Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The staff were very hospitable. This is a unique and authentic Viejo San Juan property. I arrived after midnight on a Thursday after a long cab ride from the airport. There was a party in the streets which slowed my taxis progress. Promptly at 1 or 2 am everything became quiet and I slept soundly in the cozy loft apartment. In the morning the lovely balcony was open and I met my kind host. This isn't the Ritz. If that's your vibe look elsewhere, but if you like an artsy beautiful space and a great experience you’ll be right at home. Great value too!

Great central location. Safe area. Nice balcony. Host was kind and responsive. Because it was surrounded by bars it was very loud and the walls are thin so couldn’t sleep the best. Maybe bring earplugs especially if you’re staying on the weekend.

Disliked: Amenities
Communication was not good. I had to reach out on the day of my stay. I did not receive a text nor an email about instructions or anything. I did not get the room that I paid for. I paid for a deluxe double room but I got probably the smallest room for me, my wife and two daughters. It's not a good place to stay with family. It's a good room to stay if your single and ready to mingle with good night life.

Location was excellent; walking distance to historic fort, great restaurants, bars & shopping. Very clean. Very loud at night due to proximity to bars but we knew that when we booked it. Earplugs make it easier to sleep. Great communication with owner, very responsive to questions and provided great local recommendations. Stairs were steep to get to upstairs loft but if able bodied not a problem at all. Would stay again!

The place is really good to be honest, just no TV and no kitchen use that bother me. Also, I didn’t like the fact that there was no washing machine there, if they could improve on those the place you be perfect in my view. But overall it was a good place to stay.

Perfect for the right customers

A wise man once said, READ THE DESCRIPTION. This is a basic hotel in a very old building. It is not for everyone. Pros:very clean, great location with lots of dining and drinks options, good air conditioning, communicative host Cons: the neighborhood is very loud. Music late into the night, steep stairs to second floor.

Words can’t begin to express the wonderful experience I had here. As this was a business trip the whole time felt like this was a much needed getaway. As I like vintage stays this was right up my alley so much history and culture, So much to explore and the mini balcony great touch, I am definitely coming back here, not far from beach either.

Great, as advertised

Very old building in the heart of old San Juan. Place was exactly as pictures showed. Clean, well equipped. Super hot water. Had towels, bedding, shampoo and soap. The place was perfect for us. The host was extremely helpful and replied to messages immediately. Self check-in and check-out was very easy. Noisy at night, yes, but we knew that. It was actually entertaining sitting on the balcony watching the bar scene action across the street from us. Would definitely stay here again.

Liked: Amenities
Wonderful and excellent place. It’s in the heart of all things to do, and close to many culinary places to experience. And the hiking, walking around is superb, if you enjoy walking uphill and downhill. I’ve read reviews about the noise levels. It’s the heart of party central Old San Juan: it’s music, not noise. Trotamundos is walking distance to El Morro, El Parque de las Palomas (pigeon park) historic arquiture, and lots of history about Puerto Rico. Trotamundos is a place I will stay at every time I visit Old San Juan, as long as they have all the nights available that I need. Very clean room, mini fridge, small window in the room I booked, nice size bathroom and shower BUT the water presser is amazing, my showers were longer than take at home because the water pressure was super strong, perfect temperature, and PERFECT! I rate Trotamundos 10 on a scale of 0-10. Highly recommend.

Is my second time staying in this cute place and im happy about it. Walkable and a lot of dining options close to the property. Is my second time in one week and noise was not an issue, they keep you updated with all kind of information for you to be ready for a steady vacation. Small but nice rooms... good for an adventurous person or couple. Highly recommend
