The hotel was great! It was clean, comfortable, and the service was outstanding. We enjoyed the rooftop pool and bar. The hotel is also very close to restaurants and shops. Occasionally the music in the street was quite loud, as the hotel is located in a very busy part of Getsemani. If you want to be close to where things are happening at night, this is a great hotel choice.

Great boutique hotel. Very clean and staff are very helpful and nice. The 3 Pools are small but relaxing. I enjoyed them. This is in a great neighborhood full of shops, bars, and restaurants. The downside to that is that it is very loud and you can hear the music and cars honking throughout the night until five in the morning. I had trouble sleeping a few nights because of how loud it was. The construction very early in the morning is also loud. Aside from that my overall stay was excellent.

You just gotta be careful with the safe box. Because they got keys and they will go in and pick at it. I was missing a couple of $20 dollar bills and 1$100 Colombian bills. So be extremely careful, with what you put in it.

Be really careful with the safe box. Because they

The hotel it wasn't bad. You just gotta be careful leaving you're valuable. I left five hundred dollars 3 -$100 bills and 8-$20 bills And 10-$100 colombian bills in the safe box, they have a keys. And what they do is they open your box and they take just a few bills. So you won't realize that they took it in my case, they took 2 $20 dollar bills and 1 $100 Colombian bill. I guess they figured that you go there to patty. And drink and you won know what you got. So just be really careful in this place. Extremely careful wait, what you put in your safe box!

Mal servicio por el personal

Uno de los peores lugares donde me he quedado. Sin incluir al recepcionista, el personal siempre anda de mal genio. Empezando por las cocineras y terminado por el chico de la entrada que nunca supe que posición o cargo tenia en ese lugar. Me parecía mas un portero que otra cosa. Mal educado por cierto y muy feo.

The room & bathroom were nice. The AC was definitely appreciated. The multiple pool areas & roof top bar was nice too. Lots of walkable dining options- fancy & not fancy restaurants. The hotel is in the middle of the activity- like the other reviews say, expect it to be loud (music every night until 2:30/3 am. I read the reviews before booking & was expecting it & not bothered. Hot water was iffy- it depended on the time of day. The hotter it was outside, the more guaranteed you were to have hot water. I took a shower at 10pm & didn't have much. We had a great stay & would definitely stay here again.
