The wifi signal in my room was non existent during my entire 5 night stay. The AC was good, bed was fine and the room was clean. The hotel is aging and it shows. The breakfast was basic but savory. The hotel is a good value.

Very good location with access to beach two blocks away. One block from main road with tons of restaurants and shopping malls. Hotel was very good value for the price. Jesus at front desk provided very good customer service. Will definitely be returning next time staying in Cartagena.

The location and the room size in general worked great for me. Glad to have air conditioning and a safebox in the room. The elevator is under construction, but it was not a problem for me. The pool fit perfectly for its purpose and breakfast is quite good and well served.

an amazing hotel… unless you get room 101

We had our first night in what seemed to be the worst room of the hotel (room 101) and thankfully were able to change into a much better room the next day thanks to the very helpful staff. That first room shouldn’t exist especially for this price and it is a shame that they dare put customers in it, especially when the rest of the hotel is so nice. The pool is perfect, the breakfast is delicious, staff is very kind and helpful, hotel is in a very convenient area, the only minus would be how the noise gets inside the rooms easily from early morning. I think I would recommend this hotel if i didn’t have the experience of being put in room 101 the first day, for without that, it was great.

It was good for the price. Pros: Nice pool but a tad small, AC was phenomenal, staff was friendly and helpful for the most part, restaurant on site, the showers had the power of Atlantis itself supplying the water pressure, convenient location (close to church, shops, groceries, restaurants, the beach, etc.) Cons: Wifi only worked in the halls and main areas (they did say they’d fix it or have us change rooms which we eventually switched and the wifi was still shoddy. We had room 311 then swapped to room 202), only soundproof from other rooms but the hotel is near some rowdy businesses (rm 311)so I heard a lot of hee hee and ha ha at night along with some great music but it was 2am and I wanted to sleep since I was doing early morning tours. Consider carefully if you’re a light sleeper. Also, the pool closes at 8pm but I heard some drunk people hanging out there in the pool area. We were right above it (rm 202) so I heard the entire slurred conversation start to finish.
