M32***23:“[Scenery] Reserva Natural Sanguare is larger than Zoológico de Barranquilla, but it also has its own special features. It has a museum, which is small but more exquisite!
[Fun] You can spend a whole day watching the explanation”
M32***23:“[Scenery] I wandered to Parque Sagrado Corazón early in the morning on the weekend and caught up with the art exhibition?! Magical, hahaha, I saw the art for free, it was great, sunny blue sky and oil paintings, beautiful!
[Fun] Recommended to come and see, outdoor tourist destination!”
Angel M. D’ la Rosa:“Very nice hotel, I rely on taxis to avoid driving in Barranquilla, driving is a different ballgame there. I had a hard time getting a cab to pick me up whenever I needed one, the waiting were too long.”
Guest User:“The check in process was quick. We were looking forward to staying here as we just came in from Cartagena staying with Movich and It was wonderful. Unfortunately, the Movich in Barranquilla is tired. We walked up to our room and the hallway carpets were filthy. We booked a suite and it was a bunker. It had one small tiny window, which Looked like it had not been cleaned in years. The furniture in the room was worn. Dead plants and broken floor tiles. When you looked out the window, you saw no view and it looked into rusty old Air-conditioning units. We did walk downstairs and refuse the room. I will say I felt like the hotel handled the situation. They gave us a higher floor suite the manager and two additional staff walked to the first room and the second room and acknowledged that needed to be clean better. They comped a dinner. Over the next couple of days you saw an effort to clean the floors because we could hear them vacuuming early in the mornings in the hallways. I will say that this hotels food was excellent. It was the best that we had in our 14 day stay in the country.”
Guest User:“The hotel was immaculate, the staff were very attentive to every request , with abundant politeness, breakfast was a delight again amazing staff”
Rodrigo:“A very good and convenient location with unstandingly friendly and helpful staff. The room, however, is just what you need as even toilet paper has to be asked for at the reception. I’d say you get what you pay for.”
Guest User:“Check in was super slow, just 1 person at reception made checking in a big waste of time. The room was ok, a bit dated already. The water from the shower took ages to be hot and sometimes it didnt even went very hot. Breakfast was ok, not Amazing but had most of what youd expect although the restaurant itself had zero ambience, same as the lobby, not a nice place. big plain simple areas. Nothing alusive to the country.. or the city or the culture.. sad place. Bed was good and pillows also. Mini bar was well stuffed.”
Guest User:“I stayed two nights for Carnaval! The location is great but don’t forget to bring earplugs if you want to sleep well. Breakfast in the morning was fine and the pool was nice and relaxing.”
