Super gelegen
Pros:

Zeer gastvrij en de accommodatie was super centraal gelegen.

Cons:

Een onhandige badkamer met een gekke indeling. Gasten kunnen bij het zwembad zitten, praten en zingen terwijl wij in kamer 1 zaten. Niet echt handig. Er werd wel iets van gezegd!

Hermosa casa colonial cerca del centro histórico
Pros:

El hotel queda en una hermosa casa colonial con una piscina bastante pequeñita, más bien decorativa que funcional. La ubicación es excelente para recorrer el barrio Getsemaní y el centro histórico a pie, aunque la calle frente al hotel tiene mucho tráfico y mucha bulla. El desayuno es rico, aunque un poco repetitivo.

Cons:

El tráfico frente al hotel es muy pesado y en la noche pasan por allí las chivas rumberas. Se oye todo el bullicio y la gritería toda la noche si a uno le toca una habitación que da a la calle. No obstante, las habitaciones interiores son tranquilas y no llega el ruido.

Pros:

Le studio était sur 2 étages, c'était donc très spacieux. Il y avait aussi un petit balcon qui donnait sur la rue. On avait également accès à une salle à manger.
Le personnel était très sympathique. Le petit-déjeuner était très simple mais très bon.
Il y avait aussi une petite piscine. J'ai aimé le style colonial de l'établissement.

Pros:

Dentro do centrinho de Getsemaní, guardaram nossas malas pois chegamos antes do checkin. No dia que fomos embora, saímos muito cedo e deixaram uma marmitinha de café da manhã para levarmos conosco. 🫶🏼 ambiente fresquinho e limpo.

A very nice stay, with amazing staff and a clean room. Lovely little boutique hotel, just has a few things they could up
Pros:

The property is well located, very pretty, exactly as described. The AC worked wonderfully and it was a lovely little oasis. Breakfast was simple and good, freshly made and delicious. The pool was perfectly cool in the Cartagena heat, and I loved the mermaid water feature. All in, the rustic charm of the hotel was exactly what I wanted.

Cons:

The beds are quite firm, too firm in my opinion, and there is only one pillow on the bed, so you can’t mix and match to your preferred sleep style. The bed is also a double, not a queen, so a bit small for tall guests like my husband. The towels were a bit threadbare, and could do with replacing. Mine had frayed edges. There also isn’t any sound insulation between the room and the walkway, so if you were trying to sleep in it would be difficult, but it didn’t personally bother me. Our safe also didn’t work, and wasn’t connected or secured to the cabinet, and the room keys came with a very large wooden piece attached to them, which isn’t ideal to carry with you while exploring the city.

Pros:

Das Personal war super freundlich und hilfsbereit. Gute Lage. Es war sehr ruhig im Innenhof und in den Zimmern. Das Frühstück war super. Es gibt auch eine Küche in der man sich gut selbst versorgen kann. Zimmer sind mit Save, Kühlschrank, Föhn & Bügeleisen ausgestattet. Auch der Laundryservice vom Hotel organisiert, hat super funktioniert. Ein kleines einfaches gemütliches Hotel. Wir waren sehr zufrieden.

Cons:

Es könnten ein paar mehr Möglichkeiten geben, um die Sachen auf- oder anzuhängen :)

Pros:

Sono rimasta piacevolmente colpita dalla struttura che per me è stata quella con qualità prezzo migliore di tutta la vacanza! Stanze semplici ma con ventilatore e anche aria condizionata, colazione buonissima con possibilità di scegliere tra uova o pancakes buonissimi fatti sul momento dal personale! Davvero consigliato
