Had a great experience and stay at this property. From an easy check in process and friendly staff to how clean and gorgeous the property is. It also has a couple great restaurants in a walking distance, with one being open 24 hours. I would highly recommend this property for your next stay.
We rented the entire property (all 5 units) for our part of 18. They accommodations were nice and there were some good restaurants within walking distance. The couch beds were not that comfortable but we made do.

The property was very clean and comfortable. Unfortunately the property shared space was very loud and the street noise was also very loud.

This stay far exceeded my expectations! I would love to stay again
We stayed here for 5 days during our trip to Puerto Rico and had a great overall experience.
Check-in was easy, the property was very clean, and the AC worked really well. We didn’t encounter any bugs, and having parking right in front of the apartment (we stayed in Apt 2) was a huge plus.
I did see reviews about street noise, but coming from New York, it didn’t bother us. If you’re sensitive to noise, it’s something to consider.
The backyard is a nice shared space with individual hammocks, though it doesn’t offer much privacy. The only downside was the bed — it was a bit too firm for our liking.
Overall, we’d definitely recommend this place and would stay here again!
