Great little boutique hotel. The only downside was no lift. Perfect for what we needed! Great little find.

The room is nice and the staff is very friendly. Only thing I would change is the quality of the pillows. The pillows are very hard and makes it difficult to sleep

We arrived late at night and it was difficult to find parking. It was our first time in San Juan and intimidating. I felt very safe inside the hotel.

I really like this hotel. I was in room 305. Take note there isn't any elevators but only 4 floors..if that's deciding factor for you. My room was great for me as a solo traveler. Staff were really nice even though I didn't personally have much interaction with them but when I happened to walk by they were chatting pleasantly with guest. There's a food truck lot down the street with a wide variety of food and drinks and other food available (subway, Domino's, etc). Lots of stuff in walking distance even the La Placita hot spot...a 20 minute walk. No fridge or coffee maker, which wasn't a big deal to me; not sure if they're in the bigger rooms but just an fyi. There is a rooftop area and gym equipment for those who want it, as well as an ice maker...just the right size. Don't go trying to fill up your Yetti fishing cooler. There is complimentary coffee and tea in the lobby and you can buy a few last minute items like phone chargers, beach towels rentals, etc.But there is a pharmacy about a block down the road. Lots of stuff you can walk to if you don't mind getting your steps in but of course you can Uber everywhere. I would definitely stay here again, would definitely recommend for the solo traveler or those wanting to avoid the big chains and having to pay resort fees.

Perfect. It was very nice inside the building. It was easy to find. The only inconvenience was finding parking. The staff sent me a text message with check-in information. However, they never answered the following questions regarding parking. Nonetheless, I did truly like the hotel. It smelled super clean. Everything was nicely organized. I would stay again. p.s. Loved the two European-style company cars up front.
