Adorned with images of the coastal scenery around town, this peaceful, sunny yellow residence – converted from a turn-of-the-century building – in central Arecibo has been kitted out with 10 sizable, spick-and-span tiled rooms. A somewhat shadeless pool awaits at the back. City-center attractions are within easy walking distance.
