Love the vibe!
Pros:

The receptionist, Jessenia and the housekeeping staff were amazing!
Also the location, the decoration and the patios are great.

Cons:

During our staying we experience lots issues with the water pressure, which is really important in a very hot city. Other than that we enjoyed our stay.

Pros:

La relación calidad -precio es muy buena, teniendo en cuenta que se trata de Cartagena y la zona en la que está ubicado. El servicio fue amable, la habitación estaba limpia y la terraza con un par de hamacas bastante agradable.

Cons:

El TV no funcionó, pero tampoco me esforcé por pedir que lo revisaran y ajustaran/arreglaran.

Accogliente, ottima posizione, economico
Pros:

Accogliente, posizione strategica, vicino a locali e a 10 minuti dal porto

Cons:

Le camere al piano terreno, come la mia, hanno un patio con poltrone che è una zona comune dove la gente parla a voce alta la notte. Per fortuna mi ero portato i tappi per le orecchie, altrimenti sarebbe stato complicato addormentarmi
