Buff Daddy Posted February 13, 2023 Share Posted February 13, 2023 Hi Billy Man. Where are you staying?. I haven't been to San Juan in years. I use to stay at the Atlantic Beach Hotel on condado Beach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+ nycman Posted February 13, 2023 Share Posted February 13, 2023 (edited) I used to go there on frequent trips to Puerto Rico. I liked it a lot. Just the right amount to "dirty”. Reminded me of NYC East Village dive bars in the early 90’s. Fun and a little sleazy. Everyone was very friendly. Like any dive bar it could be very hit or miss and trying to figure out when the "right time" to be there isn’t very easy to do. I say stop by and see if it’s the right scene for you. At most, the cover was like $5, so there’s not much to lose. I just wouldn’t plan an entire evening around it, because it could easily be a bust. Having said all that, I haven’t been to SX since the pandemic started. I was in PR a year or so ago and PR was a fucking mess. I’m pretty sure SX was still closed then. I just know I didn’t visit SX on that trip. The neighborhood is a little rough, and like I said PR in general didn’t feel very safe at the time so I didn’t venture off the property. Hell, even on property at a 5 star hotel (where I was a regular for years) was sketchy as fuck. I’m sure things are starting to "normalize" but just do your homework, and be careful.
