Ideal para uma estadia curta.
Pros:

Excelente localização, bem próximo de bares, restaurantes, mercadinho e pontos de interesse. Mas cuidado, esta proximidade traz o ruído das ruas, que são sempre muito movimentadas e os motoristas locais buzinam muito Café da manhã é servido num restaurante a 3min de distância muito bom, com 8 opções distintas no menu. Funcionários amigáveis, quarto amplo, banheiros bastante simples, sem água quente. Ar condicionado e ventilador no quarto.

Cons:

Embora seja um prédio antigo (e talvez não possa sofrer modificações drásticas), poderia ter um isolamento acústico melhor.

Cons:

Tuve que pedir cambio de habitación por el ruido, y en ningún caso pude tener noches tranquilas por la cantidad de ruido tanto externo como interno en el hotel. En relación al precio, me pareció un muy mal balance.

Pros:

De lo mejor que he estado en Colombia. Limpio hasta el más mínimo detalle, comodísimo, muy cuidado todo.
Se descansa muy bien porque da a un patio interior y no hay ruido.
Está en una ubicación ideal. En Getsemani, pero en esa calle no hay nada de ruido aunque está al lado de las más populares del barrio.
La atención fue magnífica, con consejos y ayuda en todo lo que preguntamos.
Volvería aquí sin dudarlo ni un momento.

Cons:

Nada, todo genial.

A estadia foi ótima, nos atendeu bem, estávamos em 6 pessoas e todos ficaram satisfeitos.
Pros:

A localização é excelente, você consegue andar a pé de noite e é muito bem localizado. Andávamos pelo Getsmani e pela cidade amuralhada tranquilamente a pé, como o hotel é apenas para nós dormirmos, cumpriu com o que esperávamos.

Cons:

O banheiro é um pouco apertado.
