10/10 Exceptional

I loved the location, and the way it looks once you entered the building. The people is very friendly and if you have any question they will answer you very quickly. I hope I can go back to the Island soon, and I would definitely stay in this place again.

Himesh, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Family stay.

We had an amazing time. The beds were amazingly comfortable. The bathroom and shower were clean. We did see a couple bugs, but I do understand we’re on a tropical island. They were tiny and not very overwhelming. It was great to have an air conditioning type unit in each area. It’s a great location everything we wanted to do was within walking distance. I would definitely recommend this to anybody going to Puerto Rico. One little sidenote, my daughter absolutely loved the ice cream shop across the street. And the convenience store on the corner had just about anything we needed.

Terrence, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

It was ok. For the same price I could have gotten a hotel room with two beds, pool and rooftop terrace, but I was duped by Hotels.com thinking it was $75 cheaper, till Casa of Essence, added the $65 "property fee," which no one else charged.
Bryan, 2-night trip

3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Beautiful room in the Old San Juan. Responsive and attentive host. Safe building with access only with passcode. Liked the welcome drink. Very close to the Old Castle, and the famous Mallorca breakfast place. Would have liked a window though.
Rajal, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Property is located in a very central area. Easy check in instructions available. The building is quite old and needs some TLC. The downside is that they also had quite a bit of cockroaches crawling everywhere and would benefit from a fumigation.
Rina, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

No hot water except for the shower.😕

We enjoyed our stay and the location was excellent. Having said that, we wouldn't stay there again. The main draw back was there was NO hot water in the apartment except for the shower in the bathroom. A device that generated heat was attached to the shower head. No other faucets had hot water.
Beth, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Very well located in the heart of Old San Juan. Very clean and well maintained. The only downside is the absence of reception or local staff to give assistence.
Oswaldo, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Very good location. Quirky but fun decor. One down side - the bed was full size, not queen or king which we prefer.
