I will definitely be returning to this hotel in Cartagena, Columbia. From the moment you walked into the hotel the staff were so eager to help. The check-in process was very fast. The hotel is very clean and smells wonderful. I loved my room the quality of the bedding and the mattress is , superb. The rooms are very spacious with high ceilings and very quiet. I loved the shower and the bathroom toiletries that was provided and also the towels were huge, strong, and out of this world. The breakfast was delicious everyday. They make very good coffee. I would love to mention three staff members that went above and beyond for my birthday. Their names are Fabian, Alfonso, papano. Thank you so much for your kindness. I will be returning shortly.

This property is very conveniently located walking distance to the clock tower/bustling center of Cartagena de indias. We were able to walk to our walking tour (and Getsemani), the castle, chivas, shopping, our cooking class, and the port/meeting spot to go to the mud volcano. The room was clean and nice and the rooftop pool area and restaurant were both nice as well. As far as a valuable and nice stay within Cartagena de Indias borders, we recommend this one.
