That view of the mountains from Ponce Harbor was my view each morning I woke up on the yacht in March. Love that place

Very nicely restored and was a good choice. Not your typical Ramada Inn for sure.

Hello Bob/Jay
I can understand after a long long day on the water , wanting to just got to your Hotel and a nice shower and comfy bed.
Yes, the Ramada in Ponce is not your typical Ramada inn
I've been there before., I;ve stayed in Ponce several times over the years and always enjoyed my stay there

Hope the weather is nicer today for you
The Fire House( Parque De Bombas) is pretty neat and there are also the coffee plantation just out side the city.
There is also the Serralies(Don Q Rum) Crystal Cross and house above the City to the North. Also the Tibes (Taino Indians) Village in Ponce.
Enjoy your Stay, and be safe the remaining part of the trip .
Thank you
Jim

Bill,
I know what you mean ,, The Pearl of the South as Ponce is called is a neat place to visit and stay.
I lived in Puerto Rico for almost 3 years and loved every minute of it.

Thank you
Jim
