Good located cheap hostel. Room was noisy
Clean rooms and friendly staff. If you speak zero Spanish you will need google translate to interact with the staff as they don't speak any English. Hotel Marlin was very fairly priced compared to the other private rooms we looked at.
Room had no ventilation, no windows, no AC just a ceiling fan that wobbled around and was tiny. Staff were not amazing and the rooms are directly adjacent to the entrance so loud. The hostels have better private rooms for less money.
The guy at the reception is a d***. The are very unfriendly and din't even allow your visitors to use the bathroom. If somebody wants to visit you and hang out in the publick area they try to charge them money
Very affordable compaired to many other hostels in cartagena. We stayed in a room without a/c but it didn't really matter. It's next to a great place to go dancing and drinking
Affordable, clean, small, humble rooms. Optional air conditioning. A little run down, but staff is friendly. Free WiFi. Ice cold beverages available downstairs. A little loud at night due to dance clubs. 15 minutes walk from most of the historic city sights.
