We didn't check in until 1AM but the staff could not have been nicer. We even got complimentary house drinks upon arrival. Room was great, amazing location in the heart of Old San Juan. A rooftop area only for guests. And a code entry system so only hotel guests were around. Would definitely stay here again.

I was very impressed with this hotel. The location couldn’t be better. The staff was super friendly and helpful. Allowing us to store our bags before and after checkout was also a huge bonus. The price was unbeatable for what we got and that was before we knew about the open bar! 10/10 would recommend. If I come back to San Juan, this is where I will stay again.
