Great stay
Great stay. Front desk people were frie dly, and suggested restaurants nearby. The place is great and smells of essential oils. Very close to Centro de Bellas artes, and to Kaiju, an amazing Japanese fusion restaurant nearby.

The room is nice and the staff is very friendly. Only thing I would change is the quality of the pillows. The pillows are very hard and makes it difficult to sleep

The hotel accommodation was beyond our expectation. The Front Desk Clerk, Franny was extremely courteous and professional. Our interaction with her allowed us to have a memorable experience on our first visit to Puerto Rico. She is truly an asset to The Looking Glass Hotel and its customers. I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone who wants to enjoy the local attractions and restaurants.
