Pros:

El lugar es hermoso, permite sentirse desconectado pero en pleno Rodadero y cerca de todo, el personal es muy amable y dispuesto a ayudar.
Nos quedamos varios días y una noche guardaron nuestro equipaje sin cobrarnos para ir a alojarnos al parque tayrona y volver, también nos ofrecieron un desayuno típico un día. Muchísimas gracias 😊

Cons:

Creo que podrían integrar fruta en el desayuno, es más flojito de lo que ofrecen en otros hospedajes.
