The room we stayed in had a number of trip hazards. The cement floors were very uncomfortable and there was a deep crack in the wall by the light switch as we entered. Shower was outside the sliding doors and became quite slippery as we showered. Could use a fresh coat of paint and some updating, especially on the bathroom faucet fixtures. They were hard to turn. They dig into your hands. The outside kitchenette has nice appliances and a French press. Coffee was delicious but the floor is unfinished, rough. with a decayed looking drain on the floor. Neighborhood was not the best looking but we felt pretty safe. Wasn't at all what we were expecting. Maybe better for 20 somethings' not 60 somethings'. Left after one day. They wouldn't compromise on returning any portion of our money. We paid for a week. It wasn't a cheap price either. Disappointed 😞

The property seems sketchy at first but upon arrival it’s very legitimate, the inside is clean though minor maintenance to doors and to the room can increase this property to a full 5 stars imo. Other than that everything was wonderful I give a 3.7-4/5. Nonetheless very good stay and overall experience

PROS: If you are looking to feel immersed in the Puerto Rican culture, and avoid the traditional resort/hotel experience, this is your place. The room was nice and had the island vibe. There are a good number of restaurants within a walking distance, as well as a nice beach, and a 24-hour Walgreens. It's also close to Kasalta Bakery, which, in addition to having great food, was used as a pick-up spot for 2 different excursion we went on. CONS: The big red sliding door is a PAIN to open and close. The neighborhood itself was also, on the surface, not the best. We were right next door to a daycare center, so it can't be that bad, but unless you are familiar with the area, that part may be jarring at first.

Dear Dan, thank you for the 5* star review! We are delighted to hear that you had an amazing stay with us. We apologize if you encountered any issues with the sliding door. Had you reached out to us at any time during your stay with us, we would have sent our maintenance team right away, We would like to reassure anyone reading this that it has now been fixed. Our location certainly has more of an urban vibe and may not be ideal for everyone. However, it certainly is the perfect choice for those seeking a more authentic Puerto Rican experience, far from the big box hotel area. We are conveniently located within a short walk from the well-known Calle Loiza, famous for its great restaurant and bar scene. Additionally, Ocean Park Beach is less than a 10 minutes walk away. Thnk you again for your feedback, we look forward to hosting you again soon!

This property was okay. We always try to stay in unique spaces and away from commercialized hotels. From the photos, this definitely fit our expectations. Very nostalgic and quaint. The bad is the location wasn’t in the greatest place and little run down but wasn’t the worst either. Would’ve liked to been offered newly cleaned towels for our 6 day stay especially with no washer and dryer in the unit. A few stains were found on the pillows and towels too. We own Airbnb’s and as a host this should be number one concern which is cleanliness. There was a leak in one of the pipes from the AC and maintenance person did come right away which was good but never came back to fix it till a couple of days later so had to hear drops all night hitting the floor and towels. Our check out time was 11 and needed to extend to 5pm due to our flight later that night. We were able to speak with someone and was charged a full night stay but would’ve been nice to get a discount out of courtesy since no one else had booked it. In general, it was okay. Had French pressed coffee, pans, cups, and everything we needed for our first trip to Puerto Rico.

Dear Daniel, thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We are glad to hear you enjoyed your stay overall and that the unit you booked provided you with everything you needed for your first trip to Puerto Rico. Our location certainly has more of an urban vibe and may not be ideal for everyone. However, it certainly is the perfect choice for those seeking a more authentic Puerto Rican experience, away from the overly touristy spots with the typical big box hotels. We are conveniently located within a short walk from the well-known Calle Loiza, famous for its great restaurant and bar scene. Additionally, Ocean Park Beach is less than a 10 minutes walk away. As a self-check-in property with no on-site staff, we do not provide daily housekeeping service, however, it can be booked at an additional fee. Had you reached out to our 24/7 virtual concierge at any point during your 6-night stay with us, we would have been happy to provide you with some fresh towels and new pillows. We apologize if you found some stains on them and we would have appreciated knowing that right away. We take cleanliness extremely seriously, as proven by our many positive reviews, and we are sorry if we failed to deliver the unit in excellent condition, as per our usual standards. We apologize if the leak of one of the pipes caused you any inconvenience during your stay and we thank you for promptly informing our team about it. That allowed us to address the situation with our maintenance team and coordinate the best and fastest way to have it fixed as quickly as possible. We appreciate your patience in this matter.As you were informed by our team, we are only able to offer late checkouts until 1 pm but invite all guests to leave their bags at our partner hotel for as long as needed, completely free of charge. As you confirmed you wanted to stay in the unit until 6 pm, the only option available was to book the unit for another night as this is past our check-in time of 3 pm. While we did offer you the lowest available rate, our team should have authorized an additional discount. We apologize that this did not happen and we will brief our Virtual Concierge accordingly.Thank you again for your feedback, we hope that we will have the chance to host you again at DADA JAJA by DW.

Located 10 minutes walk from the beach. 2-5 walk from restaurants, bakeries, bars, Walgreens. Unit was decorated cute, was clean, well equipped but uncomfortable. (If you are staying in D2 cover your TP with a towel while you shower, otherwise you will have a huge mess. Also make sure you close the shades and curtains as the unit will be extremely bright by 5:30am) . Please be aware of your surroundings at all time, especially at night.

Dear Nora, thank you for taking the time to leave us your feedback. We are happy to read that you enjoyed our prime location and proximity to the beach as well as the many great restaurants and bars in the area. There are room-darkening curtains or black-out shades for each window in the unit and closing these shades will prevent you from being woken up by the sun early in the morning, that is what they are intended for. We have noted your feedback regarding your toiletries getting wet while taking a shower and have since installed a shower curtain. If there was anything else that made your stay not as comfortable as you had hoped, we want to remind you that our virtual concierge is available 24/7. We are dedicated to making every guest's stay a memorable one!Thank you again for your review, we hope we will have the chance to host you again soon at DADA JAJA by DW.

Dear Idoya, thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. All our four units at DADA JAJA differ greatly in terms of size and amenities which are clearly listed on all booking platforms. We are sorry to hear you thought you booked a different unit, but let us assure you that you received exactly what you reserved via Expedia. We are happy to hear you enjoyed your overall stay with us and that you loved the kitchenette and the design of your signature studio suite. While this is a self-catered property with self-check-in, our virtual concierge is available 24/7, and had you informed us at any moment during your 6-night stay with us about the window, we would have sent our maintenance team to address this immediately.

We stayed in DA1 and it was the BEST. I have never been away from home and felt like it was my home like this place. We never wanted to leave. It's like a dream apartment. This was our fourth DW property stay and every inch is Instagram worthy. The double AC unit was fantastic as it was super hot. You could also go stand on the sidewalk and see Walgreen's which was super handy. Ask for extra bath towels as they only put 2 per room to last your stay. Gorgeous, zen, super safe, an oasis, on a quiet side street. Worth every penny. Love you DADA!
