Beautiful property in the Old San Juan area! The staff was extremely friendly and accommodating. Conveniently located close to local shops and stores in the area. Can get a bit noisy on the weekends but that is to be expected given the area you are in !

If you're looking to stay in a clean, well run, affordable place in the heart of Old San Juan, this place is PERFECT. The staff is friendly. The roof top tapas bar is great. And you are literally staying at the first constructed area of Old San Juan - right next to the Cathedral, 100 meters from the Red Gate, minutes from El Morro. Absolutely great!

The hotel itself is nice. The room was clean, tall ceilings, and very good A/C. Our problem was that it is very noisy at night. Even with earplugs, pillows over head, the noise of the drunken people leaving the bar that was just below our window was tough. We likely will not stay at this hotel again.

Hotel was super nice and the staff was amazing. I gave the hotel 4 stars because the rooftop bar was only open in the weekend. i stood there during the week and didn't have access to the rooftop nor had the opportunity to enjoy any amenities. Would have liked access and a choice of a bar onsite.

Terribly inflexible for natural disaster
Property was completely inflexible with my reservation when a Tropical Storm (Ernesto) came through and my plane flight was changed to the next day I was supposed to arrive. I was scheduled to stay at this hotel my first night. I missed the window to move or change my date by less than one day (which was still 3 days before my original arrival date). I didn’t even want to cancel but wanted to move my reservation to later in the week. Hotels.com reached out on my behalf about moving the reservation, as did I but they would not budge and I lost my money (several hundred) for the hotel room. Completely sad that they have such a rigid, inflexible policy in the event of a natural disaster. Seems more than a little unfair when it was completely out of my hands because of flights.
