I booked the Andalucia based on other TripAdvisor reviews. I was very pleased to see that those reviews were right on.
The reservation process was very straightforward, accomplished by a series of emails. Emeo, one of the two guys who run/own this guest house, sent information on how to get there with instructions for the taxi driver to find the place.
When we arrived straight from our cruise ship around 10am, our room wasn't ready yet, but we expected that. Emeo went through the check-in formalities, provided a map of the area as well as map of Old San Juan, gave us the key to our room for when we return and off we were. When we came back in the evening, our bags were already taken to our room for us.
The next day we went to the beach and Andalucia has beach chairs, mats, umbrellas as well as towels available to take to the beach, which is about 2-3 blocks away. They even have books and games available.
They were very flexible with our check out as well. It was a very pleasant experience, more as a guest at someone's home (albeit you had to pay for it) than staying at a hotel.
We would definitely stay there again.
