La Concha Resort, Puerto Rico, Autograph Collection
They play very, very loud music all day and night. Hard to get away from it. If you stay bring a sound machine to sleep. Everything was pretty average Id' say. Pools are all small, the beach is nice, everything is a bit outdated. The coffee shop is great.
