We were surprised when we arrived to our hotel. The fifteen story building looked out-of-place among the more modest two- and three-story buildings in the neighborhood.

The Charlee Hotel – looking up

Our surprise turned to glee when we arrived to our room and noticed the glass doors opened completely onto a decent sized patio, creating the perfect indoor/outdoor living space. The weather in Medellin is perfect to have windows open all the time – not too hot, not too cold.

Indoor Outdoor Living

We unpacked then explored the hotel. The top floor housed the pool, surrounded by amazing panoramic views of the city.

Each floor highlighted a different artist. Life (us) imitated art on each of the floors as we chose our favorite pieces and took photos. I think we’re going to like it here just fine.
