Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Business area, not the historic centre — The hotel is in a business district, which may not suit travellers wanting to be in Cali's old town or cultural areas. The property itself lists no landmarks nearby.
- Paid airport shuttle — The airport shuttle is not free; guests needing transport should budget for this extra cost.
- Limited check-in window — Check-in is available only from 15:00 to 23:59, which may complicate late arrivals. Check-out is at 13:00, offering some flexibility.
- Potential noise from business area — Being in a business area, the surroundings may be busier during work hours. While not mentioned in reviews, the location implies this.
