Colombia Hotels prices and taxes

FYI, Please note guys when you book a Hotel in Colombia the price very rarely includes taxes, many charge a 10% service fee and 16% hotel tax,
That means on a $110 hotel the real price is $138. Also it did not include breakfast, so I have another $12, so my total was $150, The agency offered me the hotel for $120, I thought I was going to save money when I found the hotel for $110, I actually paid $30 more per night then I needed to. Make sure to compare apples to apples when booking a room.

Hotel Room additional fees

I you plan to bring a friend to your room, also make sure you ask about guest fees or book a double in advance. Guest fees can add up quickly!
