Really good spot for the price!! Open bar room had an outdoor spot with some hot tub action so it’s cool and it’s in the heart of old San Juan. No elevator so you might have to walk to the 4th floor so keep that in mind but staff is extremely helpful and friendly would and will stay again

Will definitely be staying here anytime in San Juan area. The rooms were a little small but their staff was amazing and helped to our every need. And of course their open bar was a plus too.

This was such a find! Perfect location in Old San Juan, clean, nice rooms, great roof deck, amazing open bar and best part? The staff! Cristian at the front desk and Juan at the bar, in particular. So friendly, hospitable, knowledgeable and helpful! They make you feel like family! My go-to hotel in Old SJ for sure. Loved it!

Luis and everyone else was really helpful and accommodating towards me and my fiances requests. Its a nice walkable area where if you rent a car except for driving to be no fun at times since its everyone going right when they see an opening and a bit of hetic driving. Overall the stay was nice and the views were amazing. The views looked good every where you could see from buildings, the water, trees, animals, and so on. They even give you suggestions on place to go as suggestions. As well they give you a spot to a parking garage where they give you a voucher to reduce cost if you are renting a car. - Sephiorth Rivera

This is one of the loveliest properties I have stayed in. The adults-only, boutique hotel concept will exceed your expectations both in accommodations and service. The staff is the finest representation of authentic Boricua warmth and care. I am very proud to support this independently owned establishment and cannot wait to schedule my next visit. ¡Saludos Fraternales!
