I don’t recommend this hotel. Although they are trying to preserve the architectural style. The building needs more maintenance, specifically the bathrooms. The front desk does not maintain a master key to open the rooms in case of an emergency. They had to break my locks to access my room and change it the next day. I was asked to leave my room open the entire day. Incredible. Just not acceptable. They must have security standards for emergencies situations. No good hotel. Go to another place.

Hotel Stay

Hotel stay was very good. Original room was changed due to the room # 125 not locking from the inside and had to be changed to another room # 121.. The Agent checked the door and gave us another room. She was very accommodating and we appreciated the service.

Me hospedé un fin de semana largo (sábado a lunes feriado) con mi bebé de 1 año. El lobby y las áreas comunes como la piscina son bonitas y la ubicación es excelente, justo en el pueblo de Ponce con varios restaurantes buenos cerca. Las camas también fueron cómodas. El hotel necesita urgentemente una remodelación. El cuarto estaba en malas condiciones: no había agua caliente en la ducha. La ducha estaba dañada, el agua con mucha presión desprendía la pintura. El elevador es viejo, sin botón funcional (hay que usar un bolígrafo para oprimirlo). Las puertas abren solo con llave, sin cerradura adicional y mi bebé podía abrirla por lo que tuve que bloquearla con la maleta. Las cortinas dejan pasar la luz del pasillo toda la noche. Solo había un zafacón en todo el cuarto; la iluminación era pésima y las paredes tenían grietas. Los muebles y facilidades estaban viejos o dañados (gavetas que no abren bien, marco de cama roto, televisor anticuado). El servicio de habitación fue lo peor: solicité recogido de basura y nunca lo hicieron, tuve que bajar yo misma el zafacón al lobby. No había suficientes sábanas ni toallas. Cuando pedí, me dijeron que debía llevar las toallas usadas al front desk para que me dieran nuevas, además prometieron llevar sábanas pero nunca lo hicieron.

Terrible experience. Properly is falling apart badly. Furniture is in pieces, no hot (nor even warm) water, bed mattress has a gigantic hole in the middle, hallway smoke detector battery beeping all night, no blockout curtains and last but not least, housekeeping lady knocking on the door (like she’s serving an arrest warrant) just to confirm if we were still in the room. Never again and will not recommend this hotel to anyone.

This hotel is in terrible condition and should not even be open to guests. The building is extremely old, dirty, and clearly neglected. The pool was filthy, cloudy, and clearly not cleaned in days. Staff didn’t care at all. Total waste of money — never staying here again.
