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.

Na primeira noite pegamos um quarto frente à rua, impossível dormir, buzina a noite toda, muito barulho. Logo cedo falamos com os funcionários que prontamente nos transferiram de quarto.

Cons:

O chuveiro sai pouquíssima água.
