Very courteous staff. Perfect location in Old San Juan. Beautiful restoration from hurricane damage. Rooftop pool is a gem. Car required to get to the beach, but parking is free.

Joan, United States of America

Loved staying in such a historic building with a great view. The location is excellent, the staff friendly and it’s really special to reside within the walls of history. I also loved their evening wine on the deck bonus, a great way to meet other guests!

In particular, I needed a Dr and the front desk had one in my room on an early Sunday!
