Mosquitos
Although I had to have the room sprayed for mosquitos and leave the room while the poison took effect, I still was bitten by mosquitos. I hate mosquitos so I am glad I only stayed one night.

Nice place to stay in Santa Marta
The staff was very helpful and polite, it was so nice to be welcomed by them after a long day of travel. They were able to answer all of my questions and helped me set up a cab for an early flight. The building itself is beautiful and the rooftop deck is a nice reprieve from the noisy city streets below. However, the room was not as clean as it might have been, there was a dead cockroach in one corner, and the linens had spots on them. I also found the mattress to be somewhat uncomfortable. Overall it was a pleasant stay but I would have liked the room to be cleaner and more well-kept.

Front desk staff is amazing. Always available and pleased to help. The swimming pool on the rooftop although very small is really good and has nice views over the city and the cathedral. The hotel is really well located right beside the main shopping and pedestrian street. The room are well appointed and the A/C works very well. The room It has a mini bar. The only thing to improve is perhaps to provide more light in the bathroom as it feels extremely dark (there is only one spotlight in the ceiling). Overall is a great Hotel and with extremely attentive and pleasant staff in one of the best locations in the city.

Loved the Barcelona Suite
We stayed in the Barcelona suite for 3 nights as a base for visiting Minca and Tayrona. The room is massive and really nicely decorated, with 2 balconies off the bedroom and 1 off the sitting area. The hotel is only a block away from the main strip of restaurants, bars etc, which meant we could walk to these without feeling unsafe. The hotel itself has a security gate and felt very safe. It has a cute rooftop area with very small pool - we didn’t really use this much as we tended to be out all day. The room is well equipped including really good air con which was welcomed as this was our first stop on the Carribean coast! The only drawbacks were the very loud pigeons on the balcony early morning (take ear plugs) and the curtains were not black out (take eye mask!) The breakfast was made to order rather than buffet and had a good variety, but was sometimes a little slow - something to bear in mind if you’re heading out on a day trip and are pressed for time. The staff however were really friendly, and were helpful in organising our onward travel to Cartagena.
