For the price it's a great hotel, clean, good service, good breakfast, the restaurant could have better food options for the day. It is "far" and not that "easy" walk to downtown Cartagena, but it's very close to the airport. Again, all th staff was great, and it was very clean, pool has games for kids, and there is also a kid's area. Right outside there is a 2km nice circuit to run Moving in taxi is very easy and accessible

The room had a musty smell due to humidity. The phone didn’t work properly, so we had to visit the reception multiple times to request basic services. The dirty towels were not replaced, and we had to ask for fresh ones. In addition, the safe was broken, and they had to drill it open so we could access our belongings. To make matters worse, I experienced food poisoning after eating fish at their restaurant. I needed to go to the hospital and pay for treatment. Initially, they mentioned they would review the situation for a refund, but after sending multiple follow-up emails, I received no response. We checked out last Thursday and will not be returning.

This is lower than a motel; it was dirty, no hot water and extremely expensive for the quality of the accommodation. Not sure why it had previously good reviews. One of the worse places I have stayed in a long time. The lights in the room are beyond aggressive. Breakfast was tasteless.

Great if you just want a affordable stay.

The place was decent for the price and once i got there i understood why it was so much cheaper than Las Americas, the hotel I usually stay. Positives: price, location close to airport, comfy beds Negatives: does not look like pictures online, pool.area always crowded and very small, complicated beach access, breakfast was horrible
