We had a fantastic stay here. We went for the queen room with the view of the bay. It's not that the view itself was incredible, but being able to see the water over the rooftops felt necessary being in Puerto Rico. The hotel itself is gorgeous with an amazing central courtyard. The rooms were clean and well appointed. The wifi was fantastic with an extender in each room. If I had to complain about anything it would be the hot water. It is TOO HOT, as in peel your skin off too hot (cold or cool water is not an option). One tip, do NOT rent a car. Everything in Old San Juan is very walkable. Parking is expensive and not easy to find (on-street parking is nearly or entirely only for local residents). Rent a car to the rainforest, but use a taxi for anything else. They are always right outside the front door of the hotel.
