I had to slam my hotel room door in order to be able to close it, which caused a lot of noise. It would have been helpful if there was a towel rack where we can hang used towels - which would help the towels dry after use.

Mixed Feelings
Mixed feelings… before I get into the specifics…I would stay here again. The great: the location and overall aesthetic. The location is right in the heart of town. Easy walk to eveyrthing. Jorge at the pool deck is GREAT! His service is phenomenal. The roof top pool deck, bar and view is reason enough to stay here. I added another day to my trip just because of it. (I stayed 4 nights at Casa San Agustin) and 2 nights here. The service overall is very good as well. Jhordan the concierge was great. They had my room ready early and allowed me to check out an hour late. They help you to and from your room with your luggage also and are quite prompt. Everyone was friendly and accommodating. The good: the food I had at the pool was tasty! Fried fish , rice with coconut and grilled mixed veggies. The drinks were also good. The ordered breakfast was also nice. The Arepa con queso was delish. The “needs work”: rooms are in need of quality review and maintenance. Stained furniture, peeling walls, low water pressure (sink), mold issues (hard to combat in high humidity and heavy rains but still), heavy dust build up on ceiling fans, shower floors that don’t drain properly and inconsistent toiletries/robes. The beds could also use a topper as I found them a bit hard and I like a firm mattress. The breakfast buffet left something to be desired (stale croissants, tasteless watery scrambled eggs and fruit flys galore) but plentiful in options. Just order from the kitchen.

The exceptional care provided from the moment you check in to the moment you leave. The rooms are spacious and beautifully appointed, the views from the rooftop pool is incredible. Room service prompt and the food was excellent. I wouldn’t consider staying anywhere else if I return to Cartagena and recommend you do the same. Spectacular

The property is beautiful! The rooms are nice. I understand that the city humid but the mold and mildew in the bathroom was crazy. A good bleaching and the hotel would be perfect. Also we got charged $1 a day per person for insurance as we were leaving. Not a high price but still this was never explained. As I head to the airport I have no clue what I was insured for. I was here 3 months ago at a different hotel and I was charged nothing as I checked out. Overall great hotel and great staff.
