My stay at this boutique hotel was truly enchanting. The ambiance created in the room, with candles, fresh roses, and calming music made a lovely first impression. The staff went above and beyond to ensure my experience was memorable, assisting with reservations and little crises along the way. The location was unbeatable, right in the heart of the city. However, while the breakfast was quite good, it could use a bit more variety to be perfect.

I had a lovely stay at this boutique hotel. The rooms were beautifully designed with lovely linens, and the small touches like lavender sprigs on the pillows added a nice charm. The rooftop pool was a highlight, perfect for relaxing. However, the common areas not being air-conditioned might be a bit uncomfortable during hot days. Overall, it's a great experience with some room for improvement.

I recently stayed at this boutique hotel, and I was absolutely thrilled with the experience. The rooms were stunning and exuded charm, making my stay feel glamorous. The location is fantastic, right in the heart of the historic area of Cartagena, which made exploring so convenient. The dining on the rooftop offered delicious options, although I had to miss a meal due to being unwell. A couple of downsides were a slow room service and a limited breakfast timing, but overall, I found it to be great value for money.

I had a lovely stay at this boutique hotel, which features only six rooms, making it feel intimate and spacious. The rooms are big and neat, though my window faced the street, which resulted in some noise. The service was excellent, with the owners going out of their way to ensure I felt comfortable and welcomed. However, the location was particularly busy, which might not be ideal for everyone.

My stay at this boutique hotel was memorable, thanks to the beautiful décor and the attention to detail. The clean and comfortable rooms exceeded my expectations, although the steep stair access to the top unit might not be ideal for everyone. The service was warm and welcoming, offering a personal touch that made me feel at home. On the other hand, while the location in the heart of the old city is fantastic, I found the dining options limited. Overall, it’s a cozy spot with a few quirks.
