6.6/10
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The location was perfect, right next to Gabriel Garcia Marquez's house and only a block away from San Diego plaza, making it very convenient for exploring Cartagena. However, the condition of the hotel was not up to par in terms of cleanliness. The dining options were limited, offering only a basic breakfast, but the atmosphere was nice and suited my taste for Asian dishes.
Rooms
6.0
Being a tall and big guy, I found the lack of natural light in the room, especially in the shower area, to be a bit inconvenient. Additionally, the room did not have a window, which made it feel a bit cramped.
Service
7.0
The service was a mix of extremes. While they were beyond helpful with providing information about the area and accommodating an early breakfast for my trip schedule, there was an issue with a credit that was not resolved. The staff, though young, did their best, but the owner's lack of presence was noticeable.
Location
8.0
The location was truly the highlight of the hotel. Situated right in Old Town near Plaza de San Diego and Gabriel Garcia Marquez's residence, it was very central and convenient for exploring the city. However, the superficial 'make-up' of the surroundings left something to be desired.
Dining
5.0
The dining experience was a bit disappointing as it offered only a basic breakfast of fruits and eggs. The limited options, although Asian dishes were available, did not vary much each day.
Facilities
The facilities were minimal, and the poor cleaning conditions were evident. However, the hotel seemed to lack the necessary upkeep to ensure a comfortable stay.
