My room was clean and the staff is extremely professional and very kind. The pool is rather small but the water was acceptable. Could have been better. I had a petite room. Queen size comfortable bed but no window. Air conditioning is very good. Yhorman is a great host. He is extremely knowledgeable of the area and about tourist activities to do. You’re in the heart of the nightlife and the Getsemani historical district.

The interior of the hotel from the moment we walked in is truly spectacular. Very well located. We were on the third floor room 302. A large room with a huge shower room and a large bathroom. The lighting was incredible. Adjusting shower temperature a little challenging, but you’ll figure it out. Secure. Service excellent. It is indeed a small boutique hotel. Highly recommended.

Susan

Liked: Amenities
Disliked: Cleanliness
Positives: Strong airconditioning; friendly staff; decent breakfast, included; good location Negatives: The sleeping room was not clean and a bit run down (eg. the lampshades were stained/discolored and the airconditioning unit seemed to have grim on it). We pointed out to the staff that the floors had obviously not been cleaned and they told us they would clean them, which they did, but not well at all. There was dirt and hair behind one of the bathroom doors from the time we arrive through our 3 night stay despite daily housekeeping. If cleanliness is a priority for you, I would not recommend staying at Hotel Monaguillo de Getsemani.

This hotel was a great choice for our first visit to Cartagena, Colombia. It's perfectly located in the heart of the Getsemani neighborhood, with tons of restaurants, shops, and nightlife within a short walking distance. The staff were all very welcoming and friendly. The hotel was very clean and the food was good. Checking in and out was smooth. The hotel has free Wi-Fi, a swimming pool and jacuzzi on the rooftop. Basically it looks like the pictures on their website. I would highly recommend this hotel and I'll be returning for my next trip to Colombia.

Cute boutique hotel

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay here. I arrived about an hour before check-in, and went across the street to grab a bite to eat. Charming facility, and very friendly and helpful service. Although the rooms were on the smaller side, they were nonetheless well-maintained. A highlight of the day was the breakfast served Near the rooftop pool. Always delicious and always served with a smile. I would come back again.

The hotel is beautiful, clean and beds are comfortable. The staffs are very respectful. Breakfast is good. The place is centrally located and walking distance to everything. My only problem is their generator malfunctioned during the power outages on our last day. We don’t have water and power for a while so we have to go to another hotel to use their facility. Monthly generator maintenance should be done to avoid this inconvenience in the future.

I would stay again in this property in they changed their check-in process and speed. They couldn't find a stamp on my passport and kept me waiting for hours. There was no clarity on which documents they needed, and although I spoke to the manager who said that it was solved, the girl from the front desk kept asking me for more and. ore documents via whatsapp. I've stayed at hundreds of hotels in Colombia and Cartagena and this had never happened to me before. They could have air conditioning in the lobby or at least better ventilation. It was my first time staying at the hotel and chose it due to the closeness to the port. Upon arrival I felt that I had made a mistake because the "lobby" is dark and hot, but the room was very clean, spacious and with good AC. In the morning the water pump of the hotel was not working and I couldn't take a shower, but the hotel acted promptly and gave me a room to shower in another of their hotels which was just one block away.
