Reviews for GHL Comfort Costa Azul Hotel
Review 1:The lobby lounge is mosquito ridden, mostly due to the problems with the air conditioning system. There is a missing panel in the ceiling and water dripping. This is a significant health and safety hazard. The whole system is a bit decrepit and noisy in the rooms, even on the lowest settings. There does not seem to be any regular monitoring of standards and the myriad of details which go into the running of a hotel. For example, in the restaurant many of the staff were willing, but there was no head waiter or manager ensuring high standards of service are kept. Most of the time, tables were only half laid and it got very tiresome asking for things that should have been there already.
Review 2:This is a family hotel: great for kids and their parents to enjoy the beach and the huge pool. Most of the staff are friendly and helpful. The reception staff were very professional and efficient. As a couple with a 4 year old child the junior suite was more than enough with its lounge, balcony, two bathrooms and kitchenette. The little girl spent hours in the children's pool.
Review 3:Sometimes, lobby area smells like bathroom
Review 4:Excellent view, pools and beach. Staff very kind and helpful and breakfast is good. Great choice for family trip with short stay or if you want to relax away from crowded cities
Review 5:The rooms are big but require overall maintenance, which I was told is already planned. The worst were the ants in the kitchenette area!
Review 6:-Swiming pools and beach were clean, safe and good. -Continental Breakfast was very good
Review 7:can't believe such big hotels using more than 10 years old A/C, changed 3 times rooms because the A/C problem. Room has ants even in 10 floor, Wi-fi never ok for use
Review 8:Very nice waitress who can speak english and help us to solve the porblem with room booking, change... nice swimming poolsm, clean rooms
Review 9:The room had an issue with the air conditioner. The roof was falling apart... the people on restaurant were not agile... there was no availability of all the products at the restaurant.... the beach was poor and messy.... overall experience 2/10
Review 10:The pool. Nothing more.
Review 11:The facility is starting to show its age. It needs a refit. Mirrors taps showerheads air-conditioners. The view at the beach is of an offshore coal loading facility with the lineup of freighters and barges. Not that nice to look at unless you are the owner it's a ways out of town to I had a car so it wasn't too much trouble for me, but if you don't have a car, I'd say it's too far out this address will take you to a very nice neighbourhood right on the beach, it's touristic****Calle 6 1 26 Santa Marta,MA****soft sell from the hustlers safe
Review 12:I like the bed and pillows there was both soft which is hard to find in Columbia in the room I was in was quiet. I also enjoyed the open-air restaurant next to the pool
Review 13:This hotel is too far from the city (Santa Marta). The wifi is horrible, the wifi sign is too poor into the bedroom.
Review 14:The pool is nice. The staff is very kind.
Review 15:NO HOT WATER FOR ENTIRE STAY. It seems that there is never hot water in the main building. Electric outage one day during the afternoon (hot), while maintenance being performed. No AC, no fan, no elevator; I was on the ninth floor. There is no bartender at the pool bar; you have to go looking for a waiter to serve you drinks. The Hotel is in the middle of nowhere; there is a small shop on premises with very limited amount of goods and it closes at 6 pm (their prices are the same price as the restaurant for water, sodas, etc.)
Review 16:Staff very cordial. Pool is nice and clean every day. Security adequate. Very nice views.
Review 17:You have to share breakfast and pool with the guests of RCI Resort...
Review 18:I went afraid after read so many bad reviews and comments... But it was really good for us. I think that difference is because we stay at costa azul suites(GHL) building and not at costa azul resort (RCI) where I suppose is all the bad reviews I did read. The rooms at this building are big, good beds, big and comfortable bathroom and nice balcony, high ceiling and they have energy generator in case of went out of power. Front beach at few steps.
Review 19:GHL should work with the authorities of the municipality to keep clean an area located about un block ahead to Highway and next to train tracks used for some neighbors to throw there trash bags. The goods at room's minibar and mini market are very expensive.
Review 20:The room I requested by Booking.com and phone call to the hotel was honored. The staff is very friendly, courteous and thoughtful. The staff in customer service was very dedicated in all my questions. There are lifesaver and security staff attentive.

Review 50:the worst hotel ever. We came at 11 am with flew and migran, and they let us wait until 3 pm in the heat, incapable to provide us a cool place to stay and wait, and no medical help.
