Embassy Suites by Hilton San Juan Hotel & Casino
The food was good. For breakfast they had omelets with what ever you wanted and they also had pancakes, sausages, potatoes and yogurt. It was a 3 min walk to the beach, the beach water was very warm and clean. The pool was nice and they also had a jacuzzi. The kids were very happy!
