I had a charming stay in the heart of Old San Juan, with a lovely room and a relaxing atmosphere. However, I was disappointed that the rooftop bar was only open on weekends and that the pool area felt a bit worn down. Overall, I'd definitely consider returning for its unique boutique charm.

Rooms

My room was spacious and quaint with a balcony, but it was situated directly below the infinity pool, which made for a noisy night. The bathroom was just mediocre, and there weren’t enough outlets for charging devices.

The rooftop terrace and soaking pool provided great views, but the pool area felt somewhat neglected. I appreciated the cozy common areas, but they could use some sprucing up.

My stay at La Terraza De San Juan was nice, with a stunning location near El Morro and vibrant streets. The staff was friendly, engaging, and made us feel right at home, especially with my son getting to ring the front desk bell. However, the shower had some hot water issues, and the parking situation could be a bit tricky since there's no overnight street parking. Overall, a great experience with some minor hiccups.

I had a lovely stay at La Terraza De San Juan. The location was fantastic for exploring Old San Juan, with everything within walking distance. The hotel has a charming, quaint vibe that felt authentic, but I did notice some quirks due to its age, like the tight spiral staircase and occasional noise from the lobby. Overall, it was a comfortable and clean choice that perfectly matched my desire for local flavor.
