“Everything appears brand new; from the AC to the showers and beds, it's notably well-maintained; while a bit removed from the historic center, a short ride via the inDrive app reveals another appealing side of Cartagena. The owner and staff are commendable, and with supermarkets and local spots nearby, it offers a distinct and valuable experience. It's a great value.”
