Eriberto
Not your upscale hotel but it was clean , staff was friendly and if you are doing things around Hatillo you don’t have to drive 1.5 hours to fancier hotels in San Juan
Yadelis
Excelente siempre lo recomiendo .
Julio
Great service and staff would recommend
Susan
The staff was very polite and the villa was clean. The bathtub and wall tile could use updating. The villa did not have kitchen items like plates and pots and pans and there was not an iron. Some items had to be obtained from the front desk. No ice machine on premesis, have to go to their restautant for ice. No in room coffee pot or complimentary coffee. Lots of street noise with motorcycles and cars late into the night and early in the morning.
luis
The staff was excellent and restaurants food was delicious would definitely recommend
Miriam
Excellent staff.

Great people great service
Jose
My husband recently stayed at Buen Café Parador. His room was in one of the village-style little houses rather than the main hotel building.
The first night was difficult because the room was close to the village area, and it was very noisy, making it hard for him to sleep. The next morning, he spoke with the receptionist, who was very helpful and moved him to one of the village houses located toward the back of the property.
After the room change, everything was great. The new room was much quieter, comfortable, and he had a very pleasant stay. We really appreciated how quickly the staff resolved the issue. If you're staying in the village houses and are a light sleeper, I recommend requesting one of the rooms in the back.

En El Buen Cafe no solo la comida, las facilidades, la limpieza, la comodidad y el ambiente son de excelente calidad sino también el trato de sus empleados es uno familiar. Siempre atentos, educados, con una sonrisa y nunca faltan sus buenos días, buenas tardes o buenas noches.
Del 2004 al 2010 me quede tantas veces ahi que perdí la cuenta... ahora regrese y encontré la misma atención y buen trato de entonces. Regreso pronto!!

Exelente en todo...
Dianily
Malo: el baño estaba sucio y la realidad es que la habitación es un motel de baja calidad. El estacionamiento es poco y si no te toca estacionarte en el restaurante.
Bueno: es un resuelve si vas a estar poco tiempo en esa zona; pero no para estancias mayor de 3 días. El personal fue sumamente amable y disponible. El servicio del restaurante es maravilloso así como su comida.

The room was very clean and comfortable. However, the room is also very outdated and the bathtub has rust. The hotel could use some renovating. Also, fix the washers and dryers
Tamara
Me gusta mucho la limpieza del lugar y que es tranquilo. Se oyen los carros de la carretera pero muy bueno.

There is no elevator and we were only informed at check-in. We visited with an elderly individual and an option to move to the ground floor was only offered much later after they saw us struggle but they never followed-through with said offer. I am actually surprised that the property has such excellent reviews especially considering the state of the room we stayed in - definitely in dire need of updating when compared to their rates, Also, showering in ice cold water was not on my list…
Ana
AC ok. The road noise is all night long and the door has glass allowing light into the room all night. It does not seem safe as the door is to the street it should be labelled as a motel.
Colleen
The room was very clean and the beds were comfortable. The pool was nice. Staff was helpful. The restaurant next door was really good!
sandra
It was such a great day. The person was extremely friendly. Kind. The rooms were very clean close to many areas loved our stay
Emily
Staff Was friendly.
Harly
Pueden retirar los aires viejos en el techo de la habitacion, gabetas rotas pueden repararlas o cambiarlas, en cuando al staff, demasiado amables, la comida como siempre 5 estrellas , el precio de estadia muy comodo, la pisina estaba con el PH muy alto , cositas que pueden mejorar pero que volveria a quedarme.

Room needs some updating
Giovani
Yes stove electric
Victor
The staff was very attentive/friendly, the room was very good and clean, for the price you could not go wrong. It has a restaurant with breakfast, lunch and dinner with mostly PuertoRican dishes what we ordered was very good. There’s a pool that we didn’t use but looks clean. I highly recommend this hotel.
Richard
Very clean and refreshing!
Héctor
Great spot for staying in Hatillo
Thomas
It was one-night stopover as we traveled from one side of the island to the other, so we didn’t need much. The hotel is priced about right for what it is, but it’s very basic so as long as you’re good with that and don’t expect much, you’ll be fine. The restaurant is right across the street, but otherwise, it’s very much a stop-off place, not somewhere to stay for more than a night or two.
Ramon
If your looking for a room just to spend the night and explore the town its ok. Im not sure for the rest of the room but they need to level up! El Buen Cafe has a historic name and it should have a better facility.
Moises

Daniel
The place is outdated, hot water ran out, bed frame was moving everywhere. There was a lot of noise from the street next to hotel.
Wayne
clean room,great location wonderful service
William
The staff was not particularly courteous, and the hotel's proximity to a main highway resulted in noticeable noise. Additionally, children were frequently present near the rooms, which affected the overall quietness and my ability to rest. The room provided was also less comfortable than expected.
Kevin
The staff were amazing and the room was super clean and comfortable to stay in.
Emmanuel
Excelente servicio, cuartos limpios y cómodos. Buena estadía. Como complemento, el restaurante Buen Cafe al cruzar la calle on top. Rico desayuno y deliciosos jugos de frutas artesanales.

Jacqueline
Staff was very friendly and helpful.
Jose Alberto
The room needs to be upgraded. Theres no water for 18 hours because of a non funtional water pump.
Wesley
I checked in late at night around 12:00 a.m. Since approximately 3:00 a.m., there has been no water available at the property, and as of now (8:00 a.m.) the issue has not been resolved.
The staff informed me that they do not know exactly what happened, that there is a water system failure, that they contacted the water utility company, and that their water cisterns are not working.
Unfortunately, this means that there have been no essential services available since my arrival, including basic water service for hygiene and restroom use.
Due to the lack of essential services from the moment of check-in, I am requesting a full refund for this stay.
Freddy
Graciasss, muy acogedor y de trato excelente, felicitaciones
