Cartagena Hotel ALMIRANTE
Our bathroom had black mold in the corners, we reached out to the front desk and the cleaning person informed us that they have other complaints about the person assigned to that area. The faucet in the bathroom sink needed cleaning of the filter so we could get good water pressure but they couldn’t figure it out. We had a water leak and condensation from an air vent in the room. We requested a price adjustment they offered us a different room, but not available until two nights before the end of our trip, my elderly mother didn’t want to pack and unpack again. I tried to talk to a manager but all I could get is a customer representative unable to do anything to solve the problem or adjust the price, they offered us free dinner which we politely declined. Cartagena was overall underwhelming and the stay at ALMIRANTE is what we enjoyed the least.

Not really a 5 star hotel. Area around the hotel could use more security. More police. Don’t bother going to the beach- you’ll be swarmed by every local there trying to make a quick buck. I say to everyone order Ubers not yellow cabs. And have them pull right into the hotels front lobby. The food is pretty mid. Friendly staff at least. Attentive. Don’t think I’ll stay here again.

I requested the upgrade! They said they didn’t have a better room. Then the room i was getting was connected to another and I didn’t want. Then, i was offered another room better but I was supposed to pay extra. And I reminded them I have the right to an upgrade. The lady left to talk to someone and finally came and told me I was getting the upgraded because they checked my status with Expedia. The room was bigger but I requested an iron and ironing board and they didn’t have one. I got the iron. The breakfast was terrible food.
