8/10 Very good

A/C worked perfectly, it was clean, quiet, bed was comfortable, shower was hot. It was a very convenient location right across from the town square. The only issues were the tv didn’t work and we had trouble finding the unit from the street address. It was a great value for your money.

Brent M, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

My stay at Casa of Essence was perfect! My flight landed a little earlier than expected, and thankfully, they were able to accommodate me with an early check-in. The room was a good size for one or two people, very clean, and the AC worked wonders against the heat and humidity.
Natalia, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

I had a wonderful experience at Casa of Essence. I stayed in the Economy Room, which is perfect for one or two guests. The host was always available and responsive to my concerns, which I really appreciated. Everything was within walking distance, making it very convenient. I highly recommend this place if you're visiting Puerto Rico for a few days, and I would definitely return here in the future.

Jazmine, 5-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

I had a great stay at Casa of Essence. The staff were exceptionally friendly, making early check in easy. The property was very clean, both in the rooms and in the common areas, which made the stay even more comfortable. The location couldn’t be better — it’s close to almost everything in Old San Juan, so we were able to walk to restaurants, shops, historic sites, and the waterfront without needing transportation. Overall, Casa of Essence provided a comfortable and convenient base for exploring the city, and I’d happily stay here again.

Dennis, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Property was great! Room was very clean and stocked! Only issue I had was the mosquitos. Word of advice, just get some bug spray or the bracelets. Will definitely book again. Parking can be difficult on the strip but there are parking lots a short walk away and very cheap. You can sightsee or shop on the way. Overall, beautiful place.
