I have stayed at the Borinquen twice now, both times in January of this year. If you're looking for the cushy amenities of a beach resort, go elsewhere. If you're looking for a clean, cheap place to sleep, stay here. The Borinquen is a tiny little place nestled in amongst the huge resorts on Isla Verde. The location is great;... More

My wife and were looking for someplace reasonable for a four day stay in San Juan, close to everything and the airport included. We took a Taxi from Ponce on Sunday, and our driver suggested the Borinquen Beach Hotel. We arrived in the afternoon, and were greeted by "Grace" the hotel clerk. She was very friendly and helpful, since we... More

We stayed at Borinquen 1 night before our cruise. It's very close from the airport ( 5 min ) and close to ship terminal ( 10 min ). Rooms are clean, simple and it worked for us just to spend the night. Check-in was fast and easy. They have little kitchen if you wish to prepare light breakfast in the... More

It was infornt of a gorgeous beach and very centric (farmacy, restaurants, entertainment.) Despite being 2 girls in a hotel room we felt safe, there was staf 24/7 at the gated entrance. The hotel recomended we... More

I needed a cheap place to stay for just one night that was close to the SJU airport. There were plenty to choose from and I did read a bunch of reviews before deciding on Borinquen Beach Inn. I don't understand how anyone can give this spot 4 or 5 stars. I agree with many of the different factors that... More

We spent nine nights at the Borinquen Beach Inn. It's location is great. Very close to the beach. There are lots of eating places within walking distance. Walgreens is a block away. We used the public bus to go to Old San Juan...75 cents. The people at the desk were very helpful. The price was wonderful especially in this area... More

If you don't need to be at a W hotel this is the perfect place. Safe, clean, comfortable, and has all the basics. The staff are friendly and helpful. It's located in the middle of everything, so you can hit all the major hotels and night spots easily from there. The beach is literally a 2 minute walk away. I... More

Just returned from the island and stayed at the borinquen beach inn and perfect location, very clean and no issue whatsoever. I decided to stay there against the biggest hotels next door because of: 1- Free Parking. 2- Same location If what you are looking for is a simple clean place to stay, this is for you. More

This was our first (of many) visits to Puerto Rico. It is impossible not to be impressed with the sandy beaches, the charm of Old San Juan and the mysterious beauty of El Yunque but the staff at Borinquen Beach Inn truly made us feel like " Borinqueno's." Where is the best local food? How do we get here? No... More
