We enjoyed our stay at Selina overall. However, there was ongoing construction happening during our stay and at times it was noisy.

We needed to book a reservation last minute and they had availability for us. Staff was very kind and understanding, the property was nice, didn’t meet as many people with it being a hostel, but enjoyed being there.

We very much enjoyed this hotel. Best quality/price in Cartagena. Very well located in Getsemani but 5 min wal to Centro Historico. Great patio. Friendly staff. Very nice decor and design. We had a suite on the second floor. I highly recommand.

I liked they have a rooftop and you can have breakfast or lunch there, I didn’t liked the room with balcony you can hear everything from the street

Super social hostel in the heart of Getsemani. “Micro rooms” are great value for money and surprisingly spacious. Wifi is strong too. Minor criticisms include the painful check-in process - I’ve opened bank accounts quicker - and the prices for drinks are way too high for a hostel. Fortunately all the cool street bars are right on your doorstep so this wasn’t an issue for us. Would recommend!

We had booked a rather expensive private standard room. The room we recieved was nothing like the pictures on the website. Small space without a window that smelled like mold. We asked to change room which took the staff over an hour and they were not very friendly. The hostel is noisy at night time and full of drunk teenagers

The room we stayed had no windows and it smelled really bad. At the hotel they took a long time to change rooms and even the new room was not working. The AC was leaking and it also had a very bad smell. For the price I would expect something better.

What a bad experience 1. Dirty shower. Hairs all over the shower 2. No space between toilet and wall. Had to sit down with open legs 3. Uncomfortable pillows 4. Guard at night was super rude and disrespectful 5. Extremely loud at night. You could hear all the hallway and neighbors. Conclusion: never going back to a hole like this

Beste Lage in Cartagena, zentral aber nicht zu dicht am Nachtleben. Wir hatten das Luxus Zimmer mit Fenstern, tolles Riesen Bett, Schreibtisch, geräumig. Sauber und alles funktioniert. Aufzug. Das Hotel hat ein gutes Frühstücksangebot. Alle Angestellten sehr nett. Wir hatten einen späten Flug aus Cartagena und konnten die Gemeinschaftsräume den ganzen Tag nutzen. Schöne dachtterasse. Einziger Nachteil: auf der Terrasse wird oft ab der Mittagszeit und insbesondere am Wochenende so laute Musik gespielt, dass man sich kaum unterhalten, lesen oder gar arbeiten kann. Schade!
