The hotel needs to step up its game with room cleanliness and layout, but it's conveniently located for exploring both the walled city and the airport. The dining options may be a bit basic, but the staff is kind and attentive.

Staying at this hotel was an interesting experience. The rooms, although basic, had everything needed for a short stay and were really nice and comfortable. The location, while not the best, was convenient being near the city center and offering a safe environment. The dining was enjoyable but a little overpriced. Overall, a mixed but decent stay.

My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms had a great contemporary design with a view of the bay, a comfortable bed, and a great shower, but I found a big hair on my pillow and in the bathroom. The service was good overall, but I had to ask for dirty plates to be cleared from the tables. The location felt very safe and was close to various attractions, but seemed a bit seedy with limited offerings. The dining options were variable, well-stocked but a bit pricey for local standards.

What a wonderful hotel! The location is amazing, steps away from the beach and surrounded by great dining options. The rooms were spotless and cozy, and the staff was incredibly friendly. My only small gripe was the somewhat limited breakfast selection, but overall a delightful stay.

My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall. The rooms offer a great view of the water, they are clean and fresh, but they are a bit small, similar to a cruise ship. The breakfast options could be improved to better suit everyone's taste.

The hotel is good for its proximity to the sea and being near the airport. It's a nice balance between Accor and Ibis, and it offers good value for a stay in Cartagena.

While the breakfast was a little expensive, I found it delicious. However, for a more budget-friendly option, I recommend trying a cafe in the old town.
