DO NOT STAY HERE - NOISY
I had Room 206, the lowest room in the hotel on the corner of the building. It overlooked the pool and breakfast room. They played loud music in the pool from 8am to 8pm all day. They also played music from the breakfast room. This was a very uncomfortable stay. They refused to switch rooms or give a refund. There was also a banquet room nearby which was not used, but also could have provided noise too. The room was also dated. The corner room also absorbed all the noise at night from the street. Probably the worst hotel experience that I ever had. Do not stay here. Try another hotel or upgrade to another one in Barranquilla.

25 COP ($6 USD) for taxi from BAQ to hotel. Cabbies vary, but you can haggle. Hotel Staff was great. Karen and Gabriella, in the dining room are excellent, always attentive and genial. Pool closed for maintenance on Mondays, closes daily at 7:50.PM; most inconvenient. Steam room and dry sauna were out of order. Room was without hot water for 2 days. I told the front desk, the 3rd morning and they turned it on, before 10AM. Bathroom was spacious, shower was large and very good water pressure. Toilet takes work to flush, regardless of contents; very low pressure. Only two towels, no face or hand cloths. Soap and shampoo provided. In room fridge works well, after you plug it in. No currency exchange, in hotel. Need to walk out, take a right and if the one a few doors down is closed, walk another few blocks and there are several, on the opposite corner. Free Breakfast varies by day and was very good. Hamburgers are very good. Dinner was excellent! Had some shrimp in a sauce combo. Beer and scotch at very good prices! Yes, I would return here.

Book if you want to be HOMELESS FOR DAY OR MORE!
They did not honor hour guaranteed reservation and tried charging our card for the whole amount instead of pay at hotel. Then when we arrived 1 hour before checkin they already gave out room. No apologies, no help finding an alternative. I WAS HOMELESS IN A FOREIGN COUNTRY!

This hotel I believe was a Wyndham hotel. I can’t believe Wyndham would allow their name to be on this hotel. My experience with Wyndham has always been that of classy elegant hotels. This hotel was run down outdated with poor equipment and unkept

The staff was friendly but if my wife didn’t speak Spanish the check in and check out would have been a lot more difficult. I am most grateful for the special request of flowers and wine that the staff had waiting in the room. On a side note, the AC in our first room did not work properly and as a result we were moved to a different location. All in all, the stay was comfortable but didn’t make a lasting impression.

Had to change room 2 times AC not working. Same happened to the family members that had 2 other rooms. Our room had termites and spiders. Hot water was so hot i burned myself. Next day did not make it to breakfast on time so paid a la cart and the 7 of us were given bread that was old and green. For sure we will mever stay there again. The city has nicer hotels. We only stayed there because went to a wedding in their ballroom the night we were there.

I like the location, the personnel took us even when they did not find the reservation but I a not sure why they did no have it if I had my Expedia confirmation #. They worked around it and put us in a room anyway. I think the place is good but probably need a little bit more maintenance. I did not stay too long in there since it was a quick trip

Will return to the same hotel soon.
I got sick for some unknown reason and the manager had a dr come to my room to check on my and my friend's daughter conditions. The dr not only gave us what to buy at the pharmacy, she also told us what to eat and drick for a few days. We both got better to continue our second part of the trip. Also very proactive to fix things in the room.
