Hostel is beautifull and relaxing, super clean and staff is amazing. Highly recommend to people who want to sleep in peace but be close to all adventures and party

Yolo Hostel was a fantastic place to stay. It truly felt like a second home. The accommodation was clean and simple, and the evenings were wonderfully quiet and peaceful—perfect for unwinding after a day in the city. The hostel is well-equipped with everything you might need, and the owner was incredibly kind and helpful. A special highlight was the breakfast and lunch spot right next to the hostel. We enjoyed the most delicious breakfasts there—highly recommended! Thank you for the wonderful experience!

I can't think of anything

YOLO is a very chilled hostel, far enough from the hecticness of the tourist area but close enough to be there in a 3 minute walk. I liked the hammocks, amazing breakfast and coffee at Betty's and the staff were the best. Also, I did a river tour and the transformation city tour with Federico, which I highly recommend!

Federico was incredibly helpful. I had a few issues with topping up my SIM card and checking in for my flight the following day and he helped me solve everything. Super friendly, outgoing and there to help you with anything you may need. Thank you Federico!

Federico, the owner, is a very interesting person with an inspiring life story. He leads tours, try to take one if you can. But the facilities are great for the price and I had no issues.

Great location, friendly staff, great balance of socialization and rest

The hostel is about a 20-minute walk from the metro. Also, there's no air conditioning in the dorms, just two fans that were on all night, blowing directly in my face even when it wasn't needed.

The common area is fantastic—perfect for chilling out and meeting new people. The beds were comfortable and clean, and the staff were super friendly and ready to give you advices. Special shout-out to Aleja, who was incredibly sweet and always ready to help with anything you needed.

Nothing. But if you like to party its maybe not the place to go.:)

We really loved staying here and even extended our stay. The staff is super friendly, they have a very good restaurant just outside and nice chilled courtyard which we really liked. Everything was cleaned several times a day. Top hostel!

Very good, quiet, clean, modern and chill. Everything went well, the breakfast offered was too good, the hotel is close to all the places in town and the area is very safe even at night. I really liked the relaxation areas offered by the hotel and the greenery

Too hot in the room, uncomfortable bed ( second floor, no socket near the bed

Location, atmosphere

Stayed in July 2024

Everything is amazing. Starting from the people (owner, receptionist, cleaning lady), always welcome you with a big smile which makes you feel home. Garden is just an unique place. Very comfy. What's best? The coffee!!! Proper specialty coffee it's being served there.

Really nice place to stay, the communal area is full of nature and sun, the breakfast at bettys in lovely and the staff out excellent. Shout out to Andrés.

Bedrooms could be better equipped. They are a bit frugal.. but the overall balance quality-price is still quite honest when I take a look to the price I have paid.

The hostel overall is really nice, shared space is comfy (I spent a lot of time in these hamacs…) Staff is wonderful, always available to help you or answer your questions. Cool tours / activities proposed by the hostel (I did the Medellin transformation tour, which was incredible) There is no word to describe the fruit bowls served by Betty’s bowl restaurant. Definitely the best I have had so far 😍

Stayed in July 2024

When the restaurant is full, guests from there will take up the communal space without any notice. It’s at the far end of el poblado so you walk 30 mins from the metro or Uber

Nice chill hostel with a good kitchen comfortable beds in the private and comfortable hammocks.

Liked the relaxed atmosphere because of the plenty of space to sit, work or lie in hammocks, much green plants around. There is a yard inside and a terrace for dining in front of the hostel so you may choose your favourite place. Sleeping is comfortable and not noisy around. The hostel organises different tours and I chose the one telling about the difficult and violent past times of the Medellin and how the new regions are evolving nowadays and becoming artistic centres. Got good insights and understanding of the place so I recommend the tour! +loved a bawl of rresh fruits and musli for breakfast which was included!

The weather, but that has nothing to do with YOLO Hostel! :)

I checked in after midnight and this was no trouble for the receptionist, such a nice first impression and very welcoming. The hostel has a real 'homely vibe' with a fantastic chill out area, hammock area and bathrooms. There are excellent kitchen facilities and the large dining area was nice to hang out and meet fellow travellers. The outdoor space is very relaxing, brimming with plants and flowers! I loved it so much I stayed for one week! Excellent location too, close enough to the local bars etc but nice and quiet at night. Also Betty's bowls next door is also amazing and the staff there are super cool too!

The price, and location in Poblado next to an amazing breakfast/brunch place is great. The owner/manager sorted me a room when I had to leave my previous hostel because of the noise. This one is much quieter than other ones in Poblado. Also hammocks to relax in. Staff are super friendly as well.

A bit far, the walk home uphill everyday was a bit taxing. And a little bit noisy

Common area really nice, staff really helpful, plenty of bathrooms, and a nice cafe right next door great for starting the day.

Stayed in December 2023

The hostel is located in a safe neighbourhood, where there is lots to do in the evening. You get breakfast from Betty Bowls, which I really liked! A good start of the day. The staff is friendly and very helpful. I also have never seen such a clean hostel. They clean up everyday. Th location is a bit at the end of el poblado, which is nice because its a bit more quiet up there. Its only a bit further walk from the metro station, but totally worth it!

Nice large property with lots of space to relax in the courtyard. Close to lots of bars and restaurants serving great food. Very good bathrooms for a hostel.
