5/5
Nicest Hotel on the famous "La 70" strip. Rooms are very modern and comfortable with good internet for around $40 per night when I was there in 2023. There's a nice bar downstairs and complimentary breakfast. Yes, this area is noisy due to the all night lively location with all its clubs and restaurants...that is La 70. If you need quiet, stay in a different area, perhaps Envigado

Room was great, only thing you have no safe, no hangars. Besides that location is great, service is great. Breakfast was to cheap, small portions. Service was great. Awesome views.
