Just adequate. The room was in super poor condition. Missing tiles, no handle for the bathroom sink, folding chair for the desk. No couch. The pool is nice in that it’s in the sun and has good views and wasn’t crowded. The WiFi was questionable at best and didn’t support video calls in the room or lobby.

The all inclusive option is a little different because it is limited but even when paying for drinks after hours the prices were very reasonable. The food was decent and the room had a wonderful view.

La Gran Via offered me a relaxing atmosphere on arriving Cartagena. The view was exceptional. The beach vibe and the coastal feel was quite immersive. The staff are quite friendly, courteous, and did address any concerns I had during my stay. The hotel was quite clean and well maintained and the breakfast had a lot of excellent options, adding a delightful culinary experience to the stay.
In all - I will be visiting again as I enjoyed my stay here

Great staff. There was a nice selection of food to choose from. I wish the drink package was longer so you can have an alcoholic beverage at dinner.
