Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was an enjoyable one. The rooms were spacious and clean, offering a nice view of the bay and cruise ships. However, the view from my room also included a multi-storey car park at the side of the hotel. The breakfast provided was a nice addition to the room.
I got lucky with a room that wouldn't be available till tomorrow, and it had a balcony with a view of the parking lots. It was quieter there, very clean, and had a view of the water, making my stay quite pleasant. Staff were wonderful and charming; they definitely take pride in their job and were very helpful. The location was perfect, right in the heart of old San Juan, ensuring I wouldn't miss a thing and had easy access to restaurants. Though the dining was pretty basic for the price, I could always head to the nearest café across the road for breakfast. Facilities were just what I needed for a comfortable stay.
My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall. The rooms were spacious with good amenities like coffee/tea, bottled water, and toiletries; however, the view overlooking the parking lot was not ideal.
The hotel is exactly like the ones I stayed at 8.5 years ago. The rooms are big, clean, and extremely comfortable, but there is an issue with considering a 14 yr old an adult. The service was super helpful and the atmosphere during breakfast was impressive. The location is one of the best in Old San Juan, convenient for exploring or catching a cruise. The dining options were subpar and expensive. The facilities were great overall.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The location was very good, being perfect to explore Old San Juan, but there were some situations that affected my experience. The rooms, while clean, had unfortunate views of a car park and were too small. The service, however, was extremely helpful and courteous, making my stay more enjoyable.
My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The location was wonderful, just a few minutes walk from El Morro, providing convenience. The service was fantastic, with staff being attentive and knowledgeable. However, the rooms lacked privacy due to thin walls and late availability, and the dining experience was not as good as expected given the high price for breakfast.
The hotel had a fantastic location in Old San Juan, perfect for exploring the historic sites and enjoying the view of the harbor. The rooms were disappointing, with a worn-out feel and lack of necessary amenities. The service, on the other hand, was friendly and helpful. Although the dining options were expensive, the hotel offers a superb experience that is worth the higher price.
The hotel is conveniently located in historical Old San Juan within walking distance to key attractions. The rooms are average, with some noise disturbances from nearby machines and no views, but are well-equipped with Lysol cleaning supplies. The service is hit or miss, with a mix of excellent hospitality and some disappointments. The location is a major plus for exploring the area without needing transportation, despite occasional noise issues at night. The dining experience is overpriced for basic breakfast offerings and limited service. Overall, a decent stay with room for improvement.
