“In Old San Juan, this restored 19th-century building places guests steps away from key cultural attractions. I especially like the rooftop bar that offers stunning city views, and the uniquely decorated suites, some of which include private terraces. It's a solid choice for travelers wanting a historic experience with modern comforts.”
