Burning problem with shower

I always stay at Scala 68 because it´s close to my son´s house. Problem: When you´re taking a bath (shower) the cold water´s pressure suddendly and for a few seconds goes DOWN so you get only HOT water thus burning yourself. Please have the hotel check the hydro-pneumatic system (it keeps equal water pressure throughout the building).

El hotel es impecable. Habitaciones cómodas y agradables con el suficiente espacio para estar y trabajar cómodo. El personal es super amable y atento, la zona es genial para comer y tomar algo luego del trabajo. Tiene un excelente detalle: acceso irrestricto a un complejo deportivo frente al hotel.

Its a simple hotel, location is great, construction next door very loud (not their fault) but disrupts your sleep very early on. This is my 3rd or 4th time dont remember, but i think will try another one..if you want to stay in your room and leave around midday they dont clean because they have a cleaning curfew.. I lost my key and they didnt replace it, when i arrived they had to go upstairs and open door for me..overall its ok for the price, people are nice ..

Great location and perks for price.

Hotel is located in the Chapinero neighborhood close to affordable upscale restaurants. Small, boutique property. Firm beds, no air conditioning as is the norm in most hotels in Bogotá. Crack the window open as soon as you check in and within a couple hours your room will be in excellent sleeping condition. The staff is definitely a highlight, Fernando is a star during breakfast, goes out of his way to provide excellent service. The hotel includes free entry to a gym across the street that I personally took advantage of and really helped get my day started with the altitude change.

Amazing location, great bed, fast internet, clean.

Very boutique, location could not be better more than 100 amazing restaurants in a 4 block radius 2 blocks from the Four Season hotel in which we have stay and really notice very little diferente in staff service. Bed is comfortable, small room but all you really need, breakfast service was great chef came to personally ask us how we wanted our eggs and if my husband wanted a fresh made breakfast sandwich instead of eggs. Internet was fast it work great during our 2 days stay. Noise leve was low no issues there. Cleanliness was perfect even the elevator small like lavender all the time. I was impress speacially cause the price was pretty low so my expectations were low but was very impress. We will continue to go back here.

Very thin walls - uncomfortable

I hate to write a bad review because the staff were great but I really had a problem with Hotel Scala 68. The walls are so thin I could hear reception from my room on the second floor. The hotel staff are up all night so I was woken up around 6 times by simple things like someone laughing in the lobby. I’ve never experienced anything like it. Also there is no heating in the room and it was freezing. My room also had a street light directly outside the window (and there are no curtains, only transparent shades). Positives are that the staff were very friendly and the location is good. Sadly though, I had a very uncomfortable stay and would not return.

Lawrence, 23 Apr 2018

Just alright

While it was clean, in a good location and had good service, I would not recommend this hotel for three reasons: a) the room was very small and had no heat or cooling. b) the mattress was way too soft and terrible for people with bad backs and c) for the first time in my life I was told that we could not be given two keys. This last point is important, because when two people have only one key a life-threatening situation could easily occur. This is not acceptable.

Fallas permanentes en sistema hidroneumático producen bajas en presión del agua fría en la ducha con consecuentes quemadas con el agua caliente 🔥. Muy peligroso ⚠️. He ido a este hotel durante muchos años, me he quejado sin resultados. Tendré que llegar a otro hotel.
