PLEASE NOTE ~ The residence is located on the second floor of a 200+ year-old building and is accessible only by stairs. There is no elevator, which may present challenges for guests with mobility limitations. ~ As the apartment is in the heart of Old San Juan, it offers a vibrant, walkable location—but with that comes some street noise, particularly on weekends or during festivals. Light sleepers may prefer the quiet master bedroom, which is set away from the street.

These disruptions are usually resolved within a few hours and are simply part of life in the Caribbean.
