Really good Stay with Great Amenities
seamless check-in rooftop pool excellent service friendly neighborhood
My check-in was seamless, even during peak season, I found the staff to be very efficient. The rooftop pool offered excellent service and a great atmosphere (i really enjoyed the cocktails). I appreciated that the location of the accommodation is in the friendly Barceloneta neighborhood. I would definitely recommend this accommodation to other travellers.
I noticed that drinks inside the hotel were rather pricey, perhaps a wider range of affordable options could be beneficial.

The breakfast buffet offered a wide variety of natural options, ensuring there was something for everyone. The restaurant staff were very efficient with attending to all patrons. The rooftop restaurant combined delicious food with fine views of the sea and beach.

The rooftop pool area is well kept and provides a great space to relax with bar service available. The hotel offers a heated pool on the upper level, awesome for comfortable swims, even when the weather is cooler. The hotel smells fresh.
Rooms

The room was well-sized and featured a modern, classic decor. I found the beds very comfortable with soft pillows for a restful sleep (i slept like a log!). The room had elegant and fancy decor.
