Both Wi-Fi and water pressure were weak
When we arrived to check-in an hour later, due to flight delay, we were greeted with the cleaning staff still cleaning! They were lovely but they did not finish until an hour later (you heard that right we got there late and they were still cleaning!) The Wi-Fi was very very limited, which, of course, disrupted our ability to communicate with the owner of the property. This created annoyance and discomfort. Due to the water temperature & pressure being unfavorable we rate this experience a 3 out of 5.

You get what you pay for!
It has Continuous bad odor of sewer throughout apt. The smell would come out of the walls. The. toikets did not flush well, we had to continuously use large galloons of water to pour in toilet tank to flush. The Sink in master bedroom had bugs and bad odor come out of pipe. First day at apt water came out all dirty and smelled horrible. Only 1 bath towel was given to each of us to use for a 8 night stay. Bed only had 1 thin flat sheet to sleep, didn’t sleep well cause if I turned air conditioning it would be too cold and if I raised it or turned off it would be yoo hot. They left no cleaning liquids to clean bathroom and mop and wipe counters down. Living room Furniture has termites and every day we would find them all over their white floor. The view wasn’t spectacular because the beach waters are contaminated with petroleum and sewer from septic system that the coty drains. We were told at last minute a fee of $1.50 US a person. would be charged to wear bracelet during our stay, but was charged like $2.50 a person. I dont mind having paid it, but the inconsistency is what I did not appreciate. One of the tenants in building owned 2 wolf dogs that kept howling and kept us up 2 nights. When you walk to front of building you get hounded by natives to buy. And the smell in the air was horrific. I wore my face mask entire stay. Elevators were super slow. It’s definitely not at all how it looks in pictures illustrated. Not a place I would stay at, but one gets what they pay for. And I would not recommend it. I will say the security guarda were really nice. And the tourist office on site, especially Linda and Jaciel were phenomenal. After this experience I am mote hesitant in staying at an Vrbo. This was my 1st Vrbo experience and I didn’t like it,

Terrible experience
Not at all like the listing, different property. Dirty, broken/dirty blinds, noisy ac units, dirty sinks, no hot water, terrible water pressure, terrible wifi. Dishes and cutlery always looked dirty, electronic equipment in terrible shape. Beds were hard and uncomfortable despite being listed as luxurious. Bathroom in master bedroom smelled bad constantly. Advised my contact and never heard from her again despite attempts to get answers. 3 days after I arrived someone called saying they were fixing the water pressure and hot water and they also came into the apartment. Had hot water that one day but went back to no hot water. The only other time I heard from the apartment contact was when I was leaving. She answered right away but during my attempts to get answers or to get things fixed she never responded. TERRIBLE APARTMENT, DIRTY, GROSS!!!

My Stay
My check-in was smooth and uneventful compliments of Ismael. Ismael was an absolute gentleman. He always went out of his way to greet me when he saw me, and was very helpful whenever I had any questions. The apartment was very nice, clean, and I received it as described on VRBO. The bedrooms and bathrooms were clean. My bedroom had a balcony and beautiful view of the ocean and I was able to enjoy several beautiful sunsets. The living room also had a balcony. There were good views of the city and ocean throughout the apartment. The only issue I had with the apartment was that there was no A/C in the living room. If there was no ocean breeze blowing through the apartment the living would become very hot. Other than the A/C issue, the apartment was great. Landis, the apartment manager, was great. She was always pleasant and extremely helpful. If I needed extra towels or the apartment cleaned she handled it without a problem. She was a great go to person. Andreina and Yenis, the two lovely ladies that took care of the apartment, were outstanding. They did a great job, but most of all they were always smiling and were a pleasure to talk to. The aforementioned persons definitely made my stay much more enjoyable. My overall stay at this property was very good. Thank you-Muchas Gracias! Until the next time.

Needs updating
We stayed here in April for a week. While the location and neighbourhood was great, we were disappointed with the unit itself. While there is A/C in the bedrooms - there isn't any in the common area - and with a missing window pane in the kitchen - this led to a very steamy stay. The wi-fi conked out after day one - so we were given the password to the neighbouring unit - so access was a bit sketchy. There was definitely no "high quality bedding" or "extra large fluffy" towels!! The bedding and towels have seen better days and desperately need replacing. It would have been nice to have hand towels for the bathroom. The whole unit is in need of renovations and updating - the photos do not show the age of the unit and the wear and tear that needs attention.

Never Pass This Place Up
Staying here was wonderful. The check-in process was painless and the apartment was ready for us. We did arrive early but were able to store our bags for us and the apartment was very clean and orderly when we got there. This rental is not only about the luxury but location. It is in one of the prominent areas of Cartagena. The views are spectacular and the height of the unit offer a fantastic cooling breeze. On the street level are some very good choices for dining, I would highly recommend "La Tropicana" for breakfast. There is also an official tour agency right next to the building, so if you're looking for a last minute tour, go there. The agency offers competitive prices and multi-lingual guides. The hosts are very responsive and accommodating, especially when dealing with our unorthodox travel times. There is always a taxi downstairs for you to take any where in the city at all hours. I plan on returning to Cartagena in a few months, this place will be the first one I look for.

Good location and price
Right by the beach in boca grande. Easy 3 dollar cab to the walled city. Plenty of markets and restaurants near by. Apartment was very clean, has AC in both bedrooms that works great. Washing machine in the apartment works well. Two balconies facing the water. Check in was very easy with the front desk. Apartment quality is fine though some things are cheaply built, but for the cost it’s great.

Good location, space could have been better.
The location was fantastic, close to the beach and a short taxi ride the walled city! The space itself seemed a little outdated along with the building. The apartment was very hot and stuffy, even with the a/c running. The people who worked the front desk of the building had no sense of urgency and weren’t very hospitable. We were charged for wristbands for staying in the apartment, which had zero purpose. We also had several problems with the address provided. Going through customs, they said the address was missing numbers. When that was finally settled, our taxi driver from the airport needed the name of the building, because apparently they go by names and not addresses. The owner should provide all the information needed. El Laguito is the name of the neighborhood, not the building. Inexpensive, average stay.
