    Elevator was slow and we were on the 6th floor. We only stayed 3 nights.

    We loved the area. Very safe and lots of great restaurants. The bar in the hotel is amazing!! Victor, Antonio and Naomi made us feel right at home. The room was over the top. We highly recommend this hotel.

    The only thing I can say that was bad was the living room and kitchen had a lot of wasted space. They probably could have put another bedroom in there but there really wasn't nothing. I didn't like about this hotel

    The room was beautiful, clean and the staff was very helpful. They got us a taxi that we used the entire stay and everything was great at this hotel

    Not enough time to enjoy everything that they have.

    Everything about the hotel is wonderful, from the artwork to the rooms to the restaurant to the great service and most of them to the romantic artdeco style from the early 1900's.

    We requested a quiet room since we travelled over 23 hours to the island from abroad. We were put in the room right next to the lobby bar/ piano- so Saturday night was very loud for us as the music went late.

    Loved the hotel and staff and location was just the best for seeing family. Everything was well appointed and new. The rooftop is an added bonus with great views.

    Everything was great. The bathrooms are tiny and awkward and the rooms could use more countertop/shelving space. It’s a huge room and decorated nicely but literally no where to sit anything.

    Sooooo cute and artsy and had TONS of personality. I hear it’s recently been renovated and I can tell! The location was perfect. I had a rental car so it made getting around that mi h easier but we were less than a mile from most places we visited.

    This has been, by far, one of my best stays while visiting Puerto Rico over the past years. This boutique hotel is absolutely stunning. Exquisite decoration with lots of attention to detail. The hotel logo is present everywhere in a very elegant way. The rooms are wonderfully decorated and very spacious. Fantastic location - Very centralized. The lobby of the hotel transports you to a past era with precious history elements. I found this gem by accident and I'm so happy I did. Kudos to the staff, specially Alicia, for providing a world class service. A true 5 stars hotel.

    Opportunities to improve: Room was extremely dark, lacking a way to have brighter light when needed. No cable on television to see world or national news. I was able to log on to my own entertainment venues, but I would have appreciated a way to watch news broadcasts in real time in English.

    The staff is exceptional! Every shift, every position! Vincent and Naomi understand humble service and making a guest feel at home in the individual ways each guest prefers to be served. The valets, the housekeeping staff, IT support, maintenance gentleman and other hosts at the reception desk offer friendly stellar service, working through language challenges of Spanish and English. I did not eat in the restaurant so can not comment about the food or that staff, but the lobby bar was attractive (inside and the patio), and live piano on Thursday night was fun and invited social mingling with other guests. The superbly trained staff is this hotel’s greatest asset. Love the art deco European decor!!
