It is an average place to stay, an excellent and accessible area for many activities, but some staff members were rude.

Delphery J, 6-night trip

2/10 Poor

Booked a studio apartment for four nights. No A/c, no hot water. Does not mention anywhere while booking about these amenities. 150000 pesos if you have a guest(visitor). Poor quality towels. Gave me a room with broken wash sink and took them one day to switch room. Not going there again. Checked out after three nights and booked another hotel for one night since everything was solid booked due to flower festival .

Precio versus calidad muy distante , habitaciones básicas , camas de los años 80s y el personal del counter parecía forzado.

Kristaps, 2-night trip

4/10 Fair

Desatentis, los tendidos de cama sucios, la alimentación costosa y no es la mejor , los precios muy altos con expedia y la facturación electrónica un valor diferente al que pagué, eso para mirarlo con la Dian. Luces del pasillo donde estaba dañado, No vuelvo a ir.

Es más como un hostal para extranjeros. Las habitaciones dejan mucho que desear, tienen lo super básico, no hay aire acondicionado ni tv.

Lots of potential but….

This hotel has a lot of potential but lacking in a few key areas. First the positive. Room was spacious and comfortable. Bathroom was excellent! No AC but wasn’t necessary, however no fan and that is sometimes necessary on warmer days. The prices for their beverages are outrageous and not even particularly cold. The reception was very friendly but the ARMED security guard harrassed me because the staff had not given me a wristband, something I did not see on other guests. I was wearing my American flag hat so maybe he was part of the “harrass the gringos” club encouraged by their new socialist, Maduro and China friendly, President? Most Colombians despise him and he will be gone in the next election unless he cheats like Maduro which is certainly possible. Overall I still give this hotel 4/5 stars because MOST of the staff were very friendly and welcoming . Replace the security guard and put fans in the rooms and I would give it 5/5 stars.
Dale, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Staff was very rude. I forgot my passport but had a photo of my ID page on my phone which of course matches me. The staff demanded my physical passport, wanting to examine the stamped pages, and would not let me check in. My visas are none of their business. They would not respond when I asked for a refund since they would not allow me to check in, so I had to dispute the charge on my credit card since the room was paid in advance. I had to find different accommodations. Never again.

Liz Adriana, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

On our second day, we came back to the hotel only to find ROACHES crawling around the room. Easily, we counted about 10 between the ones we spotted and those we could kill. This all happened during the night; so when we went to the reception, they said we had to wait until the maintenance/room service morning shift came so they could clean. The problem is that they had already done the room cleaning service that very day. On another note, the room only has 1 window that faces THE FLOOR'S HALL. There's no other window.

Very nice hostel, well located, spacious kitchen, friendly and helpful staff. The Wifi isn’t working that well in all the rooms though and I could hear the music from the bar even on the sixth floor. Overall, I was pleasantly satisfied with my stay there.

Excelente ubicación, muy ruidoso

El personal de la recepción (Santiago) es muy amable y la mayoría son muy atentos a ayudar, hay una barberia y otras amenidades que evitan el tener que salir a buscarlas, las actividades sociales (Welcome drink, Pub Crawl) son buenísimas y crean contacto y amistad rn los huéspedes, un punto a mejorar es que el edificio no cuenta con insonorización y al estar tan cerca de Provenza, el ruido es demasiado para poder dormir bien.

Me encantó el lugar súper limpio! El personal lindo y atento en todo momento :) sin duda volvería a hospedarme en selina! Solamente lo que se tardaba demasiado era el elevador por que solo funcionaba uno tuvimos mala suerte con eso, pero todo lo demás excelente!
Yesenia, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Todo está increíble, ubicación, personal, estancia. Lo único que no me gustó es el horario de cafetería, cierra a las 6:00 pm y me parece muy temprano, incluso cuando uno quiere cenar o un aperitivo ya no hay servicio. Pero de ahí en más todo muy bien, si volvería a hospedarme en un Selina está es la segunda ocasión.
