The property itself is adequate and the staff is professional but not overly friendly. It’s located in a nice area of Gestemani, close to lots of bars/restaurants. The street was under construction so it was tough to navigate with luggage. The breakfast was just ok, but it’s free. As others mentioned, the music is pretty loud at night which definitely kept me up, but not my fiancée.

I had a good experience, the room was clean, customer service was friendly and helpful. They even let me leave my bags and use their lobby for awhile after I checked out. The breakfast was pretty good and the rooftop area was cool to hangout. Only thing I would complain about was the noise, you can hear Club music late night. But this was expected, it's a busy tourist area. Bring earbuds or just don't come to Colombia if music brothers you lol. Overall I thought it was great value and I look forward to visiting again.

The hotel was great! It was clean, comfortable, and the service was outstanding. We enjoyed the rooftop pool and bar. The hotel is also very close to restaurants and shops. Occasionally the music in the street was quite loud, as the hotel is located in a very busy part of Getsemani. If you want to be close to where things are happening at night, this is a great hotel choice.
