One of my favorite places to eat around the neighborhood. Lote 23 is basically a two-minute walk from Santurce Urban Lodge and is a permanent food truck court. Wander between the various trucks to choose from Puerto Rican food, pizza, croquetas, noodles, and more. They also have carts serving beer and cocktails as well. Beyond the food though, the atmosphere is lively, and it's a fun place to chat with locals. They also do events like yoga, music, and movies.

Sightseeing
El Morro
Calle BeneficenciaCan you even say you visited Puerto Rico without hitting the beach? Probably not! Ocean Park Beach in Santurce is a little more laid-back than the beaches you'll find in Condado or Isla Verde, but no less beautiful. We offer a shuttle service so you don't even have to walk to get there, even though is just a 10-minute walk.
