Camellia United States of America

The hostel is in a perfect location in the historic district of Cartagena with two rooftops (both with pools) to choose from. The free yoga classes were also a delight, as well as the library/work space and the reception atrium. It's beautiful, the staff are friendly and helpful, and it's a popular place to be. Watching the birds flying along the coast from the rooftop in the early morning was particularly memorable.

Jennifer China

The Standard room is nice, the decoration around the room and the building is cool. The rooftops are amazing and we can see a perfect sunset, the staff from the bar is friendly. It is a nice place and I probably return.

Fabrício Brazil

Bergen Jamaica

great location, friendly staff, reliable WiFi. they win my approval by not enforcing vaccine certificates. I will support and promote any business that does not enforce the tyrannical and discriminatory vaccine certificates.
