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.

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.
