Not as advertised!

The room was dingy and not clean and had bugs. The key card didn’t work, and the elevator was questionable. We were afraid we were going to get stuck! Neither restaurant was able to accommodate my hungry family, either. We did not stay the night, we left right away.

Do not stay here. Mold all over and noisy.

This hotel is extremely noisy. From the drunks in the hotel to the the constant airline jet blast. The TV did not work. The air condition did not work. The bed was soft and lumpy. They had no hair dryers. The had no toilet paper rods. We had to beg for extra towels. We had no hot water in the morning for our shower. It was totally cold. There is mold all over the bathroom and shower. There was no phone in our room. The front desk staff was rude and acted bothered every time we asked for something.

The worst!

This hotel is simply bad. It is located in an excellent area of San Juan, just steps from the beach and surrounded by restaurants. We were given a room on the third floor, which we reached via a small, dirty, and unsettling elevator. Room: Dirty and small, with hair all over the bathroom. Thanks to the goodwill of Fabiola Adorno, the receptionist, we were upgraded to a Villa . The concept of the new room is good; however, it was still dirty, with hair everywhere, no shampoo, and no hand towels (they also don’t provide beach towels despite charging a "resort fee"—for what???). The bathroom was dirty, with sand in the shower, on the floor, and water leaking out of the shower area. There was sand in the fridge, a shortage of outlets (only one in the room, far from the bedside table), and in the living room, an outlet was coming out of the wall. The TV system was designed to be unusable—three remote controls that were difficult to operate, meaning no TV. I could go on, but I’ll just say this: THIS IS NOT the hotel you want to stay at in Puerto Rico.
