The name of the building is called Nuevo Conquistador, and it is in the Boca Grande/Laguito neighborhood of Cartagena, Colombia. You can just show up here and go around to the little real-estate agencies on the first floor and find a cheap apartment or room on any given day. There is no need for appointments or Airbnb bookings (although a good 20% or so of all Airbnbs in Cartagena, Colombia in fact are located in this massive building). Depending on how large of a place you want you are looking at around $35 to $60 bucks a night on the high end.

It is right near the beach and it is very easy to get a taxi here at any hour of the day or night. There is a restaurant and two small grocery stores on the first level as well. 


If you do rent a modest airbnb in Cartagena, there is a very good chance that in fact it is located in this massive structure. The picture above really does not do its size justice. Again, it is low-budget, you will not get a Ritz Carlton type room here. But you can get a good apartment with strong internet and with more than acceptable security.


It is located in the most safe area of Cartagena: Bocagrande/Laguito.
