Hotel staff is friendly. Weekend housekeeping wasn’t good. No formal dining area and lounge at property. Getting in and out is a bit hectic due to narrow streets and significant amount of tourists from cruises.

Good overall, but could not control air conditioning system from turning off in the middle of the night several times and turning on abruptly. Resting was a challenge for this reason. I love the location, food and service. Only thing I would change is being able to control my own air in the room and parking situation, if you are lucky you get parking in front but if it’s full the hotel offers no parking.

The hotel was beautiful but overbooked. I paid over $700 a night for 2 beds and ended up with one bed and a rollaway. I received a $100 hotel restaurant credit to compensate. The location is good but I was disappointed with the room.

Room a bit small for price point. Also a little rough around the edges. It’s an old historic building so needs some attention. Pool was not really a pool.

This is a beautiful place to stay for a few nights in Old San Juan. There seem to be many events at the property but we did not hear a thing in our room at night. The pool is nice and the wine/cheese hour is lovely. They did not clean our room everyday and that was disappointing, but we had a wonderful stay overall and would go back!
