OysterMid-Range
"The 23-room Hosteria Del Mar is a laid-back, mid-range boutique property with direct beach access located in the upscale residential enclave of Ocean Park." Full review
Frommer's "Rooms are comfortable but a bit drab, something you won't notice if you are on the beach side. Suites and efficiencies with kitchen facilities are also available. " Full review

We still suggest you splurge for an ocean-view room, with either a balcony or terrace, right on San Juan's most low-key beach.
Lonely Planet "With a desirable beachside location... this whitewashed Ocean Park guesthouse is quiet, intimate and definitively Caribbean." Full review
