We stayed here for two nights while traveling throughout Puerto Rico. I am a "clean freak" and was a little nervous about booking a "Non chain" hotel. We were pleasantly surprised to find this hotel more than met our needs. The location in San Juan can't be beat for beach, restaurants and shopping. The only down side was the extremely... more

We spent the night here before heading out on Carnival Destiny. Late arrival was fine and establishment was clean. For the money, it was ok but very spartan. Be aware that there was no hair dryer even in the office to borrow. It was one of the least expensive hotels we found. We were quite warm in our dorm-like, 2... more

I kept reading great reviews. So I thought I would take a chance for one night. Big mistake. When I got there I was hugely disappointed. The place was dumpy. The elevator could barely fit a small child. The rooms were nasty. I didn't even attempt to go in the breakfast room, although other people that stayed there said it... more

There were 5 of us...3 in one room and 2 in the other. We stayed at this hotel before our Cruise. It was a tiny tiny room but we were only in Puerto Rico for 2nights/2days. The only time we were at the hotel was to change and sleep. We were on a tight budget and this certainly helped us... more

We stayed at El Canario By the Sea from Feb 13th -20th. MY brother had stayed at this hotel before. He really liked it, said its nothing fancy, but it is clean & close to the beach. I was alittle concerned about the hotel-no pool etc.,but when we arrived I was very pleased, first with the location (just steps away... more

My partner and I stayed at El Canario by the Sea for the first time in 2004. We came back this year with my sister and brother-in-law and shared room 300 on the third floor. It is a very clean and basic hotel that cannot be beat. The location is excellent: Steps to the beach and Ashford Avenue (a Walgreens... more

We stayed here for one night before moving to the Marriott. The stay was fine considering that we were sightseeing in Old San Juan for the day and then going to the beach. Dont rent this hotel if you plan on relaxing in it because there's no view of the beach/ocean, very little light comes in and its behind a... more

Stayed there three days with a friend and everything was fine until the last day. Our toilet did not flush and we contacted the person at the front desk who told us to go get the plunger across the hallway. We walked across the hallway and didn't find a plunger. We told the person at the front desk this and... more
