9.0 out of 10, Wonderful, (92 reviews)
"Welcoming and friendly place to stay in Cartagena. Nice helpful staff, clean rooms, comfortable bed, free breakfast, cooling AC, 3 minute walk from the airport. While located in a more residential area had no issues finding places to eat, shop or transport to the center of the city. My only issue was the slow or nonfunctional wifi. Overall a decent place to stay!!!"
