Great location and very clean

Right in the heart of Old San Juan. It was great for a couple night stay and I would stay there again. The building is old like everything in Old San Juan so don't expect great water pressure or a large bathroom, or an elevator but it was very comfortable and very clean. We stayed in one of the rooms overlooking the street on the 3rd floor which was cool for us because we didn't mind the stairs. The rooftop patio was a bonus and we hung out there for a bit one night. The noise from the trash trucks at night was comical because it seemed like they must've come by a dozen times. How many times do you need to empty the same dumpster in one night? Great coffee shop across the street and its a huge bonus to be able to walk everywhere without the hassle of parking and driving around.

I've had four days of sleepless nights because of the noise from the street below us. The night life is alive on the street below us with blaring music, cars driving by with loud base, people's loud or shouting conversations. You name it, it happens every single night until 3 or 4 am. It's so frustrating!!! If I had known about the noise, I wouldn't have stayed here. I wouldn't recommend this place unless you're a heavy sleeper & can ignore the noise. Also, there's no staff to complain to. Yesterday we had to help an elderly couple with their big and heavy luggages up to the 2nd floor because there's no elevator nor staff to help them.

Very unique atmosphere and close to shops and restaurants. It also has a neat area in the roof to eat a nice dinner with a bottle of wine. Clean, but be aware that there is busy street noise.

It’s definitely not the most quiet location, but no one visits OSJ for the quiet! The walkability, stylish decor, and beautiful balcony was well Worth the price of the room. The bed is TINY though, definitely not suitable for two people.

Great hotel, don’t count on luggage storage

Very nice hotel in a great area. Warning to those planning to leave luggage in storage the day you check out— we were leaving on a Sunday and they told us as we were dropping our bags that we had to be back by 3pm to get them. It really cut our last day short! We had a late evening flight and ended up stuck waiting for the second half of the day instead of exploring. I know this isn’t the hotel’s responsibility but would have been good to know beforehand as we would have booked elsewhere

We booked Navona Suites for a quick overnight stay in Old San Juan. Couldn’t have been happier with this gem. Clean, friendly staff and everything that you need. Great open spaces on each floor including a beautiful rooftop. Would stay there again in a heartbeat.
