Top El Arsenal Hotel Reviews

Armas Hotel

Armas Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"My first time in Puerto Rico and I was told to check out old town San Juan. Out of all the more affordable rooms I saw, this place had some of the better reviews and WOW were they right! Very friendly from the moment you walk in. They give you a map so you know where you are located. They give you some cool activities you can check out around the area or nearby beaches or rainforest. I was sent a message each day asking if I needed anything. My room was clean. They lock the doors at 10pm so only those with a key can get in so I felt extremely safe. It’s so close to some of the best restaurants I’ve ever ate in my life. The beach on both sides is within a ten minute walk. As well as common pickup spots for the excursions and ferry within ten to twenty minutes walking. Bed was extremely comfy, ac was as cold as ice, water was hot. You are in the center of their beautiful culture and you feel it the moment you walk out of the hotel!"
