San Juan Inn

San Juan Inn

8/10 Good
"The location is amazing, you are right on the mountain! The staff was wonderful and helpful, especially the little lady in the diner. She was swamped, but served everyone quickly and kindly. The facility is definitely starting to show its age, it's clearly been remodeled several times, and the dead bolt for my room was either broken or fake because it spun all the way around."
