Here’s a clearer and more polished version of your review: My experience at this hotel was disappointing. Upon arrival, I had arranged transportation through the hotel, which was supposed to cost $30. However, the driver who picked me up charged me $60 instead. My family, who arrived before me, paid the correct price. When I brought this up at the front desk, they confirmed the official price was $30. I questioned why I was overcharged, and the driver falsely claimed I didn’t have exact change, even though I had already given him the full amount. When I got to my room, I noticed dried urine inside the toilet bowl, which made me question the overall cleanliness of the room. If they didn’t clean the inside of the toilet, I could only assume they didn’t properly clean the rest of the bathroom either. As compensation, the hotel offered my daughter and me a free breakfast, but with restrictions—we had to eat in the restaurant and couldn’t order room service. This offer was only valid for one day. Additionally, I had informed the hotel in advance that I wouldn’t be able to check in on my scheduled arrival day due to airport issues preventing my flight from landing. I requested a refund for that night but never received a response. Since I booked through Expedia, I tried to contact them as well, but their phone lines were having technical issues, which made the whole process even more frustrating. Overall, my stay was stressful due to poor service, lack of cleanliness, and issue

The best hotel in Medellin. Far superior to Click Clack or Charlee. Restaurant is excellent but pricey. The only negative is the menu online for room service doesn’t exist. When you go online the menu shown is the downstairs bar menu and they give you no directory in the room to call the front desk or room service. So unless your psychic you have to go to the front desk to ask for a directory

The customer service here is outstanding. Every staff member at the front desk was phenomenal. I didnt have much interaction with other employees but when i did, everyone was very friendly and helpful. Great location. Rooms were great. The downfalls are that it is a bit noisy. And there is no pool or fitness center.

Upon getting dropped off I found the Building to be beautiful. I loved the design and immediately knew I was going to be well taken care of. Upon check in I was escorted to my room and given a quick tour. They give you a pass to receive welcome drinks from the rooftop bar, the drinks were delicious. The room is beautiful, the bathroom is stunning and the mattress and pillows are comfortable. The breakfast is really good and the burgers at the rooftop taste amazing. The staff goes the extra mile to make your stay as pleasant as possible.
