While the hotel has its charm, my experience was hindered by its location and some service issues. The rooms were nicely decorated and comfortable, but the air conditioning struggles made for a restless night. The staff was a mix; some were helpful, while others dropped the ball. Overall, it's worth considering other options until the construction in the area is finished.

I had a mixed experience at Hotel Arsenal. The rooms were spacious and comfortable, and the customer service was commendable. However, the noise from the nearby club at night was a bit disruptive, and there were some maintenance issues with the balcony door and blinds. Overall, it's a clean place in a decent location, but I felt it had some rough edges that need addressing for a longer stay.

The hotel offers great service, with staff that are both helpful and friendly. The location feels safe, but be prepared for noise from a nearby club, especially if you plan to sleep early. The breakfast included is simple but sufficient. Overall, the hotel is decent for the price, but the humidity and occasional maintenance issues can be a downside.

Located in a safe area of Cartagena, it's within walking distance to attractions, but the noise from a nearby club can be bothersome at night.

Breakfast included was basic-an omelet, fruit, and coffee-satisfying but not impressive. Prices for additional food options seemed high.

The facilities were adequate for the price; however, some improvements could be made regarding maintenance and cleanliness, especially with humidity.

I was really pleased to find this hotel after a less-than-great stay elsewhere. The rooms are spacious and modern, with great amenities. The staff were super helpful, and the location is quite convenient for exploring. However, the road construction made it a bit tricky to access, and there were some mixed experiences with the service during my stay.

I had a frustrating experience with my reservation at this hotel. While the room I eventually received was comfortable, the staff did not honor my booking for a deluxe room, which was quite disappointing. The hotel is affected by significant construction noise, and the service could have been better. Unfortunately, I won't be returning here.
