Breakfast was not great, wifi failed every ten minutes, no garbage cans in the room, not allowed to make local calls from the room to cell phones and wayyyyyy to overpriced for what you get in return.

Short stay - mostly good value for money
Had stayed here before, generally good value for the money and quite comfy rooms, though this time none of the nice rooms were available: a 5th floor room to the front with balcony doors not closing well receives a lot of noise from the street, and an internal room on the 2nd floor is a little dark and there was some construction noise. The hotel should really get some more TV channels, the selection is extremely limited. Basic breakfast included. Plenty of decent lunch-type restaurants close by (university area), nice gym next door.

The location is great. Easy in and out to downtown and the various neighborhoods; easy to get to the airport (under 25min!... I've stayed in other zones and it always take at least one hour). The staff is friendly; our room was small for two people but fine for one. We did not stay much in the room so that was not an issue. Food options are more or less available (we did not find much on Saturday night nearby); it is also safe because of the proximity to the university. There are two very conveniently located express supermarkets and very close bus stops. We loved the location.

Short-term stay
Well taken care of, clean hotel close to universities, restaurants, Transmilenio bus and a large park. Room had a very comfy king-size bed, the building was quiet and breakfast better than at most hotels of this price range. Good value for money. Room was of decent size and bright, it faced the busy 7th Avenue so had a bit of a view, though that also meant that early mornings there was a bit of traffic noise despite the (large) double-pane windows.

Lots of little problems
Could be a nice hotel. Right across from university. Lots of construction going on day and night. Bed was comfortable. Shower had hot water and good water pressure. But there were lots of little problems. Had to stand outside in a construction zone when I arrived because there was no one to let me in. Construction was LOUD in the upper levels of the hotel. Also, the construction on the street goes all night. No internet in the room, only in the common area. Elevator not working when I left - so had to lug everything downstairs. They called me a yellow taxi - the worst part - and the guy started talking to someone else on Whatsapp about me (my spanish is bad, but I can understand it OK), then he tried to take me to the north of the city, when I was going to the west. Finally I argued with him about the direction we were going and he took me to my destination. Called the hotel. They said they'd look into it, but I never heard back. I'd try someplace else.

The hotel is ok
I was only one day there but in that day did not like a lot the facility. The receptionist was ok; the room did not have heater, have a light bulb no working; the breakfast es poor. Well overall for the price I did not expect more.

Solid three star hotel
Solid three star hotel. Minor points for improvement are: coffee quality, TV needs more English channels (including English news channels), and some staff members need to treat frequent guests with respect, courtesy and to acknowledge their patronage instead of conveying petty hotel policies. The latter points are minor irritants in the grand scheme of things. The hotel is also situated in a good area with lots of amenities.

This is a basic hotel. It is the right relation for money and value. Basic breakfast and good location. Hotel front desk provides very basic info about services in the area so use your wi-fi and do your own research.

Clean safe hotel close to a major university
Clean and safe hotel with very nice staff in front of Javeriana University in the main artery of Bogota : carrera septima. 40 minute walk to the Gold Museum and the historic downtown district and if you go in the opposite direction you can reach the elegant Zona Rosa. If you do not want to walki, taxis are many and relatively cheap from there.

Great Value
The hotel is in a great area. It's close to all the major attractions. Can't complain about that at all. The breakfast is an actual full breakfast, fruit, coffee, fresh juice, cereal, bread, eggs. It was a nice surprise in the morning. The staff was extremely accommodating and nice.If you stay along the major road, it gets loud. I didn't mind it but my girlfriend hates noise so we moved rooms, which had no issues. The bed was a little stiff for my taste but my girlfriend loved it and slept like a baby. Also, the tv had great variety if you just wanted to relax for a bit. I got caught up on "The Walking Dead" lol. The only real complaint is that the shower is small, very small. It's just big enough for one person but you couldn't really move around in there. I think it was as big is the little closet but the water was hot and the pressure was good. I'm sure other rooms have a bigger shower but we just got stuck with that one. That's pretty much it. The staff really made up for whatever was lacking.

It served its purpose
No one spoke English. we were stuck with using google translate on the front desk clerk computer. There also construction going on early in the morning so we're waken up with that. The shower was really small. The breakfast was ok. Everyone was nice even if there was a language barrier. We were offered agua when we arrived which was amazing because me and my friend were dehydrated(altitude) it was perfect for us because we were close to the bars we wanted to go to. If you want to be closer to the tourist attracting stay around calle 13 and Carrera 7

Excellent stay
Great hotel with a very good price-quality ratio! The building is located on Carrera 7 so very useful for getting buses south to the city center or heading north. The windows' glass is thick so we do not hear traffic to much as I was worried about. The staff is very friendly and willing to help anytime!!!

Construction, slow wifi and Freezing rooms!
This hotel has a lot of potential, but it was undergoing remodeling when I stayed there -- construction dust made everything dirty, and the restaurant was closed. The worse part was that the rooms are FREEZING! I had to sleep in my jacket and hat, thick socks, etc. Bogota is chilly, and this hotel had no climate control at all. The wifi was also very slow and intermittent -- while trying to upload a work project online, the internet speed was only 8kb/second (usually 250-325/kb/second in most hotels). They keep the front door locked, so it's kinda a pain to have to wait for them to open it all the time (once got stuck outside in the rain!) The front desk staff was nice, but there were too many other things wrong with this hotel that I won't ever book a room there again.
