Cartagena en la Boquilla

Stay was only 1 night and the people were very nice but it wasn't in the hotel pictured as they told me it was in "tower 2" but since it was only 1 night didn't complain. Staff was exceedingly nice though.

The staff of the hotel is so kind

The stag is so kind, I forgot mi jacket I. The hotel and they take it for me to te airport. I would recommends you to ask them for the transport to the center of Cartagena, they charge you less than taxis and offer great service.

Very Happy.

The staff was so friendly and helpful, but no one spoke English. Not a problem for me. I booked 2 nights, but will stay longer because it is so relaxing and comfortable here. Each floor has a sitting area, television and balcony. Breakfast served on roof top and was very nice. Cool breeze. Really didn't need the airconditioner which worked very nicely. Can get a local dinner for 12,000 pesos. I had fresh whole fish.

À éviter

Nous sommes arrivés avec notre vol passé minuit. Personne pour nous acceuillir et porte barrée. Nous avons cogné a plusieurs reprises et fait le tour de la bâtisse avant qu'un garçon se réveille du salon venir nous ouvrir. Chambre avec vu sur une salle de réunion intérieur et ils indiquent de ne pas ouvrir la fenètre extérieur question de sécurité... Chambre correct pour le prix.

Un hotel "economico" limpio y muy amable

El hotel de Valmar es un htel limpio ubicado en el pueblo de La Boquilla un pueblo de pescadores. El personal del hotel hace todo lo posible por hacer la estancia agradable pero es muy notable la falta de capacitacion del mismo. Quisiera dar unos ejemplos. 1. Hice la reservacion por hoteles.com a cierta cantidad, cuando llegue me comentaron que si queria AC en la habitacion tenia que pagar algo adicional. 2. Un dia nos cambiaron de habitacion sin notificarnos antes, esto siginifica que ellos movieron TODAS nuestras pertenencias. 3. El ultimo dia me notifican que no habia pagado por la estancia, no tenian terminal para pagar con tarjeta de credito y yo no tenia efectivo pero el personal muy amablemente me llevo a un ATM. Lo reitero el pueblo es un pueblo de pescadores en una comunidad muy humilde. La gente del hotel hace todo lo posible por hacer su estancia muy comoda.

La ubicación y alimentación

El hotel se encuentra en una zona que da miedo, las instalaciones necesitan cambios, el tema de alimentación que ofrecen como Desayuno, es un medio huevo revuelto y 2 panes tostados, osea es algo que mata el servicio,. Ni ganas de regresar a ese hotel,

El hotel espectacular

El hotel es hermoso sus instalaciones y el aseo y orden todo muy bien el desayuno sencillo pero rico la atención la amabilidad de la gente en el Hotel lo único es que es retirado del centro de Cartagena , un promedio de 7 .00 dollares para coger taxi , pero después uno puede llegar a coger bus y es cómodo además de interactuar con la gente de la zona , que son pescadores . Y es segura

Nicht für Touristen geeignet.

Das Hotel liegt in einem Ghetto. Wie jemand auf die Idee kommt, ein kleines Hotel in so einer Gegend zu bauen ist für mich einfach verblüffend. Ich bin gebürtiger Kolumbianer und spanisch Muttersprachler und trotzdem würde ich keinem dieses Hotel weiterempfehlen. Vor allem Ausländer die kein Spanisch sprechen haben hier wirklich nichts zu suchen… es sei denn ihr wollt nur hin, nichts essen, euch einsperren, schlafen und am nächsten Tag ein Taxi bestellen und sofort abhauen.
