Stayed in 2 bedroom suite for a night. Rooms and lobby were tastefully decorated. Had to leave at 2am so 24hr parking was a must. Walking to nearby parking building seems to be safe. Although it was next to busy streets, the room was surprisingly quiet. 24hr front desk is rare these days. I would choose hotels over Airbnb for any short stays (<3nts) for the reason.

We loved the location and the staff was great. Our only complaint is that some of the others staying there were loud, but that’s not Fortaleza’s fault. They were quick to take care of the issue.

Located in the heart of Old San Juan, walkable to restaurants, bars and shopping. It is clean, good air con and comfortable. The architecture is lovely and colonial, but the furniture and facilites need updating. Would be nice to have colonial style furniture or go modern, what is there now is unattractive, not what was expected having a “Wonderful” rating. The check-in and check-out was easy and friendly service.

The street outside is a little deceiving, but the inside is charming! It was weird that I could hear my neighbors shower and frustrating that I couldn’t turn up the volume on the TV, but the room was clean. The bed was comfortable and inviting. The staff was helpful and cordial. Overall, a good pic.

We arrived late and they were responsive which was great. They wouldn’t extend for late check out so we barely was able to sleep in the room. It’s an old building and it was clean and nice sheets. We couldn’t place toilet paper in the toilet, the water pressure was low, and we saw a water bug being on the first floor. We couldn’t use the kitchen because another family was there boiling eggs in the water pot.

The moment my husband and I enter the property we were hit with a strong odor of mold. We didn’t sleep all night because my husband has allergies and was having trouble breathing. We only booked for one night and left the bed day.

This located in the middle of “old San Juan”, close to the coastline and many tourist attractions. The hotel has spacious suites with full kitchen and two master bedrooms. The building is very old and in slight disrepair. The air conditioning is more like air circulation ☹️.
