Near the central square, this hotel is both comfortable and economical. A stairway off the large 1940s-era lobby leads to clean rooms with wrought-iron headboards and other furnishings. Those on the front of the building have balconies with wooden shutter-style doors. The rooms vary widely in size (Room 3 is one of the largest), so ask to see a few before you decide. The friendly staff makes up for the lack of amenities. The hotel has no restaurant, but there are plenty of options in the neighborhood.

This hotel is the only place I would recommend in Ponce. It doesn't have many ammenities, but you don't need that here. If you prefer more ammenities, definitely don't go to Ponce. Its not a very nice place. It was our last stop after a week in PR and most definitely our least enjoyable. The hotel has beatiful marble interiors with fantastic Spanish doors to the balconies. While you're on the balcony, you can enjoy the sirens, blaring music from people "cruising" (because there is absolutely nothing else to do there), and people yelling. I rated the hotel well for what it is, but Ponce is a 1!
