I can’t recommend this place enough. This hostel really felt like a home away from home during our time in Salento. My boyfriend was hiking Tolima for four days while I stayed in Salento due to a knee injury and I couldn’t have picked a better place to stay! The hostel itself is beautiful and quiet with a lovely garden. The location is excellent - very close to the main town square, yet tucked away from some of the most busy and noisy touristy streets. The rooms are spacious, the beds gave us a good nights sleep, everything is clean and the showers are warm! The breakfast was also really nice, just a short walk down the road to a place where you get fresh juice, eggs, fruit and coffee. What really made our stay so lovely was Paola who runs the place with an amazing energy and warmth. She made us feel so welcome and helped out with everything we needed, from tours and rubber boots for the hikes to tips for places to eat nearby. The rest of the staff were also brilliant, including Isabel who took me on an amazing coffee tour of her family’s coffee plantation! Would easily come back and stay even longer!
