We had an amazing stay even if it was just for the night. The staff was very welcoming and accommodating, we were able to check in early. We asked for dinner recommendations and were given several. Centrally located in el Viejo San Juan definitely recommend staying here as we will again in the future.

Anniversary trip
We had an incredible stay and all of the staff were incredible. We typically do not leave any negative reviews, but the lady that was the night attendant when we checked in said was extremely rude and we did not feel welcomed. Other than that we loved it and would recommend!

My wife and I had a very pleasant stay at this hotel. The staff were very friendly and helpful during our stay. The hotel itself is very beautiful and the architecture gives a very authentic feel to San Juan.
