“This is a solid budget-friendly base, well-situated near convention spaces and the U.S. Embassy in a calmer area of the city. I appreciate the self-check-in and the communal kitchen; it's a setup that works for independent travel. Its proximity to both the airport and the interesting Teusaquillo district adds to the appeal, making it a practical choice.”
