Reviews and Ratings
The Hotel Alvaravan offers a budget-friendly stay with spacious and comfortable rooms. The staff is genuinely caring, and the dining experience exceeded my expectations with great meals. However, the lack of a mini-fridge and limited airflow in the room were drawbacks. While the neighborhood has its rough edges, I felt safe during my stay. Overall, it's a great spot for value-conscious travelers looking for comfort.
Staying at Alcaravan was a fantastic experience. The room was clean and comfortable, and for such a budget-friendly price, I couldn't ask for more. The dining options were quite good, especially the made-to-order breakfast. While the shower setup was unusual without a nozzle, the hot water made it okay. Just a heads up, the area has a bit of a rough edge, but I always felt safe walking around. Overall, I loved my time here and would definitely come back.
The Hotel Alcaravan is a solid choice for budget-conscious travelers, offering clean and comfortable rooms. The staff, while not fluent in English, are eager to communicate and add to the charm of the stay. The area has its quirks, but it's a unique experience. On the downside, the limited shower facilities and occasional noise might not be ideal for everyone. Overall, it’s a great place to enjoy Medellin without breaking the bank.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The staff was genuinely helpful and friendly, which made my stay enjoyable. However, the rooms were a bit outdated and the noise levels were quite disruptive. The location was decent but had some rough edges. Overall, it provided good value for the budget-conscious traveler, but improvements are definitely needed.
