Would not recommend this property. Booked this hotel for 1 night stay because it was very late and I wanted somewhere to stay so I can figure out the remainder of my trip. I arrived and it wasn’t until I spoke with the man (who didn’t even want to come to the door and assist me) only to find out that the booking was for tomorrow. I asked if there was anyway it can be applied for tonight’s stay instead & if they could accommodate me, and he said no. That evening I contacted Expedia for a refund and they said they would reach out to the hotel to get it situated. I also wrote the hotel on Expedia to which they told me no. Please be aware that this hotel is also in an area that looks VERY SKETCHY at night. I didn’t even want to stay outside to figure out another available hotel, I ended up going back to the airport because of how scary the outside of the hotel looked. There were people just watching me standing outside looking which made me feel like a target. Would not recommend this hotel at all.
I thoroughly enjoyed my stay here. I arrived about an hour before check-in, and went across the street to grab a bite to eat. Charming facility, and very friendly and helpful service. Although the rooms were on the smaller side, they were nonetheless well-maintained. A highlight of the day was the breakfast served Near the rooftop pool. Always delicious and always served with a smile.
I would come back again.
Beautiful little boutique hotel! Very quiet and private despite the busy neighborhood just outside. It was the perfect location for being within walking distance of the walled city and nightlife.
El hotel y los cuartos están limpios y cumplen las expectativas ofrecidas. Los tiempos de check in y out fueron excesivos, pueden mejorar la experiencia al cliente en estos dos puntos.
I would stay again in this property in they changed their check-in process and speed. They couldn't find a stamp on my passport and kept me waiting for hours. There was no clarity on which documents they needed, and although I spoke to the manager who said that it was solved, the girl from the front desk kept asking me for more and. ore documents via whatsapp.
I've stayed at hundreds of hotels in Colombia and Cartagena and this had never happened to me before.
They could have air conditioning in the lobby or at least better ventilation. It was my first time staying at the hotel and chose it due to the closeness to the port. Upon arrival I felt that I had made a mistake because the "lobby" is dark and hot, but the room was very clean, spacious and with good AC.
In the morning the water pump of the hotel was not working and I couldn't take a shower, but the hotel acted promptly and gave me a room to shower in another of their hotels which was just one block away.
This is great location and the rooftop pools are a huge bonus. Found the check in service and access a bit slow and dated, respectively. Overall great but room for improvement based on another similar hotel experiance in the area.

Room was very small and photos online are definitely deceiving but the bathroom is clean and the area is great for tourists and close to the walled city. Good location.
El hotel era increíble, muy cómodo y el personal era muy amable y servicial. La ubicación era increíble y estaba perfectamente situada para explorar los bares y restaurantes cercanos. El único pequeño inconveniente fue que en el área del jacuzzi no había nadie trabajando detrás de la barra a pesar de que se suponía que estaría abierta hasta las 8 pm. Esto no fue importante para nosotros, pero probablemente valga la pena mencionarlo. la comida estuvo deliciosa y en general todo fue increíble.
There was no running water in our room meaning no shower, brushing teeth or flushing the toilet. Then they refused to give us a refund. Finally the offered us to stay at their sister hotel after we had already made other arrangements. Absolutely terrible.
Would rather not leave a bad review, but our bathroom was continually covered in toilet water from a leaking toilet, and we had to ask to replace a comforter with an odd stain on it. The hotel refused to compensate us for any of this. The toilet really made for an unpleasant stay. It looks like the hotel has only tried to add more caulk to the base of the toilet, but that's not enough to stop the leak.
