Travelers looking for a place to sleep in Boqueron should think twice. (By the way Boqueron is nowhere near Ponce.) The main problem here is noise. On a quiet night, it might be ok, but tiny Boqueron is party central. The hotel is a stone's throw from the main drag. On the side facing the main street (Calle Jose de Diego), you will hear music blasted out by competing sound systems til at least 2am. On the other side, it's actually worse, because of an endless line of cars that drive by as long as the party keeps going. The hotel's windows have no glass, just screens and thin metal shutters, so you really hear the street noise, car alarms, voices, booming car stereos, engines gunning, etc. Neither the sound of the AC nor a set of earplugs had any chance against the level of noise here. We had the misfortune of being there on a holiday recently (Dia de Reyes, Jan. 5), and the party went on until sunrise. Apparently this is how it is in Boqueron on weekends and holidays, including many holidays that are obscure to non-Latin Americans. The night clerk was kind and helped us move to a slightly quieter room at 2:45am (the music stopped around 2, but resumed at 5:45am), but the day clerk, when asked why no one warned us that Dia de Reyes would mean an all-night party (even when I specified on the phone that we wanted a quiet room) replied that it is only the hotel's responsibility to inform clients of what facilities they offer, not to tell people about things going on outside the hotel. Thanks a lot. As for the facilities, they are pretty rustic for over $100 a night (no breakfast included). The pool is not heated; the TV gets about 8 low-rent cable channels, and the rooms, though spacious and acceptably clean, are very plain. When we arrived, our room had only two towels, though we asked for and got washcloths and a floor towel. The restaurant in the hotel is the nicest place in town, though nothing outstanding. It's too far to walk to the nearest beach. The only reason to consider this place at all is the lack of good alternatives in the Cabo Rojo area, which does have some nice beaches. We also stayed one night at the Bahia Salinas, which cost a good deal more, but was much nicer and certainly quieter (that wouldn't be hard). If you can afford that, it's a better option. We will not return to the Boquemar.
