Great hostel with a perfect location. 5 minutes walk to Provenza and 15 minutes to the metro. Bed was comfy and the bathroom clean. Hot water and WiFi were available. The staff was friendly and helpful. We could book several tours with the hostel.

I genuinely don't understand how this hostels gets such high reviews. I booked my stay at this Selina because my first experience staying at a Selina in Guatemala was so good. However this Selina is very rundown. My friend and I were in a 12 room dorm and we're charged close to $20 a night. Our room had no air conditioning, the room looked like it had just been thrown together at the last minute, no lamp available in each bunk, the little shelves arent securely placed in the wall so you can't place anything on them without your things slipping off. The bathroom has no soap or garbage can and the rooms don't seem like there's anyone who regularly cleans them. Since my reservation was non refundable I stuck it our for 4 days and when I needed to book one more night not wanting to which hostels for one night I was charged $26! For the most basic run down accommodations. I really don't understand the pricing. Although the hostel is in a great location, the windows aren’t sealed so it’s super noisy until 4 am at weekends. It’s very much a party hostel! The co working space is nice however and large and the onsite cafe has great food and coffee. Wouldn’t recommend, as it seems like there are a lot nicer hostels in the area.

It's a shame, because our room was nice, but they stole from our room when cleaning, several times. I had 200,000 COP in cash stolen, as well as a green santiago hat, shorts and an apple watch charger. My friend also had cash stolen, as well shorts and a t shirts. God knows what else they took. We advised reception and they believed us and gave us a tiny food voucher. They said they had this issue a few months ago, so got a whole new cleaning staff in. Nothing changed, Complaining gets you nowhere unfortunately. Just avoid it. The stuff was 100% stolen. We lost nothing else over our 3 week trip, until we arrived in this Selina. They also did not have our booking in their system so tried to make us pay again as it was not in their system. My friend was locked out of his emails so I had to contact someone via whatsapp to show the invoice. Again, offered us a free coffee each as a sorry. Avoid.

Awful service! We were placed in a room next to a storage area where furniture was being moved as early as 6 a.m. every day, making it impossible to get any sleep. Santiago, the receptionist, was unhelpful and refused to address the issue. Instead of resolving our concerns, he went as far as threatening guests who stayed at the reception while seeking a solution. Shockingly, Santiago even threatened to have us forcibly removed from the hotel simply for requesting basic service standards. Avoid this property at all costs—absolutely unacceptable!

I was a little apprehensive at first after reading some reviews, however I had the BEST time at Selina Medellin. So much so that i extended my stay and didn't want to leave. The bed was really comfortable, the views were incredible. Great events and a lovely cafe on the ground floor. The staff at the restaurant were the sweetest people. I'll be back for sure!

It was the worse hostel/hotel i have ever been in my life. Everything is terrible. The rooms don’t have air conditioning, so it is impossible to sleep. The bathrooms are dirty and no one cleans it. Besides that, the biulding is old and need repairs

Terrible experience! The shared room don’t have air conditioning, it’s very small and has poor ventilation. Medellin is a hot city is and sometimes I arrived at the room and it was SMELY because I understand the people were sweating a lot at night at the room because it was REALLY HOT. Also, they didn’t clean the bathrooms on the 3 days I’ve stayed there. It’s kinda disgusting because I was sharing a room and bathroom with 7 unknown people
