Reviews and Ratings
Staying at this hotel was a mixed experience. On one hand, it's conveniently located right by the kitchen, making it easy to get food. However, this proximity may lead to some noise. The rooms were comfortable, but keep in mind you're close to where the hustle and bustle might be. The service was decent, with room service available. The hotel is very close to Cartagena's port, providing easy access if you're planning to visit the island. The dining options were limited, so if you're picky about your meals, you might want to explore other places nearby. The facilities are basic but functional.
The hotel is conveniently located right by the kitchen and offers a cozy atmosphere. The service was satisfactory, but the Wi-Fi connectivity was not ideal. Overall, a decent stay with some room for improvement in certain areas.
