Well located.. No hot water and lack of storage. Lady at reception demanded 20,000 COP for a broken cup. The taxi from the airport costs 15,000 COP. Given the lack of integrity of staff, I suggest you look elsewhere.

Central Historic Cartagena

Overall this colonial in the centre of historic Cartagena does the job. The breakfast is great and there is 24hr reception. The hotel could do with a deep clean and better lighting in the rooms. Room size was typical for hotels from this era. For the price in the center it is a solid option.

This property has a good location in the walled city, though the property itself is a bit disappointing. The rooms are really small and difficult to navigate the room if more than a couple of days. I traveled as a Solo and found difficult time with room, and can imagine two persons would be a relationship test. Staff are very nice and cleanliness is OK

Great location inside the old city in a historic building. Very good breakfast. The desk staff always seemed to be in a bad mood and bothered by any inquiry. that was the only shortfall of an otherwise nice place to stay.

Convenient location a plus but more minuses

This very old structure converted to a hotel is located walking distance to many old city attractions. We had to pay for our entire stay before given our room so I guess the day lady at the desk didn't feel the need to be friendly after that (not even a goodbye when we left). Our small groundfloor room had a huge window (some may think as a plus but we kept curtain closed 24hr) overlooking the patio area where free breakfast is served. Breakfast choices are minimal but we enjoyed the daily fresh fruit & banana? bread. One night there was a long heavy downpour and raindrops came falling onto our pillows - we thought it was funny but some may not. We've stayed at the Ritz & other top brand hotels but we're also tent campers. If you're a camper you'll do fine if you're a Ritz kind of person stay away.

Great Location to Walk the Old City

My wife and I had a great experience. The hotel offers a great breakfast with fresh cut fruit, traditional home-made arepas and delicious Colombian coffee. The hotel is located half a block from a supermarket if you want to keep get some quick snack or even for a cheap dinner, it is very convenient. Also, it is located walking distance from many historic places such as churches. museums, nice restaurants, plazas, pubs, etc. Everything of the old city is walking distance. The bed is very comfortable and the hotel is also very quiet so you can rest well.

Great location, basic clean rooms,

Simple, basic guesthouse in a great location in the walled city. Friendly staff speaks no English. Room was clean but uncomfortable. WiFi worked great. Shower not so good. Room very small - not even a chair to sit in. Staff was very helpful when I lost key to the safe. Hotel is OK for the price.

Character hotel in old Cartagena

We had 4 days here and really enjoyed it. The only difficulty was the lack of English but, after all, this is a Spanish-speaking country. Sign language and Google go a long way!

Messed up the reservation

We were supposed to stay at this hotel in Centro. However they messed up the reservation and did not have our 2 rooms available. So they pawned us off to a sister hotel. A sister hotel on the outskrits of Getsamani. A sister hotel with a room right on the street. A sister hotel with a 24 hour marching band. I felt like I was a character in the movie Hostel. We also lost 2 hours of our final day in CTG due to the fiasco.
