to get started.

The staff stands out as a highlight for me. They were professional, very helpful, and friendly from the top down. If my wife and I return to Medellin, we would stay El Porton de San Jaoquin without question.

Leyda, Panama

The staff is amazing. Diego is the best. My handicapped 85-year-old grandmother needed a lot of help getting to and from the restaurant to eat breakfast and Diego was always there to lend a helping hand. Gracias Diego.

Maria, United States of America

Everything was as described. Rooms were very clean, neat, and had all the amenities you’d need. Excellent place to stay.

Biglew404, United States of America

Extremely clean ! Staff friendly and Diego is an asset of the hotel.

Vivianiz, Puerto Rico

The neighborhood was residential but close to the metro and close to a street with many restaurants. I liked the fact that the air conditioning did't work that well, so that it didn't get too cold. It had everything. An iron and ironing board, a safe and a small refrigerator. There is a restaurant in the hotel and the hotel arranged tours and spoke in excellent English.

Sherye, United States of America

Brand new facility. Staff great. Location quiet but close to busy avenues and tren within walking distance. Nice restaurant in property.

James, Puerto Rico

The staff were incredibly helpful, friendly, truly went above and beyond. Especially the bell boy (who spoke English), the gentleman at breakfast brightened our morning with his smiling face - everyone helps you, even carrying your tray to the table, hailing cabs etc. The Breakfast was good, a changing selection of items, bread, fruit, Colombian food, eggs made to your liking. The Hotel is kept sparkling clean. Rooms are fairly basic but very clean and comfortable (amazing for a 3 star) and extremely good value for the cost.

Tracey, Australia

Staff was super good!! Specially, Mónica and Walter treat us with excellence and were very caring and attentive. The food in their restaurant was also very good.

Lady, Puerto Rico

Nice area away from the party tourists of Poblado, super friendly staff, nice room, good breakfast

Perhaps a small table chair would have been more useful the couch.

Only had one light for reading in bed, on one of the two side tables next to the bed. We had no glasses in the room. I called for two to be sent up. They never came.
Staff were great! Camillo at check in was so friendly. He invited us to sit on the couches and have coffee while other guests checked in. The hotel is immaculately clean. It looks very new. The area is quiet and two blocks away are many restaurants and bars. The room were small, very modern. Bed was firm but comfortable. Breakfast was buffet, with eggs, meat, cheese, various breads, and coffee.

“Good value”
- • Leisure trip

- • Stayed 3 nights
It was really hard to adjust the shower water temperature to a decent temperature. It was either too hot or too cold. While there were many beds, there was not enough table space (barely any). They need another table in there to place things on and the sink is small so we couldn't leave many toiletries there. We needed more than beds. We ended up having to use the sofa in the room as a table.
Staff was great. Located about 2 blocks from a main street with many restaurants. Also, easy walk from metro. Buffet breakfast on weekends. The room has 4 beds in it. One for each family member--I've never seen this before but we all had our own space. They even knocked on our door one night to give the kids ice cream.

The hotel was in a good location a short walk from one of the main streets in Medellin. The double room we had was not the largest, but it was comfortable and clean. The staff were all very friendly and could not do enough for one. The only drawback was that check-in took an overly long time.
