Ambience good and cleaning good. Staff try to be helpful but do not speak English which makes life difficult. Hotel faces onto a busy road and opposite are car and tyre servicing buildings. Road is very noisy and at corner there is a semi open air very loud disco until early hours. Room is smart but not large. Shower was cold each day and needed to be fixed by a mechanic. Often water was cool again after 1 hour. Pool is smart but just four sun loungers. Breakfast is standard juice, coffee, fruit, eggs, patacones and chorizo. All food was very dry. Not excellent as given by other guests. The welcome drink is a waste of time. Coffee and iced water available in reception. very disappointing overall.
Una servicio impecable desde que llegas te reciben cálidamente, en un ambiente elegante, la comida es excepcional! Habitaciones cómodas y las áreas comunes limpias/ it was a very impeccable service, upon you arrive at the hotel you are able to feel comfortable and homie, the customer service is exceptional, the rooms are great clean and spacious, the amenities areas are always clean, main dishes are great highly recommended the picada del sol ( fried pork, fried plantains!

After staying more than a week in mediocre hotels as a tourist this Ibis is a whole relief. Back to European standards with a modern designed hotel and modern rooms, buffet breakfast, so all you can eat, instead of the tiny breakfast at most B&B's. Location close to a modern big mall. Standard room is ok with a good bathroom, bed a bit too hard and the biggest downside you can't open a window, which is noticeable in the hallways as well, a particular smell as there is never fresh air coming in. Free indoor parking available, good wifi.
The hotel is located a couple of block from a very nice shopping center with plenty of restaurants and shops. The hotel is very nice as you would expect a HGI to be. I would say it is even nicer than the same hotel brand in the US. The price was very reasonable. The hotel staff was very professional and courteous. The breakfast was very good. You can order eggs any style you like. It offers some items from the typical food from the region although that would be the one aspect I would say the hotel could increase its wow factor. I definitely would recommend this hotel and would return when I travel to Barranquilla.
I really enjoyed my stay at this hotel. It is located in a good area where you can walk freely through the nearby neighborhood and feel safe. Also, you can find many coffee shops, restaurants, and place to shop in the area. I would like to thank Carmen D for taking the time to help me correct some things with my Rewards membership. I was very impressed by the quick time it took to update my Rewards account since it had been over a month from the time I had stayed in the hotel.
Saturday September 16 - Receptionist was extremely rude questioning why I was in the country and my documentation. I asked about my reservation, my family member needed a place to stay for two nights. Since one of my initial reservations was two queen beds I asked if that was easier or just adding the room. My reservation was for 1 person, with a king sized bed. The receptionist said I had to pay in full at once for my 1 person, with a king sized bed room. Come to find she charged me an additional $500 from the original reservation. I was stuck paying for a double room for 8 nights at $500 more than any reservation I already had. When I questioned the cost, that they had already charged to my accounts, I was told I needed to contact the third party company I had booked through or could leave but there are no refunds. Last year when I visited this hotel we were treated with kindness and respect, which is why I chose to return. This time I was treated like a criminal. Once to our room, there was a lizard in the room!!! Running around!!! Extremely frustrated and scared, I returned to the reception to share my findings for them to roll their eyes and change my room. They said lizards are native to the land and very common. At dinner - The waiter dropped waters on my aunt, then forgot my other aunts meal, then the manager came to argue about tips because my mom wanted to confirm the tip went to our waiter after over hearing the manager shout at the employee. The manager said he gets his cuts and the tips are distributed through the entire staff whether she likes it or not. Friday September 22 - During my breakfast I was not acknowledged by any employees. As I almost finished my meal..There were cockroaches crawling around the tables .. At the end of the night, as I arrived to the hotel room, I asked for toiletries as the given quantities are minimal and so with this heat I find myself showering at least twice/day - Then the attendant asked why I was using so many toiletries. September 22 - I sent 3 clothing items to the laundry - My bodysuit (blouse) was ruined. It was returned with yellow bleach stains all over the straps. This is absolutely the worst experience I’ve ever experienced at any hotel in my entire life.
