Hotel staff is friendly. Weekend housekeeping wasn’t good. No formal dining area and lounge at property. Getting in and out is a bit hectic due to narrow streets and significant amount of tourists from cruises.

A historical site, conveniently located in the heart of San Juan. Accessible, beautiful grounds, comfortable rooms. Parking is impossible, unless you pay in the parking lot. Staff are now always easy to communicate with; made mistakes with reservations. Breakfast options could be better. Nice views of the town.

Great location, but not worth the money. The property needs maintenance, definitely not as in the video. I had stayed in old historical hotels before were everything was impeccable, this one definitely needs work

Liked: It's charming, great location, room very clean - and renovated-; front desk - excellent service! Didn't like: Menu at the restaurant - limited in terms of variety. It should offer a lighter selection (e.g. quesadillas, a soup, etc.)

Once a nun convent, now a gorgeous hotel with a perfect location in Old San Juan. It was easy to walk around and site see. Wine and cheese offered on the terrace provided a beautiful and relaxing view of the city. Truly enjoyed our stay.
