AC Hotel by Marriott Santa Marta
Loved my stay. Property was well kept and clean. Staff very friendly and helpful. Breakfast could have been more "local" than international with more local fresh products.

Arte Hotel
El televisor no funcionaba, nunca fueron a repararlo. La puerta de la habitacion estaba descolgada. Y la habitacion que me habian entregado primero no estaba lista. Al personal le falta mas servicio al cliente.
