Outsite Manila is a modern and comfortable space in a prime location, surrounded by restaurants, cafes, bars, gyms and shops, making daily life convenient while exploring Medellin. The space is clean, with great amenities like AC in the bedrooms, filtered water, and cozy furniture. Two balconies offer outdoor access, and a restaurant directly below adds convenience. The community manager, Estefania, was also very helpful and responsive at all times, and made great efforts to organize fun group events for everyone. The main drawback during my month-long stay here was the poor internet quality. It was often slow or dropped out completely, especially in my room (101), making video meetings unnecessarily stressful. Other minor issues included a shower door that didn't close properly, persistent noise from outside, and the housekeeper, though friendly, was sometimes distracting when talking on speakerphone while I worked in the common areas. Overall, Manila is a newer location with great potential. I'd recommend it for its location and amenities, rating it 10/10 for comfort. However, due to internet issues and noise, my overall rating is 7.5-8/10. If the internet improves, it's an easy 9.5/10.
