While Media Luna was an awesome hostel with a good party atmosphere there was no air conditioning. Cartagena is nearly always 90 degrees or hotter with ridiculously high humidity. Its near impossible to sleep without air conditioning even with the giant fan they had going. One week of no sleep and trying to do homework for my class was enough. So I packed up and moved to El Viajero in the walled city. El Viajero is the same price as Media Luna with air conditioning and free breakfast included. Definitely not the same party atmosphere but at least I was able to actually sleep now. The wireless sucked however, which made online class difficult as I continually got logged out of class. The tropical storms here are crazy. I don’t think I have ever seen so much rain. The hostel employee girls convinced a lot of people to just put on their swimsuits and go party in the rain, which was pretty hilarious. Everyone was just partying in the pouring rain with reggaeton playing in the background.
