Good value if you are not bothered by sketchy neighborhoods
Pros:

The people working there are nice. The room was clean and the bed was comfy. There is a bathroom in the room with good hot water. They held a bag for me while I went on a side trip until I returned. The place is bigger and nicer than it appears from the outside. The area is not nice but just a few blocks away the areas are much better and there is a transmilenio stop very close.

Cons:

The location just around the hotel is pretty sketchy with prostitutes. This could change in the future I suppose. I did not feel unsafe but it was not appealing. My TV had bad cable reception with snow in the picture. When I reported it the man working there just set it for local channels and never tried to fix it to receive the cable channels. I realized all it took was to wedge the cable in tighter and I was able to watch the cable channels more clearly. It just needs a new connector to fix it. It would be nice to have more coffee or tea available at least during breakfast.

Good value for the money and close to some good areas but the immediate surroundings are rough
Pros:

The people are very nice and the breakfast was nice. It is just a few blocks from a Transmilenio stop. There are some good shops pretty close. The bed is comfortable and there is a shower in the room.

Cons:

The toughest part is that the location is pretty sketchy. A second cup of coffee at breakfast would have been great. The TV had a loose connector that could be easily fixed but was not, so the picture was not clear.

Superb
Pros:

The staff are amazing and friendly. I forgot it included breakfast and they brought it to my room, so sweet. They helped with my bags. Finding places to eat, and how to get to places. I was shocked that they had warm, hot water for the shower. Breakfast was simple but good. The location wasn't too far from public transportation but I used Uber more. They have a parking lot which was good for my friend to visit and park his bike. Overall I will stay again. I stayed all 4 nights and will return.

Cons:

The beds are a little harder than I'm used too. I felt OK getting food in the lite areas for me personally the hotel is great but warning the area SEEMS (key word) dangerous but it didn't bother me at all.
