Property and room was great, but one thing you need to know that could affect your choice and that is the hotel has a very strict policy of no guests unless they register them first.

Great hotel to stay while on vacation in Cartagena.
It’s close to the beach and shopping areas. The property is well maintained, they also have a restaurant if you don’t wish to eat out, the only thing food is very salty. The staff is friendly.

The AC is the room was not working properly, the bathroom main door did not close all the way, the mini fridge was not working so drinks were hot and chocolates melted. The beach area of the hotel is full of salesman that are extremely rude, persuasive and some even present a sefety and security issue. The price for the breakfast per person is extremely expensive based on the menu and service provided.

I had no wash cloth to take a shower. Call front desk several times. Promised to deliver but never did. I end up bathing with a large hand towel which was so uncomfortable, otherwise the property was very nice didn’t like the neighborhood that was around it. When the roads are. Flooded it’s difficult for the taxi to get in the entrance
