Nice location. About a 10 min drive from the airport. Less than a 5 min walk to the beach. Lots of eateries and stores within walking distance. I never felt unsafe walking the neighborhood. Rental was nice, clean & affordable. The only drawback was the neighbor’s dog barks sometimes. It’s not a constant thing but if people are highly sensitive, they might be bothered. Some of the locals drive crazy, but thats to be expected. Hardly anybody uses turn signals and some even take red lights. Use caution while driving in P.R. It has nothing to do with the property but just to give you a head’s up. The owner has amazing communication at lighting fast speed. I asked a question through text and received a response within 2 mins. I would stay at this place again if I come back to San Juan Overall grade: A

We arrived at one AM, directions to enter and get keys and park were clear and easy. Parking was only $5 a day. We had a one bedroom, living room area, kitchen area with cups, utensils. Had a little back are to sit if you wanted! When you come out walk two short blocks to a public beach, you can rent chairs and buy cheap delicious drinks from Ramon! Walkable to many local, reasonable places to eat. Had everything we needed! Definitely would stay again!

My partner and I stayed here during our most recent trip to puerto rico. The property is located in a super convenient area being around 10 minutes from the airport & 10 minutes from old san juan. We stayed in the Tulum suite which had a spacious bedroom & living room. The unit was extremely clean. The owner was very friendly, responsive and welcoming. They offered us many recommendations around the island. We loved our stay and will definitely stay here next time we stay in Puerto Rico!!!

The property is very small, old, and outdated. The outlets were sticking out from the walls. The lamp for additional lighting is on the shelf above your head can fall down if you accidentally touch the cord. The only place to sit is pretty much your bed. You cannot take advantage of the deck outside because there is no cover. It is already hot at 7 am and the bench is hardwood and is not comfortable for sitting at all. Got bitten by something one night, and woke up with 30-40 bites all over my body.
