I found out about this place from a friend of a friend. Actually stayed there a couple years ago, but didn't know the name of it till now. This place has an amazing location. You are literally in the heart of Old San Juan. It makes me laugh when people complain about their room not being ready or the cleanliness... more

This guest house is located in the middle of old San Juan. The owner does not speak English. However, he has a helper who does speak English. The hotel itself is safe and is located in a very old building. The prices range from 20-40 dollars depending upon if you have a balcony or air conditioning. If there is another... more

Well I read all the reviews here, and also had my friend in San Juan go and visit the guesthouse before I reserved, and I was ready for what it is when I arrived.

In general I... more

The prices are cheap and that was one of the main attractions to us, but the charisma and Old San Juan feel is worth way more than money. Castro checked us in, was very... more

As far as I could tell, this was the cheapest place to stay in Old San Juan. It's a good place to stay if you don't plan on spending any time in your room. It's not at all pleasant, despite the fact that it clearly used to be a beautiful building. If you like things like a bathroom with your... more

I read the review before we booked this place. But just needed one night stay over before we set sail on our cruise...It remines me of Europe...Bring a towel, soap and shampoo...Bathrooms are down the hall.
