Bogota motel......but not for what you are thinking !!!

I will arrive back in bogota about 11pm and I have a flight to my beloved Pereira at 6am the following day , so I was thinking a motel would be a good option to paying the inflated prices at the hotels around bogota airport( now the Capital wants 300 mil !!!! ).
In Pereira thay are numerous with jacuzzi and other comforts for around 50 mil for 5 hours.......good value againts 300 mil.
If anyone has the details of a motel close to airport I would be grateful.

If there's an information desk at the airport then ask there where a cheap hotel is. Also ask the cab driver. I only paid 55k a night for a hotel in bogota. Who cares if it's not close to the airport if you're going to save like 200k pesos.

There is an information desk on the second level...the girls that usually work there are pretty hot. I typically just spend the night in the airport.....the airport has a couple of waiting areas on the second floor...and although sometimes it's kinda noisy you can usually catch some zzzzzz before your morning flight.

There's a famous love Motel right outside El Dorado called the Motel El Dorado. You could actually walk there if you wanted.

Give us a report back.

Hola!

Do not go to the hotel!

You land at 11PM, get your baggage, and could leave the hospital around 12. You need to be back at the airport before 5 AM to make your flight. I stayed overnight at the airport, and it was alot better than over sleeping and missing your flight! Hangout by the Colombia Police station there near the information desk.

Hola!

OOPS!

I was making a BIG mistake when I typed hospital, but I could not edit it!

The HOTEL, I meant!
