Great experience for our family of 5

Excellent service and we enjoyed staying on the property. Pool is more off sitting pool not for swimming. Beach access is near by as well as a grocery just a couple doors down. Plenty of restaurants nearby.
David, 4-night trip

San Juan Gem

This was a girlfriends trip to San Juan and everyone's first visit. We all wanted our own spaces but have a communal space. I was looking for an Airbnb as a lower cost alternative to separate rooms at a hotel on Condado beach. The Don Rafa was quaint and just as beautiful as the pictures. It isblocated in the western side of Miramar district and a 15 min walk to Condado and a variety of restaurants were next door or a short walk. A grocery was around the corner so we were well stocked. The staff were incredibly helful and frinedly. It was a short Uber ride to old San Juan. I would definitely consider going back for another stay.

We loved staying here! Everyone was so nice, and even according to the locals it was safe to walk from the hotel to near by areas. We are very active and found it convenient to walk to Old San Juan from here and back. Helps with all the eating and drinking! 10/10 recomendé this hotel. Will be staying again!

Not somewhere to stay.

Very noisy dark hotel room (201) beside reception and the bar. Plant roaring all day and night outside the the room and no daylight. Breakfast poor, cats walking around when having breakfast. Bar service terrible and a cheap bell at reception to get the staff out from the back.
