Pour découvrir la quartier mais pas plus
Pros:

L’emplacement et l’ambiance

Cons:

Problème d’humidité difficile à gérer et manque d’ouverture dans les chambres du fait de l’orientation des fenêtres qui donne sur le patio. On se sens pas bien dans ces chambres.

Pros:

Lovely staff, great coffee in the lobby, nice older hotel with character, extremely central location. Rooftop deck is a great place to hang out too. Got an internal room which was quiet and cool.

Cons:

Rooms not exposed directly to the sun have a slight musty smell, probably hard to combat in Cartagena.
