Planning a 5 night trip to San Juan , Puerto Rico in March.
Hotels seem super expensive, any airbnb recommendations on where to stay, which neighborhood is fun and safe.

Some of the beach front resorts seem to be cheaper than in SJ proper - if you aren’t into nightlife and want something more laidback, have you considered staying at one of the resorts and taking an Uber into SJ for a day to explore?

Thank you , I’ll take a look

Condado baby, stay away from old San Juan I've heard. Love PR. The other side of the island is remarkable too, Rincon area.

If you like the laid back life at the beach, consider Airbnb in Luquillo. Rent a car and explore. Be sure to head up to Guavate for lechon!

I stayed at Tropica Beach hotel and it was affordable, walking distance to the beach, and in a cute and chill neighborhood!

Born and raised in PR, pm me if you want for any questions

I am visiting Moab and Arches National Park this year, and would love to learn more about biking in/around the park!

If so, are there places to lock up the bike at trailheads and/or parking lots to take in?
I haven't been to this national park yet, so I was curious how it compares to Zion for example, where it is easy to bike from "stop to stop" to view the scenery or do a hike!

Thank you!
