A car would have been more helpful

The hotel is not what one would consider a normal run hotel. There is not desk to speak of. It is not manned. The owners live on property. They are very helpful with your needs. There is a office near the front door and thats where you go for help. If they are not there, there is a buzzer on the front door. There is a side gate that you use to enter and exit the room area. There is a pool but at my time there, they were filling it. Breakfast was included. They offer dish of fruit and a plate of scrambled eggs and fried plantains. If walking, go out past the park and go Left. Within 10 minutes is a small mall with bar/restaurants and on the backside there is a grocery store. Walk 10 more minutes and go across the cross walk, there is a mall with many stores and restaurants there. Buses are available on the main road to go to downtown San Juan. The back of the hotel faces the highway and you do get some noise from that in the room. No more than most hotels.

If you have no other option.

Poorly cleaned room. The pictures online are not a true depiction of the place. If you want to be close to the hotel and not bother with a commute, then it's worth the stay. If not, then there is no need.

No es lo que esperaba

Buscando tranquilidad cerca de la ciudad, sin embargo la habitación contaba con una una ventana para iluminación y ventilación que daban al pasillo del vestíbulo. Sobre decir que tranquilidad no hubo ya que se oía toda la gente pasando, hablando, personal de mantenimiento de un lado para otro, etc... reservé dos noches de las q solo pude usar una para después buscar otro lugar

SCAM.

This was a terrible place! Firstly, it's a home, not a hotel. It's in the middle of a suburban neighborhood. There is no signage. I showed up and the place was CLOSED. Finally a "staff member" in his PJs came out and said his mom was asleep. Urged that we sign in (even though there was literally no one there) and showed us our rooms. When we saw the poor state and discovered that one of the rooms didn't even lock from the outside, we left the keys and booked elsewhere. FURTHER, when I requested a refund for the night that I DIDN'T STAY in the hotel, they rejected the request. Scam hotel.

Expected more

This is a very mediocre hotel for the area, there are much better options for a little bit more money. The facilities are not kept well, there is no parking, it is in a residential area, there is no staff (only the owners in pijamas). It all just feels wrong.

Convenient and clean hotel

This hotel was clean. All we wanted was quick access to the local fun things, clean beds and a hot shower which it had. The WiFi didn't really work for us but many local restaurants had free WiFi so we used it there. For the price we would stay there again. We have four kids and we often have a hard time finding places big enough for all of us. Our room had three queen beds and air conditioning as well.

HOTEL MUY SENCILLO

Los pasajeros llegaron en un vuelo muy noche y por obvias razones llegaron muy tarde al hotel y fueron regañados por las personas porque llegaron muy tarde incluso les gritaron y regañados les dieron la habitación muy sencilla y al día siguiente no había agua caliente para darse una ducha. El personal del hotel les comento que no pasaran por el lobby porque solo era para supervisor, siempre tenían que pasar por la reja para entrar. debido a que el hotel no fue del agrado de una persona (Sr. Arturo García), se vio en la necesidad de salirse, cediendo la habitación a un compañero de trabajo que compartía habitación con otra persona en ese mismo hotel, a lo que el personal del hotel no le gusto y los corrió antes de terminar su estancia.

Falta de Actitud de Servicio

Fue una experiencia no favorable. Al llegar sin estar si era el hotel que había efectivamente separado, el esposo de la encargada (viven ahí mismo), salió molesto indicándome de manera ruda que moviera mi auto, le comenté que solo me aseguraría si era mi hotel, para lo que me di cuenta (una vez yo adentro el hotel), que estaba despertando a mi pareja (que iba domrida en el asiento del copiloto) para que ella moviera el auto. De la misma manera, la señora (encargada), parecía tener problemas de desconfianza en exceso tanto que hasta regañado salimos (es lo último que espero en unas vacaciones). En fin. parecía mucho mas un hostal / pensión que un hotel.
