The location is amazing and in walking distance to all the major sights of Old San Juan. We had the tropical room which was decorated nicely, was extremely clean & very quaint. We will definitely stay here again in the future!

El edificio le hace falta mantenimiento. Y la presentación no es la mejor. Le falta limpieza a los pasillos.

Great place to stay! Wonderful location, walking distance to all of old San Juan. They were under construction in some of the place. Looks like some beautiful upgrades coming. We look forward to returning to see them completed.

Location is perfect, great security. The building and the rooms need a good cleaning. Lots of fingerprints and dirt on doors and walls. Very basic room. Bed was comfortable. Nowhere to lounge while waiting for our room. Dont respond to emails but good communication by phone call.
