Very cute and quaint apartment in a perfect location. It was far enough from the nightlife so you could get a good night sleep, but just around the corner was the heart of Old San Juan. Walking distance to everything. Not much water pressure in the shower, but definitely not a deal breaker for us. Host was very responsive, bed was comfortable, and the A/c worked great. Would definitely stay again.

Old San Juan trip

Loved this spot! It was a little oasis in the middle of Old San Juan. The terrace was a gem to sit out on in the morning and drink my tea before heading out. Lourdes was in touch several times to make sure I had what I needed. It was a great stay.

My husband and I came for a quick birthday trip. Lourdes met us at the door with a warm welcome. She had gone up ahead of arrival and turned on the air to make sure the space was comfortable. Location was perfect for walking everywhere and away from the loud night crowds. More restaurants to choose from then one could ever visit. Caficultura was our first stop every day for coffee and breakfast. We had a rental car, for day trips, that we parked at Dona Fela, maybe a 5 minute walk down the hill. Easy in and out parking and quick to get out of the city. We were excited to see the castles open, even with the government shutdown. The only hiccup was that San Juan lost all the city water the day before we arrived and some sections finally got it back the night before we left. Public Restrooms were hard to come by and everything was served on disposables since no one could wash dishes. We bought a case of water at the local Walgreens for drinking and brushing teeth. Thankfully this apartment has a water cistern so we still had running water and all the plumbing worked, we just had to be conscientious to take quick showers. Overall the locals were upbeat and ultimately it wasn’t too inconvenient for us. Great trip, great apartment, great location.

Your own personal Oasis in Old San Juan

Stayed here on a business trip but wanted to experience Old San Juan. This home is on a perfect street that is just far enough away from the bar crowd that it stays nice and quiet, but close enough to the action that you can just walk a few blocks and you're in the mix of things. The apartment is well appointed and kept very clean. There is strong 100 MB Wi-Fi as well as a solid 5G cell reception, at least from Verizon. A big storm came through while I was there and it knocked out power to part of Old San Juan, which in turn caused the water to be turned off. Lourdes, the host, was very receptive and even sent over a plumber to see if there's anything they could do on the location but it was a city-wide issue. Luckily the water restored in a few hours so wasn't a big deal. I received a message from Lourdes that the water was back on before I even noticed it had returned. Great communication. The back patio is wonderful and a Great escape. Air conditioning works extremely well. It was almost too cold in the middle of the day when the temperature was the hottest outside. Would definitely stay here again and recommend it to anyone considering.

San Cristobal in Old San Juan

The apartment has everything we (wife and I) needed and more. It is in a great location with easy access to all that Old San Juan has to offer. I really liked the floor plan of the apartment and we enjoyed having a Medalla on the deck in the late afternoon. Having the sleeping compartment to the rear of the apartment made for a restful/peaceful night’s sleep. Very few city noises – though I may have been too tired to have heard them. The owner’s attention to detail is to be applauded. I especially liked that they have installed solar panels and a backup battery system to provide continuous power in the event of a blackout. All air conditioning, fans and water systems worked great which led to a very comfortable stay. If you enjoy a good breakfast don’t miss La Carretta. Note: if you must rent a car, make it a small one.

Beautifully lit with natural light and many windows. Terrace is just lovely and a wonderful place for breakfast. Landlady, Lourdes, is kind, informative and lovely. I did find the many levels of floor difficult to deal with in terms of safety and a good bedside lamp would be very helpful. Also kitchen utensils need to be replenished. All in all, apartment in fantastic location and I would return in a flash.
