I was here just a month ago and had an even better experience this time around. I love how close the hotel is to everything. The walk to the docks to go to an island was so convenient. The grocery stores and express store is such a convenient walk. Being back so soon the building staff remembered me.
I love presidential unit and will be getting it again on my next trip to Cartagena.

I really liked my stay at Ganem. I noticed a good amount of reviews said there was no hot water, my shower was hot. I loved the style of the apartment and the size was perfect for me. I just wish the building was more friendly about guest. The building staff was great though, they helped with directions to a few shops when I asked. Overall a fantastic experience. I only dealt with the hotel staff on the first day of 6 nights and they were great.

No windows in the rooms.
Felt like being in a cell.
This is a decent capsule hotel
That has staff working.
No drinkable water provided
Just bed and towel
This hotel is more fitting to people who don't really care about the hotels but rather think as the hotels are just places to sleep

It’s non refundable for a reason
If you want to be in the walled city , in walking distance of most of the restaurants and attractions - this place is for you .
If you don’t like loud construction noise for long periods time IN the building you’re staying in or staff constantly walking into your room with THEIR keycard - this place is not for you .
If you don’t mind having to ask for room service 24 hours in advance or having to wear a wristband for the entire stay - this place is for you .
If you don’t mind having room service walk into your room, using their key, 3 times without ever being called , within (12 hours of your arrival) to replace your towels - this place is for you .
If you think that staying at a hotel where you’re not allowed guests means that you won’t be disturbed by constant knocks at the door or people walking in ( with their own key ) after 1 knock - this place isn’t for you .
If you don’t mind changing in the bathroom with the door closed every time because the staff has already walked into your room, while you were changing , 2 times in the first 2 days - this place is for you .
If you don’t want to rent 2 rooms for you and your guest and have your guest asking you “what’s wrong with these people” and “did you ask these people to clean ny room because they keep coming into my room unannounced” - this place is not for you .
If you don’t mind being told that checkout is 11AM and you have to be out by 10:45AM but before 10AM, staff walks in while you’re getting dressed - it’s for you !

The accommodations were very clean, very comfortable, and very well located in the historic center. However we were disappointed that our room had no windows to the outside, that there was no hot water in the shower, and that we were not provided with any drinking water.

The building itself was undergoing some construction projects that created some noise and dust but not too bad. Otherwise, charming room with adequate space and nice amenities, located in the heart of the old city. Fairly quiet at night, aside from a little traffic noise. Would definitely stay again!
