Ehhh couldve been better
The room was way smaller than expected. The shower always flooded onto the tiny bathroom floor which left it soaked on a daily basis. In order to get new towels you had to call for them. Laundry service was an additional charge that they dont tell you upfront.

Too much hassle
The stay here was very disappointing. We arrived to find the hotel had no record of our booking. The receptionist just pointed at some chairs and turned to serve somebody else. Eventually a manager (I think) came.to help and found the booking. We were given the key to our room and sent on our way. After being in the room for 30 minutes we were called and told we had to change rooms. The receptionist had given us the wrong key. We moved to a much smaller room. Later in the evening we realised there was no top sheet or blanket on our bed so I had to request one. The next day our room was cleaned and towels were taken but only 1 returned. Our key card also stopped working. So day two I had to request a towel, toilet paper and the key to be reset. I mentioned this to the receptionist before we left for the day and on return it was still not there. The room wasn't cleaned for the remainder of the stay. The room has a ceiling fan which is very very noisy and the shower floods as the door doesn't properly close. Overall the stay was a whole lot of hassle without even having a particularly good location. There are other hotels on this road that are better. Try Hotel Central Plaza. Same place, similar price, much better service. The whole experience would have been made much better if the receptionist was actually polite.

Not professional service
During the check in the receptionist didn't explained anything about the room. She was just asking about a iva payment that I perfectly new that I don't have to pay! Foreigner doesn't have to pay any kind of iva. I had to explained that to her and of course she knew! She didn't explained that I had to leave the room keys at the reception if I wanted the room clean. I had to ask her about everything like WiFi keys. Check out time. She was not professional at all.When the next day I was asking for clean toals they took around 30 min to bring it. Very slow service!

El hotel Monarca es nivel dos estrellas en México, no tomo en cuenta el tamaño de la habitación pero si la comodidad de sus camas, que no cuenta con aire acondicionado en una ciudad cálida, y que está en una zona nada turística. Salir a caminar por la noche NO es opción en Itagüi y tampoco hay mucho para desayunar y explorar, por seguridad la gente te dice que no es recomendable. Para los turistas que llegamos por primera vez a Medellin, Colombia no es una opción estár a dos cuadras de una zona de prostitución. Se debe considerar todo esto para ofrecer mejores experiencias para quienes visitamos la ciudad por turismo.

Buen servicio con cucarachas incluidas
Las personas que trabajan allí son muy amables y tratan de hacer todo lo posible por ayudar, sin embargo, hay cucarachas de todos los tamaños y todos los días aunque hagan aseo, aparecen en los baños, en los cuartos, en las camas y se esconden en la ropa. Este alejamiento es un Motel 100%, se ven llegar a parejas y tríos en la noche y se oye la intimidad de quienes se hospedan. Estuve con mi hijo de 9 años y fue bastante incómodo el tema de los insectos y los ruidos y gritos. Los trabajadores son demasiado amables, las condiciones del sitio son malas en general.

El hotel en general es bueno, la alimentación es buena, el servicio administrativo y de aseo es bueno, pero no se recomienda para hospedarse con niños, debido a que a dos cuadras se encuentra el sector de prostitución, entonces se ven ingresando parejas constantemente al hotel.

No es un hotel es un motel para que parejas pasen el rato. Fuimos con un grupo de niños y se vio y escucho todo tipo de espectáculos propios de esos lugares. Esta en una zona de prostitución. Terrible. No lo recomiendo para familias.

El hotel es agradable, el personal del hotel y el restaurante son muy atentos y serviciales. La habitación era muy pequeña y tuvimos que pedir un cambio por una habitación más grande (la cual no vi en las opciones de la página), esta ubicado en una buena zona para hacer compras. Muchas personas lo utilizan como hotel de paso lo cual fue incómodo para mi acompañante

perturbaciones de la paz en la noche
en realidad fue mala experiencia, la primera noche los ruidos de las otras habitaciones no dejaron dormir, pero la segunda noche fue peor. a las 2 am, una mujer en aparente estado de intoxicación (drogas/licor/ambos) empezó a deambular por el corredor gritando a su pareja que no le pegara mas. en el hotel trataron de calmar a la pareja pero no llamaron a la policía aun habiendo la posibilidad que la pareja la hubiese golpeado. esta situación se prolongo hasta las 4 am, ya que la mujer siguió llorando y gritando y suplicando que no le hicieran daño. por fin sacaron a la mujer que decidio irse con ayuda del personal del hotel. esto ocurrio en la madrugada del 1 de nov del 2018.
