Hostel Tralala Salento

So beautiful hostel,peaceful and fully clean!! My best hostel experience in Colombia. The two women that work there are amazing,very kind and pure! Much love from Greece

Can't think of a better hostel to stay in Salento. Everything was perfect! Room and bathrooms were clean, good location and has a kitchen with basic stuff to cook. Also, they offer a variety of tours. The stuff was super friendly and always willing to answer questions/help with anything. Probably the best stuff I've met in a long time while travelling and staying at hostels. Thank you so much 🫶

Tralala is a true gem—genuinely the best hostel i’ve ever been to. It’s so beautiful, clean and lovingly decorated with handmade furniture and cute little objects. The staff is super helpful and always ready to answer any questions you may have. They let us check-in early which was very appreciated and we were able to have our clothes washed and dried and ready to pick up in less than 3 hours which was super helpful. There were even fresh towels in our rooms which I was super grateful for, all for a very reasonable price. There are 2 kitchens fully equipped with everything you need, including coffee. We extended our stay because we loved it so much! I’ll definitely come back one day :)

We arrived in Salento after booking a hostel in advance, but when we got there, we found that the room was very uncomfortable, so we wanted to switch. We called hostel Tralala to confirm availability, and as soon as we were told there was space, we canceled our previous reservation and went there with all our things. A few minutes after arriving, the receptionist told us she had made a mistake and there was actually no availability. We started looking for another place to stay, but after about 10 minutes she asked us to leave because it was the hostel’s quiet hours — even though we were sitting quietly and just looking for a new place on our phones. We explained that we had nowhere to sleep at the moment and just needed some time to sit and find somewhere, but she said it wasn’t her problem and that we should have been more responsible — even though the reason we canceled our previous booking was because she had told us there was space. In the end, we found ourselves out on the street at night looking for a place to sleep — when all we needed was just a few minutes to sit in the lobby. That was the bare minimum she could have done after her mistake. The receptionist’s name was apparently Alla, although it’s possible she gave us a fake name because we asked her after she had kicked us out into the street.

I really enjoyed my stayed at Tralala ! The location of the hostel is close to the main square (making it easy to access transport for tours). The dorms are very clean and nice ! The larger dorm is next to the road so there is some traffic noise when sleeping (unavoidable).

Lovely little hostel in Salento, perfect location and friendly staff who will do their best to help. The hot water broke during our stay, however was soon fixed. The only downside was the noise from the road. This hostel overlooks a road up to the main square and with all the motorbikes revving up the hill, it can be very loud all hours of the day and night. There is a small snug downstairs but this had a bit of a problem with mosquitos so we couldn’t stay there for very long.

The hostel is in a fabulous location! We were able to walk everywhere in town since it is only one block from the plaza, yet it was very peaceful. The common area courtyard is extraordinary, and the staff was responsive by WhatsApp and arranged an airport ride for us. However, our bathroom had an annoying leak in the shower, which resulted in water all over the floor of the bathroom, no matter how careful we were to close the shower door before turning on the water. When I informed them about it, they didn't even come to look at it or attempt to fix it, offer us a discount, or offer to move us to another room. That was disappointing.

Excellent hostel in Salento! We arrived here super late on our first night and Erica was so helpful and kind. This hostel has comfy beds, kitchen facilities and extremely helpful staff (which is always appreciated when travelling). This is also a perfect place to wash your clothes, they drop them back to your room within a few hours. Only thing to note is that the showers aren’t the best, not very powerful, it’s probably worth changing the shower heads to increase the water pressure.
