Great place to stay

Quality hotel, convenient location. Parking has a few paid lots in the area and connected to the hotel. We were there on a weekend so we just parked on the street to save money because Colombia doesn't have parking meter enforcement on Saturday and Sundays. Good place would stay again.

The hotel was very clean. The evening check in staff was very rude and seem to not want to be there. I have stayed here 3 times and it was a first to experience a rude staff member. But the rooms are always clean even though it seem the air conditioner was not working well in the room since it was a one night stay I did not feel the need to complain of issue. Parking is awkward, skecthy, as well as smelly since you have to walk where the dumpsters are in order to get to the hotel. So please be mindful of that.

Location is definitely the positive for this hotel. May need to leave the room to change your mind as the accommodations are very “cozy”. The hotel was clean and the front desk staff was nice. Bar area seems to be popular.
