We spent one night at the El Canario pre-cruise. Cute little place I had seen on previous trips. Great location in Condado...convenient to the beach, bus system, food (Tijuanas is great) and even a Walgreens for anything you might need. Hotel was clean and served continental breakfast outside. After checking out, they held our luggage for us while we spent... more

Let's keep this brief. This hotel is a shabby place but may be fine for those on a tight budget. We would have had no complaints if it weren't for the fact that on our final evening in Puerto Rico, we returned to our room to find my expensive pair of sunglasses missing from the spot where I had left... more

I was mixing business with pleasure ... I had room to hang nice clothes and air-conditioning to keep everything in good shape, but the rooms are definitely made for the beachgoer/nightlife lover who won't spend too much time in the room. Non-carpet floors allow for no guilt when dragging in sand from the perfect beach around the corner; location is... more

I arrived in San Juan April 15th with no place to stay, and found the El Canarion Inn on Av. Ashford. The receptionist seemed completely uninterested in human contact, I had to ask questions twice to get a response. The room was small and basic, but OK. There is no internet available at this hotel - I write this review... more

The cons far outweigh the pros on this place! We arrived at this hotel exhausted after six and half hours of riding a ferry, several city buses and several gua-guas. This hotel has no elevator and the one front desk employee we saw didn’t offer to help with our luggage, nor did he offer to find someone to help us.... more

I can see no reason to go to this hotel. We paid $140 for a one night stay. The air conditioner in the room did not work, and the floor was so dirty that I had to throw away the socks I wore. They would not come clean. We went to the desk to report that our air conditioner did... more

We stayed here for two nights after a flight from Dominica. We have no complaints but this is definitely a very bare bones hotel. The bathroom is tiny - literally cannot accommodate two comfortably but if you don't plan to spend the day in the room it really isnt a problem. The bed was adequate and the room had a... more

I had booked this hotel for three nights almost a month before arrival--confirmed online. By the way, the hotel has a four-day window prior to arrival for cancellation without penalty. I arrived as agreed only to be told by the desk clerk "Luis" he was sorry, but they were overbooked and had no rooms. His alternative solution was that the... more

Pretty Good!

Based on reviews I had read about this hotel, I wasn't too sure what to think of it. When I got there, it was amazing. The hotel/inn is really nice, a bit small, but nice overall. It has a home-y atmosphere. The rooms are a little small, but unless you plan to be spending a lot of time at the... more
