A wonderful stay in a gorgeous hotel with a perfect location.
Pros:

This was our last hotel to stay at in Colombia and it was just perfect. Great location, lovely staff, very quiet, delicious breakfast, clean, gorgeous rooftop with pool and comfy beds. They also give you free water.

Nothing major but the hot water wasn’t very hot, but hot enough for a shower so we didn’t complain.

Schmuckstück mitten im schönen Cartagena .
Pros:

Die Lage dieses Boutique Hotel war fantastisch: zentral aber ruhig. Das Personal war super nett .
Das Hotel ist ein Traum: eine alte Villa sehr schmalvoll renoviert und dekoriert. Die Terrasse hat eine schöne Pool mit frischem Wasser und Aussicht auf die Kathedrale. Das Frühstück war perfekt: klein aber lecker und gesund.

Cons:

alle war schön.
