The Puerto Rican experience
First time renting in Old San Juan, if you want to experience what life in Puerto Rico is like for the locals, this is it. Don’t expect a luxury resort style stay, it’s an old building but decent. All the bars, shops, and restaurants are within walking distance. It’s not a five star but it’s a local experience if you’re ok with experiencing what life is on the island.

Great location. Taxi had a hard time finding it as there isn’t an obvious sign. Room was smaller but fine. AC couldn’t go below 70 and was still pretty warm in there. We had no exterior windows. We were next to front desk. Very loud when ppl came back to hotel and going to their rooms. No sound proofing at all. Construction during the day.

I asked the front desk on two different days to have the room cleaned and it wasn't done.
The room barely fit a queen size bed. When I inquire if all the rooms were that small I was told that only that one. Also, that that room was the one given to people who book through hotels.com
I saw two roaches inside the microwave.
The front desk was overall friendly and the location is good.

Not luxury, very practical.
This is an older building, which should be expected in old town San Juan. This is not a luxury hotel. It has a limitations of an older building, including few outlets, no windows in our room, not a lot of amenities. For a one night stay prior to a cruise, it is probably perfect. Do not bother getting a taxi to the Cruise port, anyone with reasonable health can easily walk and save the taxi. It is also within easy walking distance of all the tourist sites in the old city.

Worst place ever
Rooms too small with no windows it is like a prison cell. Will not stay there even if it was free. Horrible experience. Refused to check in and left the hotel. Be wear. Pictures had nothing to do with reality.

Location was very convenient. However the room was extremely small with no space even for large luggage. (10x10) If you take a shower be careful as the entire bathroom floor gets wet.
