Socialtel Provenza Medellin

Good hotel

Great time

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 .

Window doesnt close fully. Laundry doesnt take money Not enough lighting in the room

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.
