Wonderful!!!!
Great house, very clean!!!, multiple AC units and fans, short drive to airport, beaches, old San Juan, full of character, and more! Parking in side streets took practice but doable. The whole family (3 generations) loved this house!

5 Stars
We had a fantastic stay at this beautiful 3-bedroom home in San Juan! The house was spacious, clean, and exactly as described in the listing. Each bedroom was comfortable and well-appointed, and the common areas were perfect for relaxing after a day of exploring.Highly recommend this place for families or groups of 3 looking for something other than a high-rise stay or apartment in Puerto Rico.

Breather in Santurce
Amazing time we had in San Juan. Santurce was super fun and fun. Really close to a lot of places we visited (Calle Loiza, Old San Kuan, Condido, Isle Verde, Loiza). We rented a car so it was easy to get around. Carrie and Ryan and baby Nolan were great hosts even leaving us the kindest note and dulces. My personal favorite part was the outside shower. Their home was neat and clean., Everything was so great and perfect. Can’t wait to come back!

Best Birthday Ever !
I absolutely fell in love with this house the moment I laid eyes on it ! The amount of creativity and personality this house has inside and out is amazing . So much art and funny signs that made me smile or laugh everyday . This house had EVERYTHING we needed and as someone who loves to clean and is OCD it made me so happy to see all the cleaning supplies the house came with including beach items . I didn’t have to buy much but food . Location wise this house is super convenient you can walk or take a quick 5-10 minute Uber to a lot of locations such as Calle Loiza (amazing breakfast spots) . I also felt very safe my whole stay here the neighborhood is very friendly and if you have any question people are more then happy to help . Thank you again my amazing host for being so thoughtful and always communicating back .I will definitely be booking this house again !! See you guys soon

Great place!
We had such a wonderful time at this home! It was immaculately clean and stocked with everything we needed, from household essentials to beach gear, making our stay so convenient and stress-free. The neighborhood was vibrant and easily walkable, with a couple of corner stores, local restaurants (check out El Huevo for breakfast/brunch you won't be disappointed!), and even a bar just a 5-minute walk away (and yes, $5 drinks!).
The area itself is lively, with locals playing music throughout the day, which added a fun cultural vibe. Thankfully, the noise usually quieted down just in time for bed, so it didn’t interfere with our rest.
The house was exactly as shown in the photos—absolutely adorable and thoughtfully decorated. A quick note: the avocado bedroom does not have AC but does include two fans, and if you keep the door open to the living room, it stays comfortably cool.
Parking was a bit tricky to find, but that seemed to be a common theme throughout the island, so just a heads-up if you’re planning to drive.
We couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay. Highly recommend this gem if you’re looking for a great mix of comfort, convenience, and local flavor!

Great Location, VERY load area & NO Parking
The house is very cute. Floors were dirty upon arrival. It's right in-between a mechanic shop that starts working and making noise right at 7am and a store/bar that plays load music until early in the morning (about 2 or 3am). Listing stats there's AC but its not in all rooms. There is AC in the living area and 1 of the 3 rooms. The other rooms where very hot and uncomfortable.
There is absolutely no parking for this home. Listing says you can on the side streets. Those are all blocked off (locals put cones or trash cans to save parking for themselves)and for the people that their houses are on that street. We were left a note from one resident telling us not to park there and another day one resident came out when I went to get the car and started harassing me about parking in front of her home. All in all its in a great area but it's very load & if you have a rental pick another place because its going to be a hassle. We noticed our moods would change when we were getting back to the house because of the parking situation... not knowing if someone was going to waiting for us to harass us about parking there.

Exactly as advertised!
If you’re looking for a unique, Puerto Rican flavored, clean, three bedroom, nicely stocked kitchen home, well this is it. My family didn’t want to stay in the sterile American resort area. We wanted to get a truer feel of Puerto Rico. The neighborhood is older and one of the poorer In the city, but we always felt safe even with our two young beautiful daughters. The only negative of the home is the street in front that can be very loud at night. I would use the fans in the middle bedroom closet as white noise mostly for the front bedroom, which is closest to the street. For our week there, we rented a car and traveled all over the island. We found the people be extremely kind and hospitable.
