Cartagena Vacations from $817

All great. One of those rare places that's even better than you expected from the pictures.

Rooms are clean. Overall, facilities are clean most of the time. Restaurant staff are slow. They are OK at first when you are seated; after that, you do not see them for 15min. No difference if you are at the buffet or restaurant. They should close their dinner restaurants. They are no better than their buffet-style one. The buffet one is even better. Their Asian one is just wasting the food. Mexican and Italian are still buffet-style and not that Italian or Mexican. Steakhouse requires reservations, but it is nothing special. Pools are good. I know the beach is not a hotel property, but it would be nice if they tried to clean it more often just to keep their visitors happy. Poolside bartenders are not trained very well. Mostly crashed iced drinks. Water is the best. It is clean and warm.

I had initial concerns about booking at this “container” hotel, but was completely blown away how much I liked my room & the facilities. As well, my receptionist MJ was awesome and a very enthusiastic & knowledgeable gal! Highly recommend this, I will use this hotel for all my future trips here! Pura Vida for sure!
