Small boutique inn. Our room was spacious and had enough room for the 3 of us. Beds were comfortable and staff was helpful and friendly. Located close to shops, restaurants and the beach. They also had a separate parking lot where I could leave my rental car. Would definitely stay here again, next time I visit PR.

I had a great stay at this hotel in Puerto Rico. It was quiet, comfortable, and had everything I needed for a smooth trip. The location was super convenient — I was able to get to Old San Juan, Condado Beach, La Placita, and even El Yunque with ease using Ubers. The staff was friendly and helpful, and there were plenty of walkable spots nearby for food and sightseeing. Overall, a solid place to stay if you want both peace and easy access to the island’s best attractions.

The front desk ladies were so lovely (Nicole and Maria I believe). They made me feel comfortable, safe and were so informative on the area! I would love to come back! My only issue was that there should be a shelf inside the showers to hold bath items. But other than that, it was close to everything and I had a great time. Also loved the waters stocked in the fridge!

Great place to stay, clean and friendly staff. Only complaint I have is that the pillows are terribly thin. The property really needs to invest in proper hotel pillows as these ones are obviously cheap.

This place was great for one night. It was close to the airport, clean, self-checking was very easy. The hotel is unique and very pretty. The only thing I would recommend is better pillows and extra bedding.
