This is a quaint European style hotel with excellent potential. The staff is excellent and service is good. They will do all to please you. A little renovation & few additions and you have a true winner. The one downfall is the neighborhood. You feel completely safe in this hotel but I would not venture out on foot in this area, especially at night. Food is above par. I will certainly return again.

Ok for
I booked 2 weeks here and it was disappointing that they put me in a room downstairs with heavy traffic noise throughout the day. It was so bad I could not even sit peacefully in my room for a few minutes. They did accommodate me to a quieter room after pointing this issue out. I ate there once and that was it because the food is terrible and overpriced for what you get. They need a new cook. Also, the woman that works the bar/counter and serves food has a really bad attitude and gives you cold looks and ignores you when you ask for something. Also, the rooms have no windows and even though there is a fan, it gets very stuffy and the fan is loud. On the plus, the rooms are cleaned everyday, the view is nice, and some staff are also kind.

Scary neighborhood
The guesthouse is located in the worst neighborhood in all of Medellin. Driving up to the location, I saw drug users on the street and several homeless. The cab driver warned me about the area too. The staff was friendly and told me that as long as I don't walk in the area and get my can driver to wait till I entered the gate, I should be okay. Everyone I met in town told me to not to stay in that area so I moved to another hotel. The room itself is small, the shower only has cold water and The towels and sheets are really uncomfortable. There was even a leak in my ceiling in my room where water dripped. Overall, don't stay in this area!

Amazing Place for the Peso!
LOVE this hotel! I stay here EVERY time I come to Medellin. You just can't beat the value of this hotel and I have been all over Colombia. The staff are the friendliest you will meet. The quaint little bar and restaurant they have there is both delicious and affordable...and the atmosphere is very romantic. The rooms are very comfortable and spacious. It will not just meet but exceed your expectations. That's why I keep coming back!

This hotel is one of the best places I've stayed, anywhere. The staff is just amazing, I felt like family the entire time I was at the hotel. I stayed here for about a month while on an extended visit to Colombia. The hotel has a 24-hour restaurant, but it feels more like a family dining room. The staff frequently went out of their way to prepare meals for my taste, creating unique dishes just for me. The rooms are huge and quiet. There is even a rooftop terrace to relax and enjoy a meal or beverage. And the WiFi is great. Exceptional!!

Our room was next to the registration area and separated only by windows. Guests talking and milling around did not make for quiet nights. Two other things stood out. There was the stench of mildew, probably from mold in the bathroom tile area. The other was there was no air conditioner, although there was a strong fan in the room that created a uncomfortable draft on to the bed. Fans are not air conditioners, no matter how good. On the good side the hotel staff were pleasant and helpful and there was a kind of congeniality felt among guests. The view on the roof was thrilling. The price was also modest. Still, we found the room short when compared to its claim of being the best deal in Medellin according to Travel Advisers. The location, while close to the metro, was not ideal in terms of neighbourhoods. Overall, love the effort of the staff, including good healthy food, but would not stay there again.
