10/10 Excellent

The total atmosphere was quite pleasant. The hours of operation can be a bit more extensive. The bar and pool close to early. The continental breakfast could include more protein such as hard boiled eggs perhaps.

Everything about this hotel is so charming. The hotel is in a great area walking distance from many delicious restaurants. The area is not overly touristy. We loved the decor from the movement we walked in and the staff was wonderful. We stayed in a junior suite and it was ideal for my husband and I. I would recommend this property and will be staying here again.

10/10 Excellent

Stayed at this property for 3 nights and we had fantastic experience. Don Rafa’s Boutique Hotel exceeded my expectations. From the friendly staff to the hotel’s cleanliness, everything was phenomenal. This hotel is beautiful, the decor and the ambience is very cozy. We had a junior suite and the room was very spacious for the 2 of us. The room had a decent-sized fridge that came in handy to store leftovers from the restaurants we explored, as well as to keep our water bottles nice and cool. The location was perfect. We went for the Bad Bunny concert and this hotel was literally a 10 minute drive from el Coliseo José Miguel Agrelot. It is also located 10 minutes away from Old San Juan and like 6-7 minutes away from Distrito T-Mobile. All in all I highly recommend this hotel for anybody looking for well-located, cozy and private hotel that won’t put a hole in your pocket. We will definitely be back!
