From the moment you enter you begin to notice the difference in this unique property. Each floor is uniquely designed and decorated. Each room is also independently and uniquely decorated, lovingly prepared, furnished and beckons to be experienced on another occasion. The location is perfect for anyone looking to explore Old San Juan on foot and yet easily hire a vehicle and explore any other parts of the area and Island.

Owner and his daughter provide good communications, and friendly service. Casa of Essence is an enjoyable, affordable, and safe place to stay. The room was very clean. The bed was comfortable. My only suggestion for improvement would be to put a small plastic table in the corner of the large shower, or install a small shelf, to place soap and shampoo while you shower.

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.

Liked: Staff & service
Overall, we had a great experience and would return next year. Casa of Essence is a charming, family owned and operated property with a lot of character. The space is decorated with antiques and classic pieces, and each room or suite has its own unique design, which we really appreciated. Our room had a bohemian feel and included a comfortable trundle. The queen mattress was firm and the linens were spotless and clean. It is an older building with some modern improvements still in progress, which is understandable and did not take away from our comfort. We did encounter a minor issue during our stay, but it was handled promptly and professionally. We also noticed dead roaches, which we understood to be a sign of recent fumigation. The host was kind, welcoming, and very responsive, especially when answering our questions about the area. The location is excellent, particularly during La Sanse. Plaza de Colón is right outside, yet we had no noise issues at all, which was impressive given how lively the area can be. Calle San Francisco isnear great restaurants (easy access to food and beverages, vendors, the Haitian Gallery and the Maritime Museum, footsteps away from El Morro, and safe walking distance from the Marina and La Perla. We are only deducting one star due to the minor issues mentioned, though the room itself was very clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully prepared. Overall, everything was beautiful, and Casa of Essence offers a unique, well-located, and memorable stay.

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.
