This is a great option as long as you now what you are looking for. The location can't be beat. you are on the main street (5th ave) going through downtown Playa and walking distance to everything downtown play has to offer. A block to the beach. Great common area with balcony overlooking 5th Ave. where you can make coffee... More

Great place if you're traveling on a bit of a budget but would like to avoid bed bugs, water leakage, and uncleanliness often found in hostels around these parts. My friend and I were pleased with the cleanliness and chillaxed atmosphere of the San Juan Pension and wouldn't hesitate to stay here again in the future. I met a few... More

We have stayed here now for 4 plus years... we will not book anywhere else and recommend to any friend or family coming to stay. The hotel is clean, friendly , inexpensive and we are well taken care of. It is family owned and the same staff are here year after year. They always remember us and welcome us back.... More

My Mom! Aunt and I stayed at Pension San Juan for six nights in January 2012. The location can't be beat! Located on fifth avenue between 6th and 8th, with the beach just around the corner. Lovely little hotel and my second time staying at PSJ. Our room was king room that sleeps 3 and had a cute private courtyard.... More

After they tore down our favourite place we had to find another. We have tried many other places in Playa, but for $49.00 this place is hard to beat. The rooms have a fridge and air conditioning and there is an upstairs deck that has a fully furnished kitchen. Not that we ever cook there but it is nice to... More

The room was spacious with plenty of storage. We had a king sized bed, a fold down couch with drawers under it, a vanity, large closet with... More

Pension San Juan is located right on Fifth Ave at steps away from the beach, restaurants, diving centers and shops. The hotel is simple and functional. The rooms are clean, some like ours came with a nice private balcony from where we contemplated the pedestrian walk and beautiful starry nights. Our ample room had a big dome with a glass... More

Overall, we had absolutely no major problem with our stay there. First major positive point is the price in regards to the location. 5th avenue, close to the bus station/a lot of conveniences/restaurants... well the 5th well known action :) For those who want a very quiet place though, this might not be the best spot as the 5th is...

First of all, making the reservation gave us quite a lot of trouble. We were a group of 8 and we got 4 rooms, each very different from the other. All the rooms were very small, very small bathrooms as well. Air Conditioning didn't work very well in most of them, although they were included in the rate. The staff... More
