Excellent response to questions. When we arrived in San Juan, we received all the information to enter the building and our room. Security was great and easy to access. Our patio room was quite in the back.

Very nice apartment unit on the 3rd floor. We stayed at the Crystal Apartment. Because it is Old San Juan we could hear the people downstairs as there is a bar adjacent to this building, till the early hours of the morning but we knew that would be a possibility because of its location. The bedrooms, living area, kitchen/dining and bathroom were all really nicely decorated. Only thing was that I would suggest better Cleaning Staff, when we got in there was chewed gum placed on the wall behind the sofa and used dirty napkins inside one of the decorative pillows on the same. Aside from that it was a great place and also cute building for picture session inside and out.

Nice stay
I love the location which is a walking distance to local shops, cruises port, fort and bus terminal. The check-in and out process is very smooth, the property manager response my questions on call and text quick. I really enjoy the room even there is A/C only on the bedroom. It has a small garden/bird house that is very interesting

We stayed in the Bambu room. It was a room. Nothing more. Could only open one suitcase at a time. That being said, nothing wrong with it. Although I didn't see any staff while I was there (more of an AirBnB space), they did allow me a late checkout with an extra charge, which was nice.
