This wasn’t a room to sleep in, but an immersive experience. In a city built in 1521, this property feels like one of the oldest. The character of The Gallery was one for lifetime memories. The staff were wonderful and there are many live-in parrots. The collection of art is better than a lot of museums. Just truly a special place.

The Gallery Inn is great, fun, music, staff, guests. Expedia/Hotel.com isn’t. Paid for a superior room, not a standard. Bait and switch… and their phones cut out. Can’t reach. Never again, any Expedia owned booker.

The hotel is in a state of disarray like ive never seen before. Garbage in the front of the hotel, staff didnt know what they were doing, had to walk a half mile to park with luggage, when , if told , i could have just dropped off. Coffee was hit or miss...Every where i looked was dirty. Be careful of stairs theyre half broken, total hazard. The hotel seems to be a has been place to be, which is a shame because if taken care of properly it could be a charming place. Highly disappointed

The location was great in old San Juan, the staff were pleasant, the owner was very nice, the upstairs bar was busy and the downstairs bar was great! The musicians were really good as well, the downside was the pool was closed, the music across from the hotel in La Perla played all night the music permeated throughout our 2 rooms all night!

Stayed for 3 nights and 4 days. The room was not cleaned during my whole stay. The bed sheets were dirty upon my arrival, there was not hot water, and my room was full of mosquitos. I was excited to go back after my last stayed over 10 years ago but the experience was totally different this time.

Good-The room=clean. Bed=comfortable. Bathroom=across the hall and private. The hotel was a unique experience. Right across from the water. Bad-daytime desk attendant was very rude and acted like i was bothering her(for ice). The worst was the steps into and around the hotel. They are breakimg apart and uneven. Making it very difficult to walk up and down. If you have even the slightest handicap(even a sprained ankle) i would NOT book this hotel.

We loved our stay at The Gallery Inn. Our room was clean with a great view of the Ocean. The staff was very attentive and helpful. The food and drinks prepared on site were excellent. The live music in the evening and interesting nature of the space will ensure that we return here when we come back to Puerto Rico.

We were very pleased to have discovered The Gallery Inn. It is the most fun and unusual place we have ever stayed. Every night there is a professional piano performance; the night we were there Dave Hull played- he was great, as was the second performer. The Inn's owner, Jan, sang along, while her pet parrot danced on the grand piano, whistling to the music. It was extraordinary. The Inn is filled with artwork that Jan has created over her long career. The staff was really nice too. We hope to return.

This is one of the most amazing boutique hotels I’ve been to. The history, the stories, the space, the birds! It’s like walking through a museum. The room I was in was amazing: big, original doors and window doors, four-post bed, literally WC… just lovely. Highly recommend. The location is amazing. The rooftop bar has a great view. Rests and everything within walking distance.

This Inn has real artsy vibe. Lots of Art, Lots of Music. Kind of an “old world feel.” Some of the rooms are better than others. Accessibility is an issue here, if you can’t do stairs or they are difficult for you.

Maneuvering all the steep and difficult stairways was horrible. The rooms were in ill repair. The hot water didn’t last more than 10 min. There was a mysterious hole in the ceiling above the toilet. The floors were filthy. Good location but that was it!

The toilet is clogged and I spent 30 minutes and could not fix it. I asked the front desk to give me a bottle of DRANO, but he said people in the maintenance department are gone for the night. We are going to get up at 6 am and leave at 7 am and most likely we will not be able to use the toilet.
