Fi and I are going on a family vacation next month (the first ever for his family). We''re going on a 3 night cruise to St Maarten and St Kitts which leaves from San Juan, PR. Neither Fi or I have ever been to PR so we''re excited, and we''ve decided to fly in the day before so we don''t have to stress about making it to the boat on time. So now we need to find a hotel for the one night that we''re going to be there. The cruise docks are in Old Town San Juan which I''ve heard is also a cool area of the city to explore. We don''t want to spend a ton on the hotel as it''s only one night and we''re getting in around mid-afternoon (and then leaving after breakfast the next day). We have two hotels that we like. One is a little boutique hotel called the Hotel Milano in Old Town SJ, and the other is a Lux resort called the Condado Plaza which is about a mile or two from OTSJ. The price difference between the two is about $85.
My dilemma is this: Do we save money and stay in the smaller place in OTSJ and forget about the pool, beach, and other amenities of the Lux resort, or do we cough up the money and stay at the really nice place even though it''s a little farther away from the docks and we''ll be around pools and beaches for the rest of the trip?
What would you do?
