Great value. Walking distance to main attractions. Cool little vibe. Free breakfast. AC and fridge in rooms. And a nice, small outdoor pool. I initially booked for one night, was lazy the next day so i just stayed. For $20, its hard to beat the value

The hotel is a rejuvenated home. I was told that it was a house built during colonial times. Off course it shows the age, however, the service was very good. The price was very affordable. I recommend it anyone who is on a budget.

The hotel and service were good enough. Arriving at night it is in a bit of a dodgy looking area. In the daytime it is fine. A fairly plain fan room for the price. But it did the job for a one night transit.

Not a Great Value; Cash Required for Discount Rate
CAUTION: This hotel may require you to pay in cash. Nothing was said on hotels.com about cash being required, and I had to give my credit card information to save the reservation. When I got here to pay, they would only accept cash for the amount I owed or would only accept the use of my credit card by requiring me to pay 33% more "because mine was a promotional rate." (NOTE: It's a bigger problem than you might think if you have not traveled in Colombia before. Getting cash here is expensive. ATMs in the country limit the amount you can withdraw per transaction with many allowing no more than the equivalent of $100-125 and the maximum being a bank that allows the equivalent of $250 as a withdrawal. They charge large fees for those withdrawals—typically $3-5 each! You will read online about some banks with no fees, but that seems to have changed with them all joining in on the game of charging extravagant amounts for rather small withdrawals.) Otherwise, it is a typical backpacker place, but with private rooms. Hot, humid rooms unless you pay extra for a/c, decent breakfast, hammocks, small pool. Service, other than requiring cash, was outstanding. Very friendly, helpful people. Not really a good value hotel: I stayed my first two nights at a brand new place one street over with a/c, bkft, great bed, etc., for 109,000 COP (also booked from hotels.com), and the "regular" rate for this place WITHOUT a/c and being rather old with drab rooms was 80,000 COP!

Good location, quiet and safe.
This hotel is a very good price-comfort combination and the staff is VERY helpful and friendly. Breakfast is nice and plenty. There are cooled drinks at the reception which you can take (pay later) - they are not expensive. There is a laundry service per kg - also very reasonably priced. The hotel is perfectly located. Just fine for the local beach, very close to the best restaurants, bars and clubs and just one road (carrera 5) for local buses to anywhere. I really liked Taganga - 1.400 COP. Beware of taxi drivers on rush hours - they may not want to take you to the airport or the main bus terminal.

Popular hotel for a short stay
The hotel has 'character'. It is not the most modern or on a particularly nice street but it is two blocks from the sea and three blocks from where the restaurants are. And very good value.
