“Great location”
The location was perfect, right in the heart of Minca (it's not a very big town) and the views from the shared terrace were amazing! We loved watching the birds from here. The owner was lovely and made us breakfast every morning which was great. It would have been useful to have some information inside the room about this sort of thing as it was at the front desk only and I couldn't remember the timings for breakfast. Air con worked well.

“Better look for another place for the same price”
There is only one good thing in this hotel and that is the lady who works there, Jeini. She was always very kind to us, she is a lovely person and we thank her very much for her friendliness.

“Too expensive. Not great facilities except the WiFi. Feomt desk staff helpful.”
Mai who works there was very helpful in assisting me to rearrange my booking, get my cases to my room, look a different cheaper options for an ongoing stay - thank you. WiFi was the best I’ve had in Colombia.

“Great Location in Minca”
The staff, particularly the female co-owner who's name I've sadly forgotten, are super friendly, accommodating and funny. The place has an amazing balcony/roof terrace with very comfortable hammocks overlooking a river, although the view is partially obscured by a tree; the tree is full of birds! Great spot place to sit, watch and relax. The location is perfect, right in the middle of Minca, but no so loud.
