Provider-sourced guest reviews.
It was very comfortable and the staff were extra helpful and friendly, especially Daniel.
Excelente ubicación
La habitación amplia cn salón de estar . Situación inmejorable
La ubicación es perfecta.
Únicamente que no se hizo aseo a la habitación en las dos jornadas que nos hospedamos.
Camera grande e spaziosa. Bagno veramente bello.
We loved the location, the the accommodations, and the friendly staff. We also appreciated the readiness of the room upon check-in, great communication prior to arrival, and the ability to safely and securely store our luggage after check out.
Nothing to share.
La amabilidad del personal y la limpieza de las facilidades.
Lokalizacja hotelu jest genialna wszędzie na spokojnie można iść na piechotę a jak jest już za gorąco to wrócić i odpocząć. Kuchnia z lodówką jest też ogromnym plusem. Obsługa bardzo miła i pomocna.
Great location and was very quaint.
Big comfortable beds, great location, very friendly and responsive staff
We had a beautiful room balcony suite #205 with a balcony and a separate living area. The building is very pretty insides and out. Great central location, we were able to explore all of all San Juan on foot.
Personal muy amable y perfecta ubicación
La ubicación en pleno centro de San Juan
Great location, clean, comfortable, spacious suite
Would expect a more friendly and warm/welcoming customer service experience at this type of hotel and price point.
The location was fabulous!
Location location
The lobby did not meet the standards of the rest of the hotel
The perfect location in San Juan!! Amazing friendly staff.
Some of the loud street noise could be heard from the room but not too frequent.
Staff was very friendly and welcoming 😊 and did a lot to make you feel comfortable.
It was not the staff’s or hotel’s fault but there was a water shortage in Old San Juan.
Excellent location.
Room wasn't ready at check-in time. I received a complimentary bottle of water for their one hour tardiness. I asked for a one hour late check-out and was denied multiple times. Hotel was in a water conservation location, no prior warning was given so I could prepare (other hotels in the area notified their guests prior to their stay and offered free changes and cancellations). Hotels should have cisterns, this is not a b&b. Main feature of hotel was the rooftop which I found out was closed upon arrival. I find this property is lacking in communication skills and empathy with guests. We had messaged on that same day before check-in and there was no mention of any issues with water or partial facility closures. Also, no smoking allowed on the room's huge terrace. Which was the reason I booked the terrace room.. but maybe that was my mistake.
Location good and staff extremely welcoming and accommodating.
Bathroom was dark. Twin bed squeaked. Roof top bar not open every day.
Excelente ubicación en pleno centro de viejo San Juan
Habitación inicial sin ventanas, instalaciones algo antiguas, hubo un problema con el aire acondicionado
Everything ❤️
The rooms were clean, elegant, and comfortable. Front desk and housekeeping were exceptional. Location was amazing.
There was little noise insulation inside the room. Could hear everything that was happening outside. That was our only complaint, other than that it was perfect.
The location is amazing. You can walk everywhere in Old San Juan. We had the corner terrace room on the third floor which was amazing. I loved how easy to navigate the stairs were right by our room. There is a basic but nice courtyard and lobby bathroom. The person at the front desk is always very helpful and there is someone there 24 hours so coming and going felt very safe.
The parking situation is challenging. I had planned to park in a close lot that the hotel recommends but it was full. There is no designated paid parking spot for hotel guests so you have to find an open parking garage. We used one close but it was charged hourly and over two nights the cost was close to $70. Not bad for an inner city hotel parking I was just bummed my original plan didn’t work.
The location is in the heart of OSJ, the rooms are very large and comfortable, air conditioning was perfect and you can adjust it in your room.
It’s pricey, however for a special occasion it’s worth it.
Great location…loved the rooftop terrace. Room was spacious and clean.
Location was central. I loved having the terrace with a table and chairs to sit on in the evenings.
I don’t understand the whole idea of adding a resort fee. I would not consider this hotel a resort, but maybe this is an American/ Puerto Rican thing I don’t understand because I haven’t experienced this anywhere else.
Location and staff friendliness
Wish roof top was open
Wir waren mit dem Aufenthalt sehr zufrieden. Das Personal hat einen hervorragenden Dienst gemacht. Alle Wünsche wurden sofort erfüllt. Beim nächsten Aufenthalt werden wir wieder bei Ihnen anfragen und an unsere Verwandten und Bekannten weiterempfehlen.

Staff was not accommodating.

We were told we would have two separate bedrooms in our suite and we did not. The hotel staff were rude, more often than not.
The location is excellent. Located in Old San Juan. The hotel staff was friendly and helpful. The rooms were lovely and clean. Good air conditioning.
When I went to adjust the shower head before taking a shower, it came completely off. However, the hotel owner took care of it immediately. He replaced it with another one which worked well. In the middle of the night, a fire alarm went off which was very startling. The alarm may have been faulty. It only stayed on for a moment, but disturbed our sleep.
It was a shame that the rooftop bar was not open during our stay.
the location was excellent, as was the responsiveness of the staff. i had a few questions before arriving and they answered promptly and were very helpful. super helpful on restaurant and salsa dancing recommendations. helpful and attended to me when i couldn't figure out the tv. the AC worked great, good water pressure in the shower, comfy beds and pillows.
Great location, friendly staff, comfortable room.
It was noisy outside our window at night, but I realize that the hotel is in the Old Town tourist area.
Location and overall was great.
Noisy.
Disorganized
Late check in. The room it was not ready
Excelente servicio por parte empleados. Ambiente acogedor, tiene un area donde puedes sentarse y relajarse. La habitación limpia al igual el baño. Lo recomiendo
Todo estuvo bueno
Staff very helpful
No parking. Very difficult to find parking on the street
Cleanliness and location
Encantada con el servicio, el personal muy atento y amable. La habitación muy cómoda y limpia definitivamente volvería a quedarme.
location was good. Walkable to sites and restaurants.
cold water shower. Our quiet room featured loud music, motorcycles, and car alarms ALL NIGHT.
La ubicación, la comodidad, no había nada de ruido en el viejo san Juan hay mucho ritmo
Es un poco costoso pero vale la pena
Excellent location in old San Juan. Small basic hotel under renovation. Very clean and comfortable room.
Everything
Very friendly nice service
A bit noisy. From the street
It’s a good location and a serious restoration.
There is a lot of traffic noise for the rooms at the front of the property. And it lasts well into the night.

Value vrs Product
We did not have breakfast. The room was comfy and the balcony area was very spacious. The staff was great.
The bathroom lighting is not good. Needs to be much brighter. I’ve never met anyone who said “this bathroom has too much light.”
Location, we enjoyed being in old San Juan
The roof top bar was used for a private function the night we were staying, so we couldn’t use it
Lacked electrical outlets. Only found one in entire room.
Mooie kamer met prachtig terras, mét zonnescherm, waardoor je zelfs tijdens tropische regenbuien buiten kan zitten. Keukentje, zitkamer, slaapkamer en badkamer. Leuke (dure) bar op dakterras. Fantastische locatie midden in San Juan, direct naaste kathedraal.
Geen ontbijtmogelijkheid (maar ruim aanbod in directe omgeving). Kamer werd een dag niet geserviced, ook niet nadat ik er om 4 uur een opmerking over had gemaakt. Geen kritiek, maar wel iets om rekening mee te houden: het straatleven in Old San Juan is zéér levendig, dus neem oordoppen mee voor ‘s nachts.
Very cute
We loved how clean and beautiful it was. Great staff and great location. While the roof top restaurant wasnt open, we were allowed to sit up there and take in the view.
That there were no lights on when we sat at the roof top restaurant. We did know it was closed and no food or drinks were being offered which we didn't mind. I just would have liked to have a bit more light when sitting up there in the night time
Location was excellent in the center of Old San Juan, just behind the cathedral - Staff was helpful allowed us to leave our baggage while we took a tour
Nothing - it was a wonderful small hotel
Cleanness
Location
A very noisy place is impossible to sleep. Check in is at 3pm but since I arrived early the person at the front desk told me that if I like an early check in it would be one hundred dollars extra . instead of giving some extra service by let me check in early .I felt that was some kind of extortion
Great location; nice rooftop bar; friendly and helpful staff.
A little noisy.
Excelente lugar con una atención de primera. Super cómodo y limpio. Tienes muchas opciones dentro y fuera del hotel para comidas.
La ubicación sin duda
La cama más pequeña de lo esperado.
Great location, everyone was very nice.
The water situation is less than ideal, but we understand the limitations of the infrastructure.
Központi elhelyezkedés, sétatávolságra van több látnivaló, reggeliző,supermarket. Bérelt autóval nem tudsz parkolni az utcán csak drága fizetős parkolókban.
Hűtőszekrény lehetne a szobákban.
Super friendly staff, perfect location, spacious rooms, great shower, microwave, comfortable.
Momentarily lost water, fire alarms went off on two occasions due to property issues.
Estuvo excelente. En el recibidor son muy eficientes y amables.
No parking
Ubicación, buenas atenciones, limpieza.
