Room was small but had everything you could need. We were not there to hang in the room so it was not an issue. The patio made it feel bigger. We enjoyed morning coffee sitting there. The bird aviary below balcony was a nice addition to the lovely building. The room was very clean and in a great location. Would definitely stay again

Location was perfect. In the old San Juan everything was walkable. Lots of restaurants, cafes, bars, shopping and tourist/must see spots. We stayed in the Patio room, nice ambience, room space ok, bed comfortable, there was fridge and A/C working great. The room was clean, tv works, bathroom/shower the hot water took awhile especially for early shower but there was hot water. Communication with the owner great, responded timely.
