La Terraza de San Juan
The staff was wonderful and the location was great for seeing the city... The hotel and room were clean and well kept. We were on the 3rd floor and the hot water took a couple of minutes to get there but it did arrive... The rooftop was great... Very relaxing... It's a nice place to stay.

Hyatt Vacation Club at Hacienda del Mar, Dorado
Our room was wonderful, full kitchen so we could grocery shop for our stay. I do wish they had more options for food as they only had 1 restaurant. Food was really good just the same. I would recommend this hotel it was very clean and staff were very attentive.
