Parador El Buen Café is in a convenient but definitely non-scenic location. It is directly on busy Route 2 across from Sam’s Club, and is adjacent to a neighborhood of small houses. There is a building across a small side street from the parador which houses the El Buen Cafe restaurant and a cafeteria. We found the staff at this... more

We found this place by chance in '03 and went back in '07. The rooms are immaculately clean. The staff is courteous and helpful. The Cafe across the street is a real taste of PR and the restaurant is an upscale version. The pool looks nice, tho I haven't had time to go into it. Will gladly stay there again... more

This was a fine stop-over stay on our way from the San Juan airport to the southwestern part of the island. We stayed for one night. The room was spacious, clean, and quiet, and appropriately priced.

The staff was great, but they have limited hours for their pool used. As a traveler you are going to spend most of the day moving around and will hope for a place to unwind on the evenings. The Parador itself was very nice but they close the pool at 6PM so if you want to relax by the pool... more

Overall, the Buen Cafe is a simple hotel that is a good place to spend a night or two if you are looking for a place near the Rio Camuy Caves and the Arecibo Observatory. The hotel is right off the highway, which makes it easy to find, but also means that it is not in a scenic location. But... more

We did not intend to stay here, but decided it would be the easiest thing to do after failing to navigate the requirements to secure a camping spot at nearby Rio Abajo. There was plenty of space, the room was clean and pretty quiet considering the busy highway outside, and we enjoyed the pool area. The staff was friendly and... more

This hotel was the perfect place to say for us on the north coast becasue we wanted to visit the telescope one afternoon and the caves the next morning. Its about 30 minutes from the hotel for both. The rooms were clean large and the staff was very accomodating. The restaurant ( cafe) across the street is great for breakfast... more
