Casa of Essence

Perfect location. The entire historic district is so walkable. The only reason for 4 stars rather than 5 for cleanliness was it was a little dusty. And I gave it 4 stars for property condition because there were no smoke detectors and the windows were inoperable, which made me uneasy.

I absolutely loved this property. The location was perfect and the staff was so helpful and amazing. Would stay here again.

This is a really cute place in the heart of Old San Juan. All of the checkin was done virtually and we were provided door codes to get into the building and the room, which was very convenient (no keys or cards to carry around). The room was clean and had a microwave and small fridge.

If yr looking for posh, this is not yr place. If yr looking for safe, clean, near EVERYTHING and fully supplied with what you need, this is it. Impressed with communication and attention to what the client would need right down to the small tube of toothpaste and soft cozy towels.

We loved this room/apartment! Keep in mind that it is in a city area so you will hear all the noises of people and cars well into the early morning. I had ear plugs and had no problem sleeping. Will definitely stay there again. Great location and very charming.

We loved our stay. Had a lot of fun. Our room was right above a bar so it was loud at night. Gave us a great old town experience.

We wanted to stay in Old San Juan and found this location to be a perfect fit for being close to a lot of different venues and restaurants. One of the forts was only one block away and the other Fort was within walking distance also. We stayed in the vintage apartment and found the apartment to be very large and comfortable. We would stay at this location again in the future. We were going on a cruise and arrived in San Juan two days early. Our flight arrived early in the morning and the host was able to hold our bags and had our room ready a couple hours early so we could check in and start to enjoy San Juan.

The property was amazing. Felt very secure with three codes needed to get to room. Walkable to anything you wanted to do. I liked how close it was to Plaza Colon where most tours could pick you up. My only disappointment was i thought my room would have patio doors that opened to the street, but glad I didn’t because my room was pretty quiet. I’d definitely stay here again if I return to Old San Juan.

The location is amazing and in walking distance to all the major sights of Old San Juan. We had the tropical room which was decorated nicely, was extremely clean & very quaint. We will definitely stay here again in the future!
