Loved the historical building with some old world charm with rooms being up to date with all amenities. Our room had a squeaky mattress when sitting on the edge of the bed. Also, no hot water in the shower…..but would stay there again!

My family of four just spent 2 days at the Decanter Hotel on the tail end of our 10-day Puerto Rico adventure (Rincon, Culebra, Viejo San Juan). We were so impressed by the convenient and central location of the hotel, along with the spacious, well-appointed, clean rooms. The hotel has terrific character that fits in so well with this amazing town. It is in front of the 2nd oldest church in the Americas, and an easy walk to all key points of Old San Juan. Check-in was easy. There is a great rooftop bar (Coco Old Fashioned = yummy). And they have an amazing coffee machine that I wish I had in my own house. This is definitely a place to strongly consider staying.

Very close to everything in Old San Juan. Only downside is parking access is challenging as the church parking was not available due to Easter weekend activities so we ended up having to return our rental.
