This is a clean no nonsense place to stay in historic Old San Juan. For folks that just need a place to sleep, shower and change it is perfect and very inexpensive. I loved no paying resort hotel prices for amenities I won’t use because I am always out seeing the sights. Recommendations for the hotel. The room I was in lacked a soap dish or shelf in the shower. There was no place to put the soap and shampoo. I used the bathroom sink which was conveniently close to the shower door. The beds are high so they also need a chair or bench in each room where guests can sit and put on their shoes. The staff there was excellent!

Staff assisted with every question we had and helped point out great local places to eat. The area was a bit loud at times but to be expected given the location and narrow streets. Had a great time for a quick visit to PR it was a perfect location for those interested in history and culture.

Staff is great! A very convenient location by the Plaza de Armas, Parque de las Palomas, La Capilla del Cristo & Calle Fortaleza. My room was small by choice though, since I was planning to walk the area. Super safe, with plenty of options to dine and admire the 500 year old City. Would go back in a heartbeat!

Well located in Old San Juan. Although the building is probably old, the hotel feels newly refurbished and the room and common spaces were very clean. Our bed was super comfortable and our room had a great balcony looking out toward the square. The decor is white & plain and furnishings are minimal — not a lot of charm but a solid choice for lodging in OSJ.

Traveled with my wife. This is our 5th visit to PR. We stayed in Condado and Isla Verde. We picked this Hotel because it was located in the heart of Old San Juan. If you’re looking for ocean view and bougie rooms this is not for you. This place is impeccably clean, safe and surrounded by culture. Jean the manager along with staff made the stay very welcoming. Met the owner, wonderful person. This historical hotel is in the heart of San Juan. If you’re looking for a clean, safe and economical hotel, we recommend Armas Hotel. Ty Jean for welcoming us with open arms. See you again soon.

Todo perfecto, una sugerencia deberían bajar más la temperatura de los aires acondicionados ya que en la noche hacía calor en la habitación, lo demás le doy 10/10.
