Pros:

Excelente localização. Bem perto dos principais pontos turísticos. E do centro histórico. Funcionários simpáticos e solícitos.

Cons:

Quando chegamos inicialmente ficamos em um quarto em que a porta do banheiro não fechava porque batia na pia! Mas prontamente se dispuseram a nos alocar. Nao indicaria para pessoas com mobilidade reduzida - muita escada.

Un buen lugar para conocer el centro de Bogota
Pros:

Es un hotel sencillo pero muy limpio y el personal es muy amable. El desayuno lo sirven en una cafeteria que está justo al lado el sitio es muy agradable y el desayuno esta ok. La ubicación es excelente si lo que se busca es conocer los lugares turisticos del centro, esta muy cerca del museo del oro y de otros lugares de interes, se puede caminar muy bien por el sector y conocer varios museos. Esta frente a una universidad por lo que en la noche circula mucha gente por el sector.

Cons:

No fue un problema para nosotros pero son 4 pisos sin ascensor, es importante tenerlo en cuenta para las personas que tienen mobilidad reducida.

Pros:

La ubicación es perfecta. El lugar limpio.el restaurante anexo es de buena calidad.

Cons:

Hay políticas que lo permiten, pero no es claro desde un comienzo que se deben dejar las llaves en la portería cada vez que se salga. Es totalmente absurdo. La televisión no funcionaba. El espacio un poco pequeño, se escucha mucho el ruido de los otros espacios.
