Pros

Multiple communal spaces with gaming equipment and hammocks

Local restaurants within 984.3 ft including Carmen Restaurant and Lobo de Mar

Support for local tour guides and suppliers

Cons

Breakfast not included in room rates

Some rooms feature shared bathroom facilities

“This property's central location in Cartagena is a definite advantage, allowing easy exploration; however, some reports mention inconsistencies in cleanliness, particularly in shared spaces like the kitchen and pool. I would say that travelers looking for a social atmosphere might find it appealing.”
