Posted on Tripadvisor carolinamoralespohlVerified Hermosísimo y el staff muy atento. Superando las expectativas en cuanto a decoración en pleno centro histórico . Las obras de arte le dan un toque adicional. Lo único es que vendría bien un minibar con agua fría para el calor de la ciudad aunque eso sí lo compensa con creces el desayuno, excelente!!Posted on Tripadvisor Juanita VVerified Recomendadisimo este lugar Hermoso el lugar, las personas que atienden son super serviciales. La habitación es espectacular, es super central por lo que es muy facil acceder a cualquier sitio en el centro histórico. Se siente muy cálido y comfortable estar alla, me encantóPosted on Tripadvisor Alcira AVerified Nos encantó! El hotel es moderno pero con el ambiente propio de Cartagena, súper bien ubicado, muy cómodo y los desayunos en Cande espectaculares! El nombre está bien puesto porque no es un hotel full service, pero es justo lo necesario. Super recomendado!Posted on Tripadvisor Stephanie LVerified Exelente Tuve una estadía excelente. La propiedad es cómoda, espaciosa y muy bien decorada. Además, la privacidad y tranquilidad que ofrece la hicieron perfecta para descansar y desconectarse. ¡Definitivamente recomendaría este lugar para quien busque un espacio bonito y acogedor!Posted on Tripadvisor J LVerified Beautiful Hotel and Amazing Staff, Not 5 stars Beautiful Room, hot in the common areas, AC in your room only. Hot water is more like warm to cold, Rooms are not sound proof as mentioned, 2 nights we can hear neighbors conversations in middle of the night waking us. Would be nice if they provided outdoor security as the area can be concerning after hours with rappers n vendors harassing everyone do not feel area is safe when sun goes down. Hotel Staff and cleanliness are super amazing. Again Beautiful hotel.Posted on Tripadvisor andresrB7Verified Una estadía muy buena Todo estuvo bien desde la llegada fácil, el proceso totalmente sencillo, el personal de lo mejor, fui con mi pareja quien reservó, pero disfruté de su paz y la amabilidad de el personal es poco pero son muy serviciales, volveremos sin dudar.Posted on Tripadvisor vanessa dVerified Experiencia en Privado rooms Me encantó todo en Privado rooms la decoración, la atención, la comodidad y la locación es perfecta para disfrutar de la ciudad todo queda muy cerca muy recomendado 10/10.
