Ponce Plaza Hotel & Casino
Room by the street. Very loud music from passing cars at all hours of the night.

Meliá Century Hotel Ponce
Rooms need to be more welcoming, no phone to communicate with front desk, bathroom curtains are dirty and there’s no hot water. When it rains the lobby and sitting area gets all wet. This hotel looks nothing like the photos. The only thing good is that it’s in a good area.
