Comfortable room with a big bed and great ac, which is much needed as the weather can get extremely hot there. The reception team was very friendly which is always a bonus. This place is also a good distance from the main square.

“Great place to stay”
Location is excellent close to the center of town, transport, shops etc. Room very large and airy with opening windows. Bathroom clean, cold water shower was refreshing. Room had two fans which were very good, but we only needed occasionally. Staff very nice and helpful even with our lack of Spanish. They also found us a driver to take us to the desert for a good price as we didn't want a tour. Wifi was good.

We had a spacious room, and the cold shower was welcome. There were 2 fans in the room, no ac sadly. The staff helped us out to organize a visit at the desert. They also waited for us quite late for our check-in

Central location with bars, shops, and restaurants on the doorstep. Easy access to swim in Magdalena River or cross it on one of the ferries. Easy walking distance to buses to Villavieja or hail one from the door. Palaeontology Museum very close. Super easy access to Tatacoa Desert. Excellent value for money.

“Perfect when visiting the Tatacoa Desert”
The location is perfect for visiting the Tatacoa Desert, the family that owns this place is very nice and always ready to help. The room has airconditioning and a fan, and the bed was okay. They also offer a tour to the Tatacoa, and while a little expensive, it was a very good tour and I would highly recommend it (if you speak at least a little Spanish). They also offer breakfast before heading to the Desert.
