The property is located at the beginning of the tourism street,which is great ,The guy Carlos at the front desk was very helpful,the pool was open 24hrs,the only thing that was not cool was that puerto rico is going thru a water crisis,so all hotels had limited water hours,and water trucks everywhere pumping water at hotels ,food and night life were awesome nice area close to everything,rooms need to be upgraded but for the price can't complain

The pictures were nothing close to what the room looked like. It was awful. There were 3 of us and we didn’t even fit in the room with our luggage. The beds were disgusting and the bathroom even worse. The one positive was the staff and manager. They were so kind, helpful, and understanding. They couldn’t have been better, truly a class act.
