Luxury in San Juan
We loved the hotel and the neighborhood it was in. Miramar is not a tourist haven, it is San Juan with shops and restaurants. The hotel was unique with a very good restaurant, a beautiful bar and lounge and a friendly staff. Wi.Fi was a bit sporadic and a dresser in the rooms would not hurt, but we would go back in a minute.
