You'll be hard-pressed to find a better value in Puerto Rico. This is a beautiful, vintage-decorated hotel close to everything in Old San Juan (I like to walk!). The rooms are small, but that's no surprise as it's located in a very old historic building. Rooms were made much smaller back in the day. You get everything you need: TV,... More

My wife and I stayed here the night before our cruise. The hotel is within walking distance of the major attractions in Old San Juan as well as several good restaurants and clubs. The room was small but adequate and well worth the $99 rate. We had plenty of hot water, it did take a bit to figure out that... More

The title says it all, the location of this hotel is the prime reason to stay here. It is walking distance from the major sites in Old San Juan, across the street from the best restaurant (Marmalade) in Old San Juan and a minute walk from the best salsa club. The fact that Lonely Planet choose this hotel as a... More

My boyfriend and I spent 2 nights in this hotel during our visit to San Juan. Thanks to tripadvisor, we were aware that there is no elevator so that was not an issue. The hotel is beautiful and clean, and the staff is very friendly. We stayed in a balcony room on the 2nd floor and the view was great!... More

The location is great. Right in the heart of Old San Juan. They kept the A/C blasting in the lobby, which we appreciated every time we came back to the hotel from the warm outdoors. The receptionist was very nice and gave us some great recommendations about what to see and where to eat. She marked all the places on... More

The room was clean, nice decor, no closet, bathroom sink was cute! The room was Minute! Horrible!!! The included "Continental Breakfast" wow... 2 slices of toast with jam and... More

I just came home from a week long trip to PR, which included a 2 night stay at the CasaBlanca hotel. Overall, I thought the hotel was pretty good, so long as you are aware and okay with a few things. First, I'll start off with the positives: The hotel is in an absolutely perfect location to explore Old San... More

we were cruising on Sunday, so we came in Saturday night and this was the best we could find near the ports. We arrived in the rain, and there were some local characters sitting outside, rather unwilling to move. We nearly had to carry our suitcases in to avoid hitting them. Once in, we were changed from 2nd floor to... More

We stayed one night, Saturday, April 7. I requested 2nd floor, thanks to previous reviews, and also knew to expect a noisy late night crowd. We got little sleep, but knew to expect that in advance. The hotel is in the middle of a vibrant, rocking scene. Know it and deal with it. I did not expect to have a... More
