Really nice staff. The breakfast was really good, with real authentic Colombian food. My only note is that my room felt a bit musty. It may be due to the weather and climate, but overall nice room and amenities.

Upon check in at the hotel, the receptionist stated that my reservation was for a single bedded room for one adult only. A lengthy discussion ensued. I repeatedly asked the receptionist to give me a print-out of the reservation showing the single bed/one adult booking as received from Expedia. I was given a print-out which showed a Superior Room for 2 people – i.e. my Expedia booking. No mention of the single bedded room for one person. So I don't know how the claim that I had booked a single bedded room for one person came about. I am pleased to report that the room I was given was exactly that described and depicted in the photos on the Expedia website for Twin/Double Bedded room – Superior room. My other comments are:- • The hotel describes itself as 5 star – in my opinion it is only a 3 star. It did not even have in-room coffee/tea making facilities or even offer complementary water as is common in most hotels these days. • The rooms have been refurbished over the years – but they tend to be noisy and I could hear the occupants in adjacent rooms. As mentioned above, this was very much a nostalgic visit for my wife and I. It was OK as a 3 star hotel But it was the check-in hassle very much left a sour taste in my mouth hence my rating. There are many more hotels now available in Cartagena which will provide an improved experience for the same price or less.
