Beautiful place but communication at check in and check out was very tricky. Had to find the number and call them upon arrival which took me to a call center who then gave me the code (having the code ahead of time would’ve been much better as our hands were full of luggage). Check out was also confusing as we couldn’t find anyone and I messaged via Expedia’s messaging with the hotel and got no response. We just left the keys in the empty reception area and left word with a landscaper man. Once there, the place and room were gorgeous. You can tell they thought of every single detail when creating this place. Only reason I’m docking a star is for the communication and because we were woken up 2 times by random loud noises at midnight and then again at 4:30 AM. First time sounding like someone was sanding something in a neighbors house or something - and the second noise was loud banging on a gate or something nearby. We had to be at the airport very early so it was definitely annoying. It might help if they put fans in the room or if the AC hummed louder to drown out the noise- or just staying in another room not overlooking the street. We stayed in #9.

I recently stayed at The Weekender Hotel in San Juan, and it was fantastic. Tucked away in the Ocean Park neighborhood, this boutique hotel is just a short walk from the beach, great restaurants, and fun nightlife spots. Even though it’s close to all the action, the hotel itself is super quiet and peaceful, making it a perfect place to relax and unwind. The rooms were clean and modern, with a simple yet stylish design that felt fresh and inviting. The bed was really comfortable, and everything was well taken care of. The property overall has a calming vibe that makes you feel at ease as soon as you arrive. The staff was friendly and helpful, which made the stay even better. I would definitely recommend The Weekender to anyone visiting San Juan. It’s perfect if you’re looking for a mix of relaxation and easy access to everything the city has to offer. I had a great time and can’t wait to stay here again!

We had a terrible experience staying at this place for 2 nights. The shower leaked, we didn't have warm water, the doors of the room are transparent, and they never turn off the light in the hallway, so you are unable to sleep because light is hitting you directly in the face all night through the plexiglass door. They changed our room because of the issues, but unfortunately the other room had the same problems. On our last night, someone working at the property was outside of our room at 6 am making very loud noises pretending to be cleaning. We didn't have one night of good sleep. Also, the pool is extremely dirty. This hotel is not worth the price.
