The hotel is in a great location in Old San Juan. Everything is close by and within walking distance. The only downside was the parking. There is no street parking available and no hotel parking. Luckily there was a valet parking lot in front of the hotel but spots are limited so there is no guarantee that you can get a spot.

Great stay in Old San Juan

I stayed in a room with a terrace and it was lovely. I was worried that the Murphy bed might be uncomfortable, but it was very comfortable! The terrace was huge and with lots of places to sit and some shade. The room was larger than I expected, very clean and comfortable with a/c, a ceiling fan, a great closet (with lots of hangers) and very functional bathroom. The location of the hotel is excellent - a short walk to everything in Old San Juan, and each staff member I had contact with was extremely friendly and helpful. The building itself is also very beautiful. I would absolutely recommend staying at the Decanter, it was better than I expected and was a great stay in Old San Juan!

My fam and I weren’t able to make it to Puerto Rico due to a huge storm that delayed all flights till the next day. I explained to the hotel and ask for a refund. Furthermore Expedia asked for a refund on my behalf and they also said no. Although it was completely out of my control the hotel administration took my money and said there was no refund allowed. The least they could’ve done was give me a credit for a different day.
