Pros:

The hotel was very nice. The rooms were comfortable. The beds were a little hard, but were a nice size. The location is really great. It is close to everything San Juan.

Cons:

I would have liked to been able to use an elevator to get up to the second floor. I wish that the breakfast went until 10pm.
