Hotel Bh Bicentenario

The view of mountains was beautiful and proximity to important plazas, museums, and good restaurants was very good. I found walking at 8,500 elevation a lot of work. Mostly the temp stayed around 69 degrees which is pleasant for walking if at a slow pace. Don't miss the Museums Botero and Gold.

Too many bums sleeping on sidewalks. Better stay somewhere away from city center and visit it by taxi. Someone threw half a brick at me from a bus while seated a Juan Valdez. Nobody did anything to investigate, no video, no questions. Glad I wasn't hit. Too much tolerance of street people is dangerous. Wouldn't recommend the area for families or older guests. I am 66 and well traveled so I know some things about behavior. The room had no way to cool down, in the 80s and 90s during the day even with the window open.

Liked the location. Room was clean and spacious enough for my needs. Staff were friendly. Security was good, the security person downstairs was available all the time and was watchful. Breakfast was good enough for a vegetarian (could be improved though).

Room was quite warm the whole time, did not find a way to control the temperature. Wanted to use laundry service but was informed it would take more than 2 days, not sure why it would take so much time in a big city. Ended up not using it. Toilet flush left much to be desired, the potty was never neat even after repeated flush after use. Breakfast could have had more vegetarian options.

The location was perfect and the hotel itself is very clean, modern, and nice. The staff was helpful and kind.

Unfortunately the beds were extremely firm and the rooms became warm at night since there is no AC. If your room is facing the city and you try and leave a window open it will be too loud.
