I picked Posada San Francisco because of location and lack of kids. There are no adults-only…read moreresorts on Puerto Rico, and I figured a hostel was my best bet. And it turned out to be a great idea. The location is perfect. On the outer edge of Old San Juan (OSJ) you are only minutes away from anything in the area but out of the huge tourist crush from the other end of town. When looking at a map of Old San Juan you will think it's bigger than it is. To walk from the Posada to El Morro on the opposite tip of OSJ might take 15-20 minutes at a leisurely pace. I booked the standard double bed private shared room. It cost me $58 per night because I had to pay for 2 people instead of just myself. The single supplement sucks, but it's still inexpensive. The room was clean, clean, clean. And the satellite TV and air conditioning worked. I had to share bathrooms but one was always available when I needed it and they were always relatively clean if not just clean. I appreciated that the other guests during my stay were not slobs. The women working the desk and the one man I saw regularly were always polite and friendly. No issues with service. I used the washer and dryer while I was there, but I got up early to do it so there was no wait. And they are both in good condition - either new or very well-kept. All in all, my four night stay cost me $252 which includes taxes and online processing fees. That amount would have gotten me one night at a resort or hotel. For the price and location, Posada San Francisco really can't be beat, and I would stay here again. Tip: Because I stayed on the 6th floor, I didn't interact much with the other guests. If you're on the 4th floor with the dorms, you'll meet more people. Tip 2: They rent bikes for cheap. Don't forget that. I did.

Perfect location for safe area of Old San Juan. It's right in front of a trolly stop (free around…read moreOSJ) and across from Plaza Colon. Lots of restaurants and tourist shops around to venture towards and located beside the fort. It's a great location, and with another gal pal - I felt safe walking the streets around the area even in the evenings. For $34/night including taxes and fees, it's totally worth the humble hostel environment. Great balcony views, huge kitchen on 5th floor, small fridge in room, flat screen tv and personal AC unit. Rooms open with key cards and on my floor (6th) there were three bathrooms to share on the hall. Bathrooms are not dorm style where multiple ppl are in them but single bathrooms where you close the door and lock behind you. One has a shower stall and the other an actual tub. I Never had to fight for the bathroom or wait. I saw a cleaning lady everyday and the bathrooms were clean but bring your own toiletries and even a hand towel to dry off. You do get a bath towel for each person in the room. Certainly not bad at all ...

The location of this Airbnb is truly unbeatable -- right in the heart of Old San Juan, just steps…read moreaway from amazing bars, restaurants, and coffee shops. It made exploring the area so easy and enjoyable. That said, the space itself could really use some love. The overall feel was more like a motel than a cozy vacation stay. The sheets looked worn and bland, the bathroom had a humid smell, and we even found a cobweb in one of the glass cups. The toilet paper holder was rusty, which added to the sense that the place hasn't been refreshed in a while. We stayed in unit 5. My suggestion to the host: you're in the middle of so much charm and beauty -- let the Airbnb reflect that. Even small updates like upgraded sheets, replacing old furniture, and a deep clean would make a big difference. It doesn't have to be expensive, just thoughtful. With some improvements, this spot could really shine!

EDIT: I forgot to add that in an attempt to see the view from the roof before checking out…read morecompletely, we found that our room key worked for every room inside the building. we couldn't find the door to the roof and accidentally entered two rooms. One that seemed empty but one was clearly occupied with shoes and clothing on the floor. I felt SO bad. Once we opened that door we just locked up and left. Not fun knowing someone's room key works for another. I almost gave this a two star, but my travel partner (mother) said three so I gave Casa Luna the benefit of the doubt. It started off so promising because I've had good experiences with hostels and this one even looked better than most. I received a message from one of the female hosts or two of them...and they provided me with a number to contact them. The second message was stating the room (room 11) is ready and they will send instructions soon. This was about 11AM and my flight was 1:45PM-4:45PM. We arrived in San Juan and had to get our rental car and find our way to Casa Luna. The streets were packed and lots of one ways. We finally found a parking garage not far and walked right up to Casa Luna. One of the good things is that it's findable on Google Maps. We happened to walk up to the main door right as a couple was and they used a key to get in. My mom wanted me to walk in after them but I didn't know if we should since I know they have separate rooms etc and I wasn't SURE what door that was although their sign was outside. The only instruction I saw was that after 6PM we'd have to use a lock box. The lock box on this door was open and empty and my mom was getting smug about how we should've gone in with the other people. I called the number provided twice before they called back three minutes later at 6:20PM. I identified myself and explained the situation. The woman tried to tell me that our door for room 11 would be up the hill and I should've Seen the picture of it in the instructions. I reiterated that I didn't receive any instructions and she scrambled to figure out what happened. She finally realized she took the key with her so she offered room 1 which was supposedly an upgrade after we said we didn't want a room with more stairs because my mom has a slight knee injury. She said this room is clean but the air wasn't turned on for us that's all. She was right. The room seems clean and the air quickly cooled us down. There's a mini kitchenette with a fridge and microwave. Some dishes for use and a dining table. The lighting is limited but they have lamps to brighten it up. Currently I'm writing this review from the bed next to the door which is off the street and has no weather stripping so air and sound leaks in and out. Sounds like there's a dozen people outside taking photos and possibly just hanging out right at the door. I'm about to push the rug up against the bottom of the door to try to muzzle the sound. The WiFi is awful. We can connect and then nothing loads. I turned off the WiFi to use my data to do this yelp review. The tv and "cable" are useless. The tv and all the programs (i.e. Netflix, Hulu, amazon video) are unusable because the tv can't connect to Internet. Seems like some other people had an issue with this too and I wonder if Casa Luna knows and doesn't care. Clean place with AC and a good location that's all I can say. The price could be dropped for lack of any real amenities though and the false advertising. Was a hassle to check in.

Lazy! Nasty! Lazy! Nasty!…read moreLazy! Nasty! Room service will hide the door marker so that customers cannot request room service. We stayed here 5 days and the the cleaning crew never cleaned hair out of the shower basin which was here before our arrival! Our assigned cleaner never mopped or wiped any surfaces- only changed the trash and towels. And I had to fight like hell to get even that! Lazy, nasty cleaning!!! Disgusting!!! I saw one baby roach but that's to be expected on an island. You may get lucky and get a room with acceptable flooring. Or it may be a busted floor with loose grout. And your bathroom may have one working nozzle with the sink. Forget about hot water- not a priority on the island.

-----------NOT HOUSE OF ZEN----------…read more Place was called Caribbean rentals, Guesthouse. Not sure if they moved or not. Run by Robert Davis. We were not told of a deposit until after we had to check in. Were promised return of deposit permitting nothing was stolen, damaged, etc. We returned the keys and everything was left as it was found. The guy in charge said he would be there at noon on the day of check out to inspect and return deposit. After waiting for him for 45 minutes and after various attempts to contact him, we had to leave to catch our flight. He was unresponsive until 7pm. I asked him about the deposit several days in a row and he kept saying he would get it to me through moneygram as per my request, but never did. After three or four days of repeatedly asking for the return of deposit, he decided to say that he didn't owe us any deposit and that we owed him a balance of $35 from a $75 lockout fee, which we do not have to pay because he clearly said "don't worry, I am not going to charge you" because it was not even our fault. Wouldn't do anything when other guests were being disruptive (barging into our room) and were told "it happens". One of the other guests was telling us that the owner refused to show the guest ID. Other guests creeped out. Had no a/c but whatever, that was advertised. Overall unreliable. I guess you get what you pay for. A hostel probably would have been a better choice. Reported to the BBB and of course, no response. Just out for your money... Obviously.

Our cab driver recommended this place, so glad he did. We didn't want to pay a lot of money to be at a place where we'd only show up to sleep. When you walk in, there's a steep staircase to the main floor. No lights were turned on, as if the manager was saving energy. The check in was easy, we had called from the cab and asked for availability. Glad they had a room available. The shared bathroom and kitchen were decent, though a bit far from our room. We were hoping for a room with a window, but for reserving same day I guess we can't complain. They do have a balcony which lets you enjoy the sights and sounds of old San Juan. We sat out on the balcony looking over the old Spanish architecture, and enjoying the sounds of the bustling town. This place is ideal for those who wish to save some money and be able to explore the old San Juan without breaking the wallet or stressing out over driving. I'd probably stay here on my next trip to Puerto Rico (unless I stay with old friends on the island). FYI: we experienced this hostel in July 2013. It may have changed.

The gentleman on site only spoke Spanish but you didn't need to worry about that check in was easy and quick and the private room was accommodating. The location and price is perfect for a back packer or someone who needs to sleep at night and see the island during the day. In a very touristy spot so safety isn't an issue and it's mins away from a lot of restaurants and late night bars. Check out at noon allowed me to sleep in and leave my bags while I went for breakfast !!!! If I come back to San Juan I will definetly stay here again.

I pointed out that the QRCodes on ALL the tables went yo website that said 8pm. ...and the printed menus said 8pm and yhe only reason we found out that 6:30pm was latest to order food was we happened to be at the beach next to building to hear "last call" times. Everyone at hotel stated that website and printed menus were out of date....no obvious signs stated different hours. Manager very aloof, but sh did take the qrcodes off the tables...printed menus and website still wrong. We encountered another couple who ordered food at last call. They were very unhappy that food served was cold and did not have any condiments. Next issue there is only street parking...we had to park .75 miles away from motel. Concerns about safety of leaving car on street overnight.

It was…read moreabsolutely beautiful to wake up to the waves crashing every day and having coffee on the beach each morning. The vibe: cool, trendy, laid back. The restaurant: gorgeous décor, mostly great food, delicious drinks right on the beach at your lounge chair! The staff: all very friendly - I especially loved Joanit and Aminda, who made me feel at home! The service: very good except when I asked for a bowl for my dog, they refused. They said they only have outside bowls for the beach that can't be used inside the hotel rooms? Also they didn't want to give me a bowl from the restaurant initially, but then a staff member helped me out later. The location: in the gated community of Ocean Park, adjacent to the trendy neighborhoods of Santurce and Condado. A quick Uber ride can bring you to Old San Juan and Ubers arrived within 5 minutes from my experience. The rooms: honestly, nothing special. The cleaning could have been a bit more thorough getting the nooks and crannies. I was glad to stay in an interior room, as I wanted quiet. If you stayed in a beach-facing room, you could hear the music from the restaurant below. I loved that the room came with free lounge chair rentals on the beach. I also loved that wifi instructions and free snacks and drinks were in the room upon arrival. I did not love that there wasn't a hair dryer in the room. The A/C was powerful and kept the room cool. One thing that was a bit surprising was that the power went off multiple times one night. The first time was at about 9pm and the room went pitch black, which was kind of scary. I was searching for my phone flashlight, but the power came back on about 30 seconds later. This happened again at 2am. The internet in the room was good for streaming initially, but after the power outage, the internet cut out about every 10 minutes. Overall, I had a great experience and I would definitely come back!

They were always there to give us toilet paper when we ran out and answer our questions. We didn't get to see them much since we were out and about, but the few times we did they were delightful. -There was a delicious restaurant (Kasalta) and beach (Ocean Park Beach) within walking distance. -Though the area wasn't the best, the gates all locked and only the guest had a key to unlock the gates and enter the premesis. -The rooms and beds were comfortable and the air conditioning worked very well. -The hot tub was delightful, warm, and a great place to relax. The not so good: -The area was a little sketchy. People hanging out on street corners and playing loud music all night. -The air coniditioning was a bit TOO cold, even when we had the knob switched to "off". But I'm sure if you just ask them to help with making this more comfortable, they will. -There was limited parking and one time, we had to park a block down on the sketchy, dark street. The other nights though, we got there just in time to see another guest pulling out so we could take their spots. Overall, we liked this guest house a lot. The area does seem a little scary, but right down the street a few miles is San Cristobal and Old San Juan. It is also very close to its own little beach.
