beautiful BUT”

The hotel building looked wonderful. The people are great. However, there was a cockroach that crawled across the dresser. When I called guest services on the phone at about 7 pm there was no answer. It was quite stressful. Up until that time, I was going to return to PR to stay at the El Convento. Now, of course, I can not. I did write an email to the person who said they were the manager explaining the situation. They also tried to charge my credit card twice for the same room. Go I and look around though, it is just beautiful.
