The room was comfortable, clean and cozy. The hotel space was clean and quiet and allowed for a lot of privacy. The location was close and central to everything even with amazing food locations close by in walking distance. The staff were welcoming and attentive and the locals that live in the area were help full and very kind. Would return back here any time i go to Puerto Rico. it's worth every dollar spent. Please support this hotel and business you wont regret it!

I would definitely recommend La buena vida also would 100% stay again if I want to be in Santurce area next time. Staff made my whole stay feel like home as soon as I arrived. Lots of things walking distance but also calling uber/lyft was never super expensive from here either.

Small boutique inn. Our room was spacious and had enough room for the 3 of us. Beds were comfortable and staff was helpful and friendly. Located close to shops, restaurants and the beach. They also had a separate parking lot where I could leave my rental car. Would definitely stay here again, next time I visit PR.
