Loop INN Hostel Cartagena
The room was clean and warm. The shower was good. The staff were friendly. The hotel was well placed for the historic centre. The only minor complaint was that the double bed could have been a little wider.

Hotel Los Habaneros
Although the rooms are a little dated. This hotel is a lovely place to stay, it is really close to all the major sites of the city. The food in the restaurant is amazing and reasonably priced. On site parking is also a plus although there are limited spaces.
