Honestly for the location and price you can’t beat it. Your private bathroom being across your room took getting used to but it wasn’t that bad.

The room where we stayed could have brighter lights. The room can be cleaner, especially under the bed, it was full of dust. The hotel is in a good location, easy to walk to the beach and restaurants. The staff were very nice and helpful.

The staff was nice and the property was quiet. The only thing I would complain about is the rooms in person don’t match the pictures. The room was still nice just not what we were expecting.

My significant other and I spent Easter weekend here and we loved it. Rooms were nice and clean, AC was awesome and there was warm water. The parking situation was somewhat an issue. But we got the hang of it, just find parking somewhere on the street with white paint. Thank you La Vida Buena Inn for making our vacation comfortable. We Love Puerto Rico!! 🇵🇷 💕
