We could not of had a nicer stay in Salento here. Valentina and the family were beyond helpful and made our stay better. On arrival Valentina gave us a list of activities that can be done in the area, advice on bus times and any other general help we needed. Place was spotless, located at the square in Salento and great value for money.

Located in Salento, 44 km from Ukumari Zoo, Casa Mochila provides accommodation with a garden, free private parking, a terrace and a bar.

Lovely, quiet spot with comfortable rooms and a cute shared area for dining/relaxing. We ended up being the only two people there (in fairness, it was mid-week in the off-season), but Gloria was SUPER responsive over WhatsApp and really helpful with arranging a coffee tour and getting us around. She even lent us some umbrellas when we got caught in a huge downpour! Loved the hospitality.

    The best hostel of my entire trip in Colombia. Great and helpful staff, great breakfast, very nice private room and most importantly the possibility to book trips and adventures in the area, but also the free activities such as food tours and pub crawls organised by the hotel itself, which are a great occasion to meet people. You can also join a whatsapp group to get all the practicals on these activities in real time, even if you spend the day on adventures outside the hostel. The perfect hostel for solo travelers.

    Great location, very attentive hosts who helped with arranging trips, buses and recommendations for food. Loved the fact we were offered free coffee and even a beer! Felt like staying at a family home rather than a hostel.

    This hostel has everything needed for the best price, great location near bus terminal with amazing view in a quiet neighborhood. Great staff, clean dorm beds and delicious breakfast! What more do you need! Other hostel with foreign investment don't feel as authentic as this place but are rather meant for tourists looking to party, not this place!

    This is best hostel I’ve stayed in for the money so far. The hosts were exceptional. Answered any questions we had, gave us nice bracelets on arrival, and replaced my charging cable that I lost (which was my fault not there’s). The beds have nice curtains and are comfortable. The location is great, just off of the square. And everyone was super friendly. Great backpackers hostel.

    It'e been a good few years since I stayed in a hostel but I loved Viajero in Salento, I had one of the private views which had incredible views over the valley. I booked it mainly to meet new people and Dani Ella did an amazing job with different events in the hostel and the guest Whatsapp group. Overall a really well run hostel in a great location
