Amazing place to stay at. Central location with about a 6 minute walk inside the Old town (historic part). The downstairs lobby was nice and the food/drink is tasty and at a good price. The staff service was amazing and easy to communicate with. The only con is no swimming pool but that’s not super common anyway.

⭐⭐⭐⭐☆ (4/5)

I stayed in the Deluxe Junior Suite at Mood Matuna Hotel and overall had a very good experience. The room was very spacious, and the tub really complemented the room and gave it a nice relaxing feel.

When I first arrived, I opened the shades and noticed the window was cracked. I informed the front desk, and they immediately moved me to another room without any hassle. The service throughout my stay was excellent, and the complimentary breakfast was fairly decent.

The hotel also has a functional gym, which was a nice bonus if you want to get a quick workout in during your stay.

One thing to keep in mind is that the hotel is located on a busy street, so there can be traffic noise outside at night. That said, the building itself was quiet.

One minor inconvenience was that the hotel didn’t provide shower rags (washcloths), so keep that in mind if that’s something you prefer to use.

Side note: The hotel has a pretty strict guest policy. If you plan on having a guest visit during your stay, make sure they’re registered before you check in to avoid any issues.

Overall, I think the hotel offers decent value for the price. Between the spacious room, good service, functional amenities, and convenient location, I’d definitely consider staying here for a short stay.

The location is perfect. You’re right between everything. No need for an Uber or taxi to go anywhere. Room was clean, smelled nice, staff was polite even though we speak very little Spanish. Air Conditioning is outstanding. The only slight issues are there’s no refrigerator and the “pool” is more like a soaking tub. It appears the one on the other aide is larger and what’s seen in most of the photos. It wasn’t a huge issue. We only used it a few times. A couple chairs to sit outside on the balcony would also be a great addition.

Pros: Clean room, I didn’t find it to be too loud, walked into my room with the AC already running and it was nice and cold, Nice Smart TV and Wifi, Balcony, overall friendly staff

Cons: YOU CAN ONLY HAVE ONE GUEST with a 2 person reservation , You cant pay to switch or have extra guest they dont tell you this until AFTER you’ve paid. No Microwave, Fridge, or iron in the standard room. Elevator only goes up to 5th floor so try to get a room on floors 1-5. Breakfast is not free and I never received my free bottle of wine. The shower was mediocre lights were too dim for my liking and the shower head was busted

Overall its a clean hotel and is walking distance from many things. It is located in not the “nicest” neighborhood. Shoutout to Orlando he’s cool!

We had a great stay at Mood Matuna. Having a hotel in such a central location was so useful. We were able to easily walk to the old town and Getsemani also. The room with the private pool was a god choice as it was so hot and nice to cool off after a walk around.
The area around the hotel did have some people sleeping on the streets but no one bothered us in fact the people in general were really helpful and friendly including the staff at the hotel.
The room was cleaned thoroughly each day and clean towels left when we needed them.
Overall a great four nights in a central location.

My stay at Mood Matuna was amazing and made my birthday trip feel perfect. Before I arrived, Maria, Daniel, and the rest of the staff communicated with me through WhatsApp and helped with transportation, decorations, breakfast, excursions, dinner reservations, water, ice, and the sunset cruise. They answered every question with patience and kindness and never made me feel like I was asking too much.

The birthday decorations were beautiful and looked even better in person. The balloons, flowers, rose petals, candles, wine, and birthday numbers made the room feel so special and were perfect for pictures and videos. I appreciated how clearly they explained the decoration package, pricing, and what was included. They even worked with my arrival time so I could create content.

The room was cleaned and reset perfectly every day, and the free breakfast was really good. The staff was helpful, from bringing breakfast to the room when we were rushing to an excursion to helping with towels, water, and ice. The location was perfect, close to restaurants, nightlife, shopping, excursions, and tourist spots. Everything felt easy to get to.

My only negatives were no elevator to the suite, and the pool jets were broken until the last day. Even with that, I recommend this hotel and would book here again. Thank you to Maria, Daniel, and staff for making my birthday so special. I’ll also be posting a full TikTok review with room views, decorations, excursions, and pictures @biglexdrafts.

Overall, I had a good experience at the hotel. During check-in, there was a slightly awkward situation with the front desk gentleman with the two-tone hair (yellow on top, black underneath), mainly due to a misunderstanding and language barrier. I admit it made me feel a little uncomfortable at first, but the rest of the staff was very helpful and professional throughout my stay.
The breakfast and lunch were excellent, and the servers truly provided 10-star service with their kindness and attention. The location is also very convenient and enjoyable.
The only downside is that the hotel does not allow guests in the rooms, which may be something travelers should be aware of beforehand. Aside from that, the hotel has great potential and continues to improve with minor adjustments.

They are amazing. All the stuff is super friendly. The Breakfast is just out of this world. Don’t lose your time. Going to another restaurant to have breakfast. Just stay right there. That’s my advice Breakfast around Cartagena not good. There is a couple of things regarding the room. don’t take me wrong. The room is just beautiful and super clean but they give you just two towels. There is no iron in the room and no hairdryer but you can always request for and they will get it to you and within two minutes. I guess that’s their policy oh one more thing the location is just perfect is close to every little thing.

Mood Matuna was decent. I can't honestly say anything bad about it at all, the staff themselves we're OUTSTANDING and they are the bread and butter of this location. What makes this only a decent stay is, it does not look like it's pictures at all. The lighting is much more dim, water pressure is very low, there is a very questionable window in the bathroom that if you were to open it, you can crawl to the next room if you fit in there? And one of the things I was looking forward to the most; the pool, was completely dirty, which was a big reason for booking that top floor room. Other than that, it was a pleasant stay for just the night.

I stayed at Mood Matuna for 4 days and it such a home away from home. The staff is not only kind and helpful, they are professional. The hotel has transportation arrangements back and forth from the airport. It is located in a local neighborhood, so it felt like you were living there rather than just visiting while also been literally steps away from all the touristy stuff. The restaurant was delicious and very reasonably priced. The rooms are clean, modern, and definitely have that boutique hotel vibe. I work virtually and they made it very easy to do so, even sending technician to make sure there was an outlet in man area of work. If you want the local vibe plus tourist care hybrid, this is your place.

My experience at this hotel is not pleasant. The room is quite different from the picture. We got a room with such layout and the first night the sheets were not clean. The restroom is completely dark at night. The service was good and they send things we need. However, my friend asked for coffee and they told us to get some coffee at the restaurant and charged one cup 3 dollars. They have coffee machine and can make coffee, but I do not understand we got charged for the bad coffee in the restaurant area.

Also, we booked at Expedia and every night the price is more than normal price on Expedia. They explained it was because of the algorithm. We checked the prices for the future days, but it shows that we were overcharged and they refused any refund.

Overall, we felt that we were cheated. The location is good but it is not worth the money at all. We never got the free wine it says on Expedia website.

The hotel staff was very friendly and helpful. The overall experience was good but not excellent. The water went out for half a day in the whole city so that was a big factor on why it wasn’t excellent. Also, the area around the hotel is not that nice and there’s a lot of older buildings that seem dirty. The quality of the soaps and amenities could be improved. The hotel itself was very clean in the rooms and around the hotel.

Rooms were clean and spacious, albeit the organization was a bit odd, and tonnes of unused space. Staff were kind and friendly, and quick to accommodate requests. Upon check-in, there were no towels in the room, so we had to request them. There was also only 1 roll of TP, which meant we also had to request more when it ran out. Bathroom space is tiny. Breakfast service was slow and crowded, but the food was fine. It was evident that the restaurant was understaffed and the few people running it were doing the best they could. The location itself is noisy and dirty, but it’s a short walk away from most tourist spots. It’s a decent, cheap stay for people looking for a comfortable bed and a hot shower.

Room was clean and breakfast was excellent. Maria at the reception was very helpful and friendly. However, replacing towels during daily room clean up seems to be an issue. For two days in a row, the room was cleaned, beds made up, but towels were not replaced. Had to wait good 15-30 mins to get new towels when we returned to the room. The other issue is the noise. The rooms have zero sound proof. You can clear your next door neighbors middle of the night and the street noise throughout the night.

The location is really good, a very short walk away (5 minutes) from most places we wanted to go to.

Arriving at the hotel we became a little worried because the area outside was not the best looking. But once inside the staff was very friendly and helpful and the hotel itself was very clean and up to date. My room was just right and I had a balcony that overlooked the street. There wasn’t much to look at but it was good for when I just wanted to step out and get some air or some sun. The gym was small but it got the job done. The restaurant was perfecto. The food was really really good everything I ordered was delicious. Now for the not so good things. The hotel has a no visitor policy so no friends of any sort can enter the hotel with you. It kind of felt like a dorm room😂 but the upside to that is that you are allowed to add your companion to your room before you come to check in so I had no issues whenever my friend came to visit. The staff is totally loyal to this policy and I amend them all because they were offered absurd amounts of money and they stayed true to their policy😂. All and all I really enjoyed my stay. If you are single and like to mingle when you vacation it’s not the place for you.

Great hotel! Clean, stylish, comfortable, convenient location and super professional and friendly staff. I have nothing bad at all to say about my stay. I would definitely stay here on my next visit. Two things.... the front desk manager with the high puff hairstyle is absolutely gorgeous! The only thing I didn't like was that the hotel does not use/have washcloths. Breakfast was included with my room, but be sure to order things exactly how you want if you are not used to the Colombian way to cook certain items. Overall the breakfast food was not bad and the restaurant manager was VERY NICE and accommodating. I was pleasantly please that a good number of the staff was bilingual. Easy checkin. Room was very spacious. Easy walk to both the Walled City as well as Gethsemane. It was a nice long and hot walk, but we actually walked up to the CARTEGENA sign on the beach in the heat! However we took a taxi back. But that's to let you know it's doable. I definitely recommend MOOD for anyone visiting. The rate we got was amazing as well. THANK YOU!

Mood Matuna was an excellent choice for our stay in Cartagena. The staff was excellent. In particular, Marjorie and Maria made our stay very enjoyable. Their excellent hospitality, professionalism, attentiveness and sunny disposition made our trip. The rooms were very spacious and the housekeeping staff were great. When we decided to stay in the Walled City we knew that it was going to be bustling, noisy, and crowded, but that was something we wanted to experience. The Walled City is old and everything is not aesthetically pleasing, but that was not something we cared about. So, if you want to be in walking distance of Getsmani, La Gorda Gertrudis, the Clock Tower, Plaza de Santo Domingo and Castillo de San Felipe de Barajas to name a few this is a good choice. Thank you again to Marjorie and Maria from the Grant Family (Kevin, Sonya, Bennie & Anitra).

The party bus comes around so be prepared for that. They don’t have a microwave but it’s plenty of spots you can eat at. All in all the stay was amazing. Room is big, bed is big, we stayed in room 507 and any black Americans this hotel is the one to choose if visiting the city!

I thought it was in a good location because it was a close walking distance from all the main spots

The staff was fantastic. They were very accommodating and patient with my limited ability to speak or understand Spanish. The property is located very close to the cultural parts of the city. Enjoyed my stay and would definitely consider if I return to Cartagena.
