Elle propose une nuit dans un autre hôtel de standing inférieur,après négociations de plus d’une heure (quelle perte de temps!!) elle trouve un meilleur hôtel et offre une expédition. Sinon l’hôtel est un lieu splendide avec patio, terrasse avec vue sur Cartagena ,chambres ultra confortables, le quartier est très agréable ##### karina Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 24 Apr 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Un poco de ruido pero es normal la madera lo transmite porque el hotel es rustico...

This place has a nice ambiance with really friendly staff that treat you really nice. Some people might think of the area as a little scummy, but I did not have any problems and even walking home at 1am, I had some locals shout at me "welcome to Cartagena" I thought this was nice. I would recommend this hostel. ##### Paul Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2018 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Gilles 2 Oct 2018 Disliked: Staff & service #### To Be Avoided To be avoided. This hostel has the potential to be a gem, but it would need another staff and management. We have been robbed while we had left our belongings in a "safe place" provided by the hostel. What we listed as "valuables" were not touched, but our bags were 'visited', zippers broken, and contents moved around. Furthermore, we were given another room than the one we booked, close to the breakfast area, extremely noisy. Finally, on one occasion our door was left unlocked and open by the cleaning staff. To be avoided or at your own risks... We'll never go back. ##### Gilles Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2018 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Verified traveller 16 Mar 2018 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Skip Room smelled like urine and poor construction of building. Could hear every step upstairs and even them flushing the toilet and showering. Ceiling was dropping wood particles on the bed and they did nothing about it. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### Bruna, Brasil 22 Feb 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service #### Albergue com boa localização e quartos amplos Como diversos comentários o albergue ainda não possui agua quente no chuveiro, o que talvez seja realmente o unico ponto negativo.

Die Reservierung lag zwar in ausgedruckter Form vor und man wusste auch, dass wir kommen, nur Zimmer waren nicht mehr verfügbar. Es hat uns einen gesamten Urlaubstag gekostet bis wir die 2 reservierten Nächte in einem anderen Hotel verbringen konnten. Ich wüsste gerne wer dies zu verschulden hat: Expedia oder Fruends to be?? Das Hotel verwies ganz klar an Expedia....Ich bitte um Rückinfo. Vielen Dank Sebastian Heller ##### sebastian Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2017 ### 6/10 Okay #### missy, Los Angeles 1 Sept 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Disliked: Staff & service My mom and I stayed here for 4 nights. The hotel itself was beautiful and In a great location. Walking distance to the old city and castle. Our room was clean and really nice. However the hotel staff were not the friendliest. They gave us anything we needed a towel, toilet paper, wifi password, etc., but they weren't friendly. We didn't even get a hello when we walked in. ##### missy Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2017 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 1 Mar 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Hotel muy limpio!

La habitación es amplia y cómoda, sin embargo sus instalaciones requieren mantenimiento. Sobre la cama en la dormíamos amanecíamos llenos de residuos de madera a causa del comején a modo de ejemplo, para que saliera agua por la ducha (no así por el inodoro ni el lavamanos) se requería informar al personal del hotel para que hicieran algo y así ya poder bañarnos. Las instalaciones del hotel son agradables y corresponde a la imágenes que se ofertan en publicaciones. ##### Marcela ### 8/10 Good #### Jon 28 Sept 2016 Liked: Property conditions & facilities #### Hotel recoleto, agradable EL calor y la humedad nos hicieron sufrir un poco pero la gente fué muy amable en general ##### Jon ### 6/10 Okay #### Roy, Heredia 12 Sept 2016 Disliked: Cleanliness, room comfort #### Buscaría otra opción la próxima vez. Esperaba más del hotel, primero la atención es regular por parte del personal. Con 3 noches de estadía solo un día hicieron limpieza en el cuarto. Reservamos una hab doble, nos dieron la no 6 en el primer piso. Lamentablemente quedaba junto a la zona de bar, por lo cual manejaban la música un poco alto para mi gusto, lo cual me impedía descansar en la tarde. Para una persona fiestera no significaba un problema, pero mi esposa y yo somos más de descansar..si este es su caso pues mejor busque otro lugar. El hotel es rústico, y se entiende se busca ese tipo de acabados, sin embargo en la ducha el piso es de concreto y se ve sucio, fue pintado pero actualmente tiene un color amarillento un poco desagradable. Bien ubicado, piscina como para niños nada más...buscaría otra opción la próxima vez. ##### Roy ### 6/10 Okay #### Jose David, Bogotá 27 Jun 2016 Liked: Property conditions & facilities #### Baños El baño estaba sucio, de resto todo fue dentro de lo esperado. ##### Jose David ### 8/10 Good #### angie, switzerland 8 May 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### nice hostel with pool at great location nice hostel in getsemani with dorms and double rooms shower is really nice, clean, pool, breakfast (not included), nice and helpful staff, laundry service and 24h reception, good place on a quite street but still in the middle of everything (old town, bars, restaurants, castle etc) ##### angie ### 6/10 Okay #### Sophie, LDN 17 Apr 2016 Disliked: Cleanliness, room comfort #### Nice hostel but not very comfortable Hostel courtyard looks great but actually the pool is very small, only really big enough to cool off in not to swim in. The rooms are decorated well and look stylish but unfortunately we had to move from our first ground floor room because something was falling down from the ceiling and leaving dust / dirt all over the bed. In our second room we had a lizard for company.. Location is good but it was very quiet, likely because we went in shoulder season but if you want a party / sociable hostel I would probably suggest elsewhere.. ##### Sophie ### 4/10 Poor #### Andrea 12 Mar 2016 Liked: Cleanliness #### Disappointed Unfortunately the doors into the room where not secure. Also the vents in the doors allowed mozzies into the room. We got savaged with bites that night. No water in the shower the day we stayed. Sink looked really grubby but that may have been the desired look. The room was huge. Air con worked well. The communal spaces outside seemed lovely and well maintained. Great location. However, Checked out early as didn't want to be covered in mozzie bites. ##### Andrea ### 6/10 Okay #### claudia, Bogota 8 Mar 2016 Liked: Staff & service #### A noisy hotel in a nice colonial house I had a very nice stay in this same house about four years ago, when it had a different name, and that's why I came back. The hotel is not very expensive (but not cheap), the house is beautiful and the neighbourhood has character. This time they gave me the room on the back, first floor in front of the patio and it was not pleasant at all. The room has no windows and your can hear all the music from the patio, then the TV and at 2 am people coming from a party who stayed for about two hours in the patio making too much noise. So if you want to go partying and arrive to the hotel at about 2 am, it might be fine. In my case, I was tired coming from the film festival at 9 pm and was not able to have a good night rest. ##### claudia ### 6/10 Okay #### Julian, Bogota 22 Jan 2016 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Cleanliness, room comfort #### AQQE Bien buen hostal mejorar las camas y baños pero el resto muy bueno ##### Julian ### 8/10 Good #### Dani, Luzern, Schweiz 20 Jan 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Neues Hotel in Zentrumsnähe Das Hotel hat erst drei Tage vor unserer Ankunft eröffnet und dementsprechend neu war die komplette Einrichtung! Es war noch nicht alles 100% fertiggestellt, aber das hat in keiner Weise gestört.

Excelente lugar Cuando llegué me dijeron que la reserva no estaba efectuada, que no trabajaban con Hoteles.com, y aunque les mostré la reservación en mi celular, negaban que existiera, yo había reservado hacía un mes. Luego de media hora, como tenían disponibilidad me ubicaron, pasé un muy mal momento luego de llegar todo el día viajando, 3 aviones, siendo de noche que me digan semejante cosa. Eso fue lo único opaco de la experiencia. El hostel tiene un diseño de lujo, es hermoso, y muy cálido, la atención es muy buena. Ojo NO TIENE COCINA, venden cositas para picar. Desayuno pobre. ##### Verified traveller ### 10/10 Excellent #### Erin, New Orleans, La 12 Jan 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities #### Awesome HOSTEL in central part of Getsemani I loved this hostel. I was so surprised with how cheap it was for the location and amenities. There is a beautiful courtyard with a bar that also serves some food. Many guests were lounging in the courtyard, so it was easy to make friends. There is a beautiful rooftop patio that overlooks the city. The staff was GREAT! I highly recommend this place. Of course it is a hostel, so dormitory style bunk beds and all that. Great for young people on a budget. ##### Erin ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 5 Jan 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Super gelegenes Boutique Hostel Gerade neu eröffnetes Hostel, mit viel Aufmerksamkeit eingerichtet und eher in der Boutique Hostel Kategorie. Hilfsbereites Personal und gute Stimmung. Das Hostel liegt in einer Seitenstraße vom Backpacker Strip, interessantes Viertel. Großes Plus sind die hohen Räume, die Bar und die Dachterasse. ##### Verified traveller ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 8 Feb 2018 Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### Verified traveller Stayed 6 nights in Feb 2018 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Hotels with Early Check-in in Barcelona](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Barcelona-Hotels-Hotel-With-Early-Check-In.0-0-d179992-thotelwithearlycheckin.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [5 Star Hotels in Kos](https://www.expedia.co.uk/5Star-Kos-Hotels.s50-0-d1804.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Wrangham House Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Filey-Hotels-Wrangham-House-Hotel.h900778.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Douglas](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Douglas-Hotels.d4307.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Forte Village Resort - Le Dune](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pula-Hotels-Forte-Village-Resort-Le-Dune.h24031755.Hotel-Information) > > [TravelodgeIreland Hotels in Dublin](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dublin-Hotels-Travelodge-Ireland.0-0-d178256--bTravelodgeIreland.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotels in Andorra](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Destinations-In-Andorra.d4.Hotel-Destinations) > > [Hotel Las Americas Torre del Mar](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cartagena-Hotels-Hotel-Las-Americas-Torre-Del-Mar.h4469515.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Garden Inn Muscat Al Khuwair](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Muscat-Hotels-Hilton-Garden-Inn-Muscat-Al-Khuwair.h32150300.Hotel-Information) > > [Element By Westin Bali Ubud](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ubud-Hotels-Element-By-Westin-Bali-Ubud.h23072752.Hotel-Information) > > [JOIVY Apartments - 5\* Central Georgian Apartment (2 Bed)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-ALTIDO-Apartments-5-Central-Georgian-Apartment.h54687286.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Province of Syracuse](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Destinations-In-Province-Of-Syracuse.d6052967.Hotel-Destinations) > > [Hotels in Slough](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Slough-Hotels.d5688.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [The Royal Senchi Hotel and Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Akosombo-Hotels-The-Royal-Senchi-ResortHotel.h9073641.Hotel-Information) > > [Lagon Life Spirit Boutique Hotel - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Chania-Hotels-Lagon-Life-Spirit-Boutique-Hotel.h41970798.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Alanya](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Alanya-Hotels.d4671.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Sheraton Universal Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Los-Angeles-Hotels-Sheraton-Universal-Hotel.h10003.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [British Airways Chantilly (IAD) to London (LHR) flights](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flight-routes/british-airways-from-washington-dulles-intl-to-heathrow/ba/iad/lhr) > > [Flights from London (LHR) to Rodopi (PDV)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/lhr/pdv/london-to-plovdiv) > > [Flights from Jakarta (CGK) to Labuan Bajo (LBJ)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/cgk/lbj/jakarta-to-labuan-bajo) > > [Flights from Manchester (MAN) to Bangkok (BKK)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/man/bkk/manchester-to-bangkok) ### Cars ### Packages > [Logan Rock](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Logan-Rock-Penzance.d6094435.Attraction) > > [San Sebastián Holidays](https://www.expedia.co.uk/San-Sebastian.d6084360.Holidays-City-Breaks) > > [Taguig Holidays](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Taguig.d6141586.Holidays-City-Breaks) ### General > [Visit Cemmaes](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cemmaes.dx3000012013) ---
