Great getaway
We had a lovely time at Duck House. The setting, next to the river and amidst the mountains, is quite spectacular. The food was great. It was nice to have a small pool and bar - and that they were set back away from the rooms. The cost of the room struck us as a little pricey, but I suppose we chose the most luxurious option and didn't take advantage of the jacuzzi. The bed was huge, but not that comfortable. Oscar and Alejandra were very welcoming and helpful. Overall a great spot for a weekend away from the cold and chaos of Bogotá. Disfrutamos mucho nuestra estadía en Duck House. La ubicación - al lado del río y entre las montañas - es espectacular. La comida estuvo rica. Fue chévere tener la piscinita y bar - y que estaban alejados de las habitaciones. El costo de nuestra habitación nos parecía un poco alto, pero escogimos la opción más lujosa y no aprovechamos el jacuzzi. La cama era gigantezca, pero hubiera podido ser más cómoda. Oscar y Alejandra nos hicieron sentir en casa y nos ayudaron mucho. En resumen nos pareció un lugar excelente para escapar el frío y el caos de Bogotá por un fin de semana.
