Great staff, comfortable, bed the room was spacious and clean. Staff made me feel very welcomed. Any issue I had was addressed by staff in a timely manner.

The window of my room lacked weather proofing. And due to rain from a tropical storm the window did leak.

Good location. Quite spacious rooms. Simple, stylish decor in the rooms.

Miserly management. I've stayed in many hotels, it's the first time I ever asked for early check in and they told me there would be a charge for it! If the room is empty and cleaned, why lose goodwill by trying to scrape a few extra dollars? Single glazing on a noisy street.

The room was okay for the price, the bed was very comfortable and everything seemed clean enough.

The location is not safe, especially at Friday evening, with a lot of people drinking right where the entrance to the hotel is. Also, accessing the hotel is confusing, with the entrance being inside a gallery, and in order to call for the elevator you need to press a button and try to communicate with the lobby in order for them to send it to the lower level. Lastly, there’s always a concentration of vendors at the entrance, trying to sell you things in a very forced way, which is very uncomfortable, but I believe this is a problem of Cartagena not just the hotel.

Good air conditioning

Not a safe location. No receptionist answered when I rang the intercom 4 times at 7:30pm trying to use the elevator. The door to my room had clearly been forced open a number of times with lots of visible damage to the door frame and door. I did not feel safe staying there. I will never return.
