The hotel is perfectly situated in the heart of Old San Juan, making it super convenient to explore the area. My room was clean and offered a decent level of comfort, though it could use a little updating for a modern feel. The dining, especially breakfast, was a bit underwhelming, as I expected a wider variety. Overall, the service was adequate, but I did have a few hiccups. Still, I felt it was a good value for the location and amenities offered.

The rooms were quite spacious and comfortable, although a tad outdated. The service was friendly, and I appreciated the help with tickets for local attractions. I do wish there were more dining options available, as breakfast was a bit limited. Overall, it felt like a solid value for what I paid, but the room decor could use some refreshing.

I had a pleasant stay at this hotel, which boasts clean and comfortable accommodations. The location is truly unbeatable, right in the heart of Old San Juan and close to everything. However, the dining experience left something to be desired, particularly in terms of breakfast variety. The facilities were nice, but a few enhancements could push the experience over the top.
