    Everything is okay except for a few things. Two of the hotels didn't have windows facing the street, and the time in Medellin is too short; it should be one extra day. It would be better to not spend the night in Salento. There's really nothing to do there, and the city can be seen in a couple of hours. Instead, take the early evening flight to Medellin to avoid spending a full day on a bus.
