My partner and I stayed in this apartment for five nights. It’s very cute and cozy. It was just the right amount of space for the two of us. We were comfortable. Everything was clean. It honestly looks exactly like the pictures.
We took Ubers everywhere but there is a parking space provided out front. Initially I didn’t think there was hot water in the shower. I waited until the morning and texted the host asking if the water could get any hotter. I got an immediate response on how to use the hot water! It was really simple and I am so glad that I asked.
The location of the apartment is not in a touristy area. It’s really a local neighborhood. We walked around on our first day. There were kids playing basketball outside the house. Everyone in the neighborhood was friendly as we walked past their homes.
There’s a restaurant right around the corner. Unfortunately we didn’t get to try the food but it was packed with customers and it smelled really good when we walked past. There’s also a Walgreens, fast food (Wendy’s, Pizza Hut, Taco Bell, Chinese takeout), a bar, and a gas station all within walkable distance.
There’s also a supermarket, bakery, and a liquor store that is a 15 minute walk in the opposite direction.
The Uber to the airport was about 9 minutes. It was about a 15 minute Uber to Isla Verde beach. 45 minutes to Luquillo Beach. 15 minutes to La Placita.
The roosters crowing can be a little loud at times. And so can the birds chirping. But no real complaints.
