My flight was rescheduled for the next day so I searched for available room for one night. Was very disappointed with the room; but, had no choice. Room we stayed was in need of updates. Paint, shower curtains & internet . TV was out of the question. I snap picture of broken furniture & showed it to the staff. NOT SURPRISED- No Reaction!! It’s really a shame cause it’s in a great spot. Near restaurants & beach. Anyway I don’t recommend.

Good airport hotel

My son lives in Rincon, so we're usually staying in San Juan just one night, between our flight in and driving to Rincon. Coral by the Sea allows very late check-in, up to 5 am. It's reasonably priced, near the airport, and clean. Honestly, what more could you ask for?

Decent spot, very ‘minimal’

We preferred to stay here for its proximity to the airport and car rental. The room has the bare minimum, clean towels etc, but not other hotel room staples like a bedside lamp or plug. The TV in our room was so slow that we couldn’t really use it. The staff were friendly and helpful. It’s decent for a short and relatively cheap stay.
