    Stunning and lively hostel with really confortable rooms
    • Leisure trip
    • Solo traveler
    • Bed in 8-Bed Mixed Dormitory Room
    • Stayed 1 night

    I would have liked more bathrooms for the amount of people that stayed there, and the breakfast is a little expensive for Colombian standards.

    An excellent hostel that provides new, spacious, comfortable rooms in a lovely building. A great point is the team that offers a variety of activities throughout your stay such as dance classes, coffee tastings, etc... There is a really nice mood with how the accommodation is set up as well as an amazing view. Great food for breakfast and dinner as well, and the staff is super friendly in order to provide tips for visiting Salento. 100% would recommend, I would stay there again!

    Restaurant did not have all the items on the menu, the food was expensive in comparison to the town, completely average.

    Beautiful hostel located in a great part of town. Jeferson and Juana were extremely friendly and helpful. Beds are comfy and private

    A really great hostel. Perfect loaction, less than 10 minute walk from the main square, beautiful views, pñenty of chill space, an on site bar that also does food. the staff were super friendly and helpful, especially Juliana and Maya. There are lots of free activities!! did spanish classes and salsa lessons with Maya they were really good fun and a great way to meet people. It's a very social hostel, lot of people from other hostels in town end up coming here to Socialise.

    When I arrived, they refused to check me in because I didnt have my passport (only a copy). It should have been written somewhere, because it caused me a lot of stress ! The chef let me stay, but it was an exception...thanks to that. And also, I asked for one night more and they couldnt offer me that; I had to reserve on booking... which is a bit weird when you are travelling and sometimes, you decide "on the way" to stay or not.

    View and commodities like fire pit, bar, etc

    The lockers beneath our beds were made out of metal and thus a little squeaky. One afternoon the water supply had to be cut down due to muddy water entering the piping after a heavy rain. Our hostel was not the only one affected by this problem, so no fault one their side!, The hammocks weren't apt for swinging, unfortunately :(

    We really enjoyed the terrace after a long day of hiking where we were able to have a drink, relax and enjoy the stunning view. The dorm rooms were clean and had enough space to store all of your stuff safely.

    Views, breakfast, people, and the overall environment of the hostel was spectacular! Valentina, Sebastian, and the rest of the crew were such a treat to be around. They were helpful, and a lot of fun to just chat with about general things, Salento, Colombia and much more. I only wish we had more time!

    The kitchen was a mess sometimes. It’s hard to get the shower to a fixed temperature (but one could say it’s a feature, not a bug)

    Very active but no party hostel. A lot of activities and great staff. Rooms where quite!

    The temperature of the shower is a little difficult to regulate, it goes from boiling hot to cold but other than that it was all perfect!

    Great atmosphere, they have a lot of activities going on every day and the pub in the evenings is really fun. The hostel is very clean and facilities are good! Definetely recommend staying here!

    there are not enough bathrooms for the size of the hostel, the wifi is non existent, my room personally the water gauge was actually dangerous.. it went from ice cold to scolding hot in seconds and the water didn’t go down so you were standing in a pool of gross water.

    the view is incredible, and the staff that works there are absolutely lovely.

    - The music was sometimes too loud in the middle of the day and we couldn't always chat and chill in the lounge area outdoors because of that - The options breakfast could be more diverse

    + Very beautiful and wide view both in the common outdoor areas and in the room + Every day there were different and interesting activities + Very friendly staff, always available and smiling, in particular Juana who was at reception and helped us with everything and Juliana who gave us a workshop on how to make coffee + Clean rooms without mosquitoes and bugs

    Great location and outdoor space to relax and fun activities in the evening (Maya's dance classes were definitely a highlight). The activities stop around 10pm so you can still get some rest early even if your room is located close to the social area.
