Response from The Casa de Leda Team on 28 Jan,2024
Dear customer, First and foremost, we would like to thank you for choosing to stay at Casa de Leda and for sharing your experience with us. We are deeply sorry to hear that you had a negative experience due to health issues after consuming our arepas con huevos. Your feedback is taken very seriously, and we want to emphasize that the health and well-being of our guests are our top priorities. Our kitchen adheres to rigorous hygiene standards, and all preparations are carried out with utmost attention to food safety. It is important to note that the arepa de huevo is a traditional specialty from the Colombian coast, and we understand that many people, including your companion, appreciate it as an integral part of their culinary experience during their stay. It is interesting to note that other individuals who consumed the same arepas did not report similar symptoms. Furthermore, it is important to clarify that the egg inside the arepa is liquid, as it is a traditional characteristic of the preparation. However, we deeply regret if the comprehensive analyses you surely conducted determined that the discomfort was caused by the egg in the arepa. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience and discomfort you experienced. We have immediately taken steps to review and reinforce our food preparation protocols to avoid similar situations in the future. We deeply appreciate the shared feedback you've provided here and on various review websites with zeloaus. Your insights are incredibly valuable to us and play a crucial role in our ongoing efforts to enhance our services. Despite the challenges you've experienced, we sincerely hope for the chance to welcome you back in the future. It is our aim to offer you an exceptional and seamless experience that leaves you with fond memories of your stay. We remain at your disposal for any further clarification or assistance you may require. Best regards,

Convenient location on a quiet street. The LED room lighting needs to be fixed - the room ambience is not good with cheap LED bright white lights. Needs to be soft yellow. Otherwise its a nice decor.

The Best Boutique hotel in a city
This was an amazing property! Definitely would love to stay here again. The staff were so helpful and it was very clean. Super interesting decor. The room was awesome especially with the bathtub and patio doors that open to outside. The only downfall was the bed was rock hard. If there was a comfy bed it would be the best places I’ve ever stayed.

Amazing stay!
Casa de Alexa was a beautiful stay. The hotel is very carefully designed and taken care of. The suites and rooms were spacious and clean. It’s very close to the ocean and is located in the center of town. We loved our stay! However, there is no parking so make sure you plan for this, as parking was difficult to find or very full.

Coming up to this property I was worried. The street and area looked rough. Once we were on the property it turned out to be amazing, the suite was exceptional, and once you get over the culture shock of the area, it was incredible. Walking distance to restaurants, markets, banks, the beach, and some amazing cultural buildings. We spent a week at this property and our only regret was it wasn’t long enough.

I chose a room on the top floor for the view of the sky and it’s location in the Historic center. Casa de Leda offered me a free breakfast and Wifi to get me started. Many restaurants, bars and a Park de Los Novios is a walking distance from Casa de Leda. The Marina is a walking distance too and it offers many activities.

The hotel is very nice and close to the beach and what seemed like a Main Street. The staff were accommodating and the front desk staff came up to the rooftop to pour my wife a glass of wine when we arrived late (and was generous with the pour) the room was comfy and Very well designed. Unfortunately at about midnight or 1 am the house next door that did. It have a full roof, started blasting music and bass very loud. We thought there was a nightclub next door and we asked if there was anything they could do, we were told that since it is a private residence that they couldn’t. Its understandable that they could t do anything and I feel bad for the hotel having this place beside. I’m not sure if it’s a nightly occurrence since we only stayed one night but if it is, bring ear plugs. Everything else was amazing.

A great little hotel.
We took a suite for the first couple of days of our visit to Santa Marta and this hotel was perfect for us. The place is stylish, friendly, comfortable and central. The suite was a real treat, with a jacuzzi, plenty of space and a balcony, shaded by a wonderful tree, which was enjoyed by parakeets. There’s some great places to eat nearby and the hotel does a good breakfast. The pancakes were delicious. The masseur that the hotel calls on was excellent. Our bed was comfortable and huge and the bathroom had a great shower. The room temperature was easy to control, with air conditioning and/or ans. This was a luxurious place to relax and recoup before heading off on some great adventures in and around the area. We’d stay here again.

Nice hotel in a great location in the centro
We really enjoyed our stay. The room was a good size with large bathroom, nicely decorated and clean. Breakfasts were good with 5 choices each day. Staff was friendly and helpful, and spoke English for these gringos. The best part was the huge tree in the courtyard where hundreds of parrots gathered each evening at dusk. An amazing sight.

Best Hotel in Santa Marta
Spent 3 days in Santa Marta and this hotel was a total Godsend. We arrived at the city not feeling not so well and the comfort of the hotel made us really love this place. The breakfast was delicious with a great view of the city. The rooftop jacuzzi and ground floor pool with spa was a really nice touch. My friend got a massage and loved it, specially for the price and service. The hotel itself has a very unique architecture which blends old with new very nicely. The location could not be beat. It is 1 block from the main pedestrian thoroughfare (Calle 19) and 1.5 blocks from the other pedestrian street (Carrera 3). The main square, Parque de los Novios is about 3 blocks away. You really are in the heart of the city, and in the best part as well. I will not stay in another hotel when I return to Santa Marta, hopefully in the not so distant future.
