Budget Accomodation in Bogota

I have searched Hostelworld but have only come up with 3 Hostels .. 2 of which aren't all that cheap. Any others or budget hotels?

Cheap Accommodation Contray to what you may think, short term rentals in Colombia are NOT cheap unless you live in a Hostel. I can't imagine a Hostel being expensive. Just exactly what do you expect to pay? You can always try this place www.welovebogota.com Try a search here or go through some of the postings in this category and you will understand why rentals are not that cheap to foreigners who want to rent short term.

hotel v. hostel The Platypus Hostel is the default hostel in Bogota, and it's in La Candelaria (www.platypusbogota.com). There are a variety of hotels in the area as well if you want to go real cheap. Hotel Aragon, El Dorado, International, Gun Club... take your pick.

If you want a nice hotel, the Hotel El Virrey on calle 18 near Septima is the best deal in the city - 45,000 pesos per night, and it's quality.
