First off, the location on Hotels.com is wrong, as of this writing. As others said, not only is it up a steep driveway, it is about a 5-10 walk up a very dark dirt road from the edge of town. Secondly, it is not a hostel, it is a Finca... meaning a family house. As a result there are young kids crying early in the morning. Aside from that it is a lovely Finca, if that is what you are looking for and don't mind/are able to make a small climb.

Pros: The finca has beautiful views, and although staff dont speak English (i dont speak Spanish) they were super helpful. The mirador is close by. Cons: steep uphil walk from town and it gets very dark as soon as sun sets. Very loud, could hear the music from the town up until 2am.

GREAT stay! A 5-minute walk out of Salento. VERY nice environment: nature, colorful, amazing views, quiet, nice-strong hot water! Caretakers Fidel and his wife were incredibly helpful and friendly, a MUST stay, a MUST experience!
