Drinks & Nightlife

Located in old San Juan, this place can get pretty busy, but If you like microbrews, this is your place! I liked the video tap list of 40 taps, plus a booklet of bottle beer options. The music is chill and you'll really enjoy the ambiance of such a cool mix of old and new.

Getting Around

In front of the Cathedral (Calle Cristo), next to our building, you can take a taxi of the Puerto Rico taxi company. Their cars are white with a logo that says taxi turístico. They are trustworthy. Make sure they give you the rate before you get on it.

Parks & Nature

You'll want to immediately claim your spot and jump in the clear waters. The waters are calm, but when the ocean waves hit the rock walls, water comes in and creates some fun wave action.
