If you want an economical alternative, this might be for you. Unless it's rush hour, it's a cheap $3 15-minute Uber ride to the Walled City. The rooms are clean and the staff really try to please. Our view was an air shaft and another room's window. The breakfast is limited but freshly made and includes fruit, sugary juice blends, egg dishes and coffee. Dining options in the immediate area are limited but include a couple of seafood restaurants and lots of take-out empanadas and deep-fried root vegetables. The neighborhood "El Bosque" is functional and not charming. Lots of "talleres" for car repairs. Construction in the hotel started at 8 a.m. but that only occurred a couple of times.
The hotel was nice and clean. Staff were extremely helpful and very kind and welcoming! The restaurant breakfast was delicious. The location was very disappointing. Not a safe area, even the taxi driver made a comment about it when he dropped us off.
The staff at this hotel was great but I had a few issues with the breakfast and there was a problem with the electricity going out. Not a large selection like in other hotels for breakfast. The staff was very helpful and fun. They are the reason for the high rating.
We have a great time in this hotel, is very clean, personal very kind and nice, the restaurant was clean and good food.

The pool is in actuality a very small size Jacuzzi. The hotel is in a very poor section of the city and not safe to walk the streets at night. If a guest comes to your room and spends more than 20 minutes you are assessed for a full day amount at check-out time, that is an unconscionable rule of theirs if you ask me.
The bed is spectacular the staff is wonderful and there’s nobody really in the way the elevators free to come up and down Just the only thing is you need a car or if you don’t mind paying for taxis to get to the old city
Staff was super helpful. Would recommend having some basic Spanish understanding here and you will be muy bueno. Staff is great, dinner and dinner price are really good considering the quality. Fun place to be if you want be out of downtown but not to deep it. Took a non-speaking Spanish friend and she had a great time be able to joke and enjoy all amenities with needing constantly translation. Good deal!
The bed was one of the best I have ever been in on vacation (202) it was that many people when I went the breakfast was a little weak I guess the things that keeps it so cheap is every time you leave your room the Ac goes off because you have to take your room key with you
The main drawback is it’s out of the way from the Centro, Getsemani and Bocagrande neighbourhoods that you likely want to visit. But it’s a relatively easy cab ride just make sure to tell the cab driver it’s in the Bosque neighbourhood when you go back. It was pretty quiet and nice and clean. The only real complaint is that the shower only had lukewarm water.
This hotel is great, especially for the price! If you are not familiar with Cartagena to know where the hotel is located and you want to be close to everything tourist related, this hotel is not for you. If you have a car and do not mind being a car ride away, it is perfect! The location for me was great but I did have a car so it was easy for me for me to go everywhere. The parking is excellent and very safe. I had breakfast (it was included) and different plates for lunch everyday; everything was delicious! I did not have one complain. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The rooftop jacuzzi area is perfect. It is small but cozy and it is perfect to watch the sunset with a drink in your hand. I went to their gym and enjoyed it as well. Everything is exactly as it is seen in the pictures. I would definitely go back!
