24727552.Hotel-Information) > - [Palmetto Eliptic 1002](https://www.expedia.ca/Cartagena-Hotels-PALMETTO-ELIPTIC-1002.h38330956.Hotel-Information) > - [Hotel Casa El Mangle](https://www.expedia.ca/Cartagena-Hotels-Hotel-Casa-El-Mangle.h18315562.Hotel-Information) > - [Apartamentos Unik Cartagena Edificio Poseidón](https://www.expedia.ca/Cartagena-Hotels-Unik-Cartagena-Edificio-Poseidon.h35086098.Hotel-Information) > - [Grand Palladium Jamaica Resort & Spa All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Montego-Bay-Hotels-Grand-Palladium-Jamaica-Resort-Spa-All-Inclusive.h2057712.Hotel-Information) > - [OZ Hotel Luxury](https://www.expedia.ca/Cartagena-Hotels-Hotel-OZ-Luxury.h46542354.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > - [Flights from vancouver intl airport](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/airports/yvr/flights-from-vancouver-intl-airport) > - [Flights from Tokyo (HND) to Chitose (CTS)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/hnd/cts/tokyo-to-sapporo) ### Cars ### Activities ### Vacation Rentals
