Authentic Columbia
Situated just outside the pristine touristic area, this hotel is ideal for visitors who want an authentic Columbian experience. Located in downtown Medellin, the hotel is still within easy reach of all the major sights in the city. You can also take a short walk to the San Antonio metro station, which will take you anywhere in town. The hotel is located in a busy and popular area, mainly occupied by locals, so you can find some excellent authentic dining options nearby. There is also a shopping centre not too far away for convenience.

Stay Safe
The local neighbourhood can be less appealing at first, as it is not as neat and landscaped as the touristic parts of town. Guests were a bit concerned about safety, but no one reported having any trouble. However, it is wise to exercise simple street smarts at all times.
