I have stayed at this hotel many times during my travels to Puerto Rico. It has always been clean and accommodating. We were checked into a building adjacent to the main hotel on this trip. Within moments, our baggage and bed linens were overrun with tiny roaches. The front desk attendant was very polite and helpful in immediately relocating us to a different room in the main building. The replacement room was very clean and roach free. I will chalk this experience off to an unusual one off and give them the benefit of the doubt.

Very Clean and well maintained though somethings could use updating but it was perfectly fine. Puerto Rico is a very lively island so sounds of roosters and traffic here was not bad, compared to other parts of the island. Not a problem with ear plugs or white noise app. Felt safe - people around but no one causing noises. Would definitely stay again!

we had a short time to find a place to stay at in Hatillo and this was the most accesible to main road we found. Not particularily cheap eventhough our room was not nice per say. Rust in the sinks and bathtub. questionable stains on the walls. Bed was comfortable. We had a mini fridge but no coffee maker or microwave in the room. Only place to get coffee was in the restaurant downstairs which was very busy all the time and barely had time to serve to go orders but the food was good. Staff was very friendly. Our room was mostly to keep our things because we were usually out and about.
