We stayed at the Quality Inn El Portal for four days during our Puerto Rico trip in February 2012. It's a clean, confortable, mid-range hotel in the Condado area that is very convenient to restaurants and the beach. We enjoyed the fresh pastries served for breakfast each morning as part of the continental breakfast on the hotel's roof. (Breakfast also... More

I didn't plan to stay in this hotel during my stay to San Juan, but my experience at the previous hotel was so incredibly horrible I booked a room here the next day. The staff is extremely nice, the view of the sea/El Condado from the roof-top during breakfast was amazing, the beds were comfortable AND CLEAN. It's an older... More

Very conveniently located in Condado. 3 short blocks to beach, tons of restaurants nearby. Right down the street from the Walgreens for various supplies, including wine. Wifi in the room. Bus on Ashford to Viejo San Juan is very easy but one time returning the driver seemed to disappear for hours at the terminal in Viejo San Juan, aggravating a... More

I seem to "win" this place a lot when I do a Priceline-Name-Your-Own-Price deal...yes, the hallways could use remodeling but it's a nice low-key quiet spot in the middle of EVERY place you'd want to go in San Juan! Great trendy upscale pizza spot just opened next door! It doesn't have a pool but the beach is close by! More

Very courteous and helpful staff, close to Condado. Our room was quiet and clean ( 7th floor) - the only noise was in the morning when they started to get ready for breakfast overhead. One caveat- very little hotel parking. We had a rental car and arrived early and did get a spot. More
