I'll be flying into Cartagena, staying one night, then flying out the next day. Can someone recommend a hotel or apartment near the airport? I do not want to stay in bocagrande or centro for logistical and other reasons.
I have a map of cartagena, and it has four hotels on the map closest to the airport: Marbella, BellaVista, Del Mar, Mira Mar. Anyone know of these places?
I suppose I can just get in a taxi that day and walk up to apartment buildings and ask, but I like to have things planned out better than that.
Thanks in advance!

Saltador says on May 1, 2007, 07:36: I should have emphasized that I do not want to stay in bocagrande or laguito for a good reason. Can't go into much more details than that. Otherwise, I know it's cheap to get there and easy in a taxi. But I have my reasons for avoiding the area that night.

Gator says on May 1, 2007, 08:58: you get Hotel Bellavista, $15.000 por noche. No a/c, in Crespo about 5 minutes from the airport. It's what you would expect for $7.00 USD a night. Have only passed by this place and NEVER even thought about going inside. "Brevior Sltare Cum Deformibus Mulieribus Est Vita!" . 0 funny, 0 helpful. |
