Other tips: Ponce is a large city, so it is recommended to rent a car to get around. Ponce is the second-largest city in Puerto Rico, with a population of over 150,000 people. The city is spread out over a large area, and public transportation can be limited. Renting a car will give you the flexibility to explore the city at your own pace and visit all the attractions you want to see. The climate in Ponce is hot and tropical all year round. Ponce is in the southern part of Puerto Rico, close to the equator. The average temperature in Ponce is around 80 degrees Fahrenheit (27 degrees Celsius) year-round. The city also receives a lot of rainfall, with an average of 60 inches (150 centimeters) per year. The official currency of Puerto Rico is the US dollar. Puerto Rico has been a US territory since 1898, and the US dollar has been the official currency ever since. This makes it easy for visitors from the US to travel to Puerto Rico without having to exchange their currency.
The official language of Puerto Rico is Spanish, but English is also widely spoken. Spanish is the first language of most Puerto Ricans, and it is the language of government, education, and business. However, English is also widely spoken, especially in tourist areas and among younger generations. Dely.

Very clean. The apartment had a modern kitchen and bath. There was plenty of space- a closet, a small sitting area and decent sized bedroom. Definitely use the Brita water filter that they have provided in the refrigerator.
