Hotel industry worries about negative effects of informal rentals
In Medellín, visitors have a wide array of options in terms of accomodations. According to Cotelco Antioquia, there are some 4,800 rooms available, 95 percent of which are located in El Poblado, El Estadio, Laureles and downtown.
Hotel executives, however, have expressed concern over the threat that so-called “parralel accomodations’ pose to the industry, which are apartments rented out to out-of-town visitors that do not have the necessary paperwork and licenses to function as such, and protested authorities’ lack of action to control unlicensed properties.

Well, hotel industry in Medellin have forgotten that they are located at El Poblado, and el Poblado is not 5th Avenue New York City or mid’town Changai.
Come to senses…not everyone who is in the 1% of multi’millionaires are willing to come to pay 2 million pesos or more per night! Fern burn first than the pig…here there or anywhere else for that matter. Alberteacher from Bilingual Colombia thinks so…what about you?
