Our stay was exceptional. Even though we were redirected to another hotel the first night, the hotel staff made sure we were probably taking care of. Hotel is super charming, the staff is very helpful, and friendly and the room was clean and comfortable. Overall, a very pleasant stay. A special mention to Antonio at the reception for going above and beyond.

The hotel is in front of the cathedral of San Juan Bautista. It maintains its antiquity being a previous convent at the same time providing modern comforts. One can walk almost everywhere. I recommend the restaurant in the hotel. The food is good. You’ll find the amenities provided by a four star hotel. The staff are very nice and professional.

The property is nice and located in a great area but this is not a luxury hotel or experience at all. We were given a room on the top floor and the elevator was broken the whole time we were there. We also had to carry our own suitcases up the stairs. Lastly, part of why I booked this hotel was because it had a gym but it was not air conditioned and there were no wipes to wipe down equipment. Even when I asked for them, they were never brought down which is disgusting. I wouldn’t stay there again.

The staff was very friendly and responsive when we made requests. The hotel is located in a very convenient location and the best part of the Viejo San Juan. The beds and pillows are comfortable and the room is well suited for a good night sleep. Josantonio the office manager was excellent and provided incredible service!
