Just ok
The room was ok, nothing bad and nothing great. The location was great, next door to the car rental that we used and very close to the airport. Other than that the price of the room was higher than what the room had to offer.

Nice pool, clean room, good price. Near the air port you can hear planes taking off so if you’re a light sleeper bring head phones. Other than that it was pretty basic and straight forward hotel!!

Good stay
The hotel is dated but clean. The staff is friendly and helpful when it cubes to language barriers. They were nice enough to accommodate our luggage when we were unable to check in early. This allowed is the opportunity to go have lunch and go to the beach.
There are two restaurants on site and the beach is a 5 minute walk away.

Close to beach and airport
One night stay close to beach and airport. Friendly check in, easy parking. Comfortable bed, just had to ask for more towels and wash cloths which were quickly brought. Nice having 2nd floor pool deck. Good value.

It’s a nice hotel just to stay for night. I won’t recommend for a family to stay there. Disappointed when every hotel check out is at 11:00 and they are knocking at your door at 10 am.

Economical and clean
Stay was easy to get to and had a gun little cafe attached for a quick breakfast! Pricing was great in comparison to other surrounding hotels. Perfect for the overnight stay on our way to Vieques!

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?

Not as advertised!
The room was dingy and not clean and had bugs. The key card didn’t work, and the elevator was questionable. We were afraid we were going to get stuck! Neither restaurant was able to accommodate my hungry family, either. We did not stay the night, we left right away.

Definately not as advertised with false photos .
The hotel is not as advertised. The photos are not current, nor accurate. It is in a great neighborhood but is by far the most run-down hotel in the area. Buyer beware. There are lots of options to choose from in the area and I would advise not to choose this one. Pillows as hard as rocks. Room looked more like a jail cell.
