Perfect location and no problems
My wife and I (both in our 50's) rented this property for a 9-day stay. The location is perfect, an elevator ride and 100 steps to a beautiful beach, walking distance to several restaurants, Walgreens, excellent grocery (10 min), and extremely convenient to all expressways. Motel6 quality accommodations, but extremely clean and exactly as advertised. Small, but perfectly adequate for a couple. Comes with beach chairs and a grocery cart! 5 min walk to bus stop, but bus schedules are, to put it charitably, erratic, esp weekends.
Secure parking on site. We rented a car and took three day trips: El Yunque/Luquillo, Ponce/Caguas, Rio Camuy caverns/Arecibo observatory. All very interesting, for those who want to see PR beyond San Juan, which we recommend.
Nearby restaurants: try Metropol, PiuBello, Lupi's. Plato is overpriced. PR cuisine is heavy, not very imaginatively seasoned. Service is way good or way bad - little middle ground. But hey, it was in the 80s every day, with just enough rain to make us remember what it was. Beats snow just about any time!
Bottom line, chat people up on the beach about what they're paying to stay in the beachfront hotels, and you will recognize the extraordinary value in this rental!
