About this place HOTEL EL BOSQUE MELGAR

Hotel El Bosque is a mid-range hotel on Calle 8 in Melgar, the warm lowland town where Bogotá residents go on weekends for pools and sun. It is a mainstream gay-friendly hotel, not a gay venue, rated 4.2 across nearly 900 Google reviews. Melgar is busiest on weekends and Colombian public holidays (puentes), when prices rise and pools fill up, so book ahead or come midweek for a quieter stay. Check the hotel's website for current room types and what is included in the rate.

The cocktail staff's service is excellent, the food and drinks are excellent, but the pool leaves much to be desired. It looked dirty, and I didn't see it cleaned the next day. The toilet had problems flushing, the room window was sealed shut, preventing any airflow, and there was a bad smell in the room. The air conditioning wasn't powerful enough, making it feel stuffy and very hot. The elevator is in bad condition. They should invest in these aspects, as the service is good and the location is great. Honestly, the price-to-room ratio seems a bit expensive for how basic it is. I also expected at least a small refrigerator and good ventilation. They should open up those windows; that would be a big plus. The heat is truly stifling.

"I booked this hotel expecting a comfortable and well-maintained place, but the reality was very different. The pool, despite being large, was visibly dirty; the water looked unpleasant and seemed to have gone several days without proper maintenance or cleaning. The facilities in general looked neglected and somewhat abandoned, with an air of disrepair. The room, which wasn't exactly cheap, was far from luxurious. The bathroom was in very poor condition: the toilet seat and cistern were damaged, and worst of all, the toilet didn't flush properly; waste remained stagnant, making it very uncomfortable and unsanitary to use. Furthermore, the elevator service gave a very bad impression; it looked old and unsafe. Unfortunately, it doesn't live up to expectations at all for the price and category. I wouldn't recommend it in its current state."
