Very nice place would highly recommend this place and I would definitely stay here again.
Steven, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Excellent location
Excellent location in old San Juan. Easily walkable to several landmarks and a ton of restaurants and shopping stores. Additionally, the shuttle does pass around the area. Post was kind enough to let us store our luggage while we looked around the town. The only thing I wish that was in the unit Was an exhaust system to help with humidity control.
3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Convenient, clean and comfy
Check in went smoothly without a hitch and the location is perfect for exploring OSJ and the nearby Castillo. The bed was super comfortable and the room was clean, if a little tight. We were only there to sleep though so tight quarters were not a problem. Waking up to the sounds of birdsong was a pleasant surprise. Conveniently close to good music, restaurants, and attractions.

6/10 Good

one of a kind
It is a quirky hotel but has lots of character. We stayed in the patio room which is pretty small. There are actually birds and fish in the lobby. Good location
Michael, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

We enjoy our stay and the connivence of being in Old San Juan.
Julie Anne, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

A decent stay
The accommodation has a many amenities but overall cleanliness is missing. There was a constant smell in the apartment. Other than that the location is great.
Bhuvan, 3-night trip

4/10 Fair

Meh
The staff was very helpful to accommodate the but there were many issues. The building is not easy to find due to there being no sign. Room smelled of light mildew. Overall, it served its purpose but I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone.

This is a family-operated business and all of the members that I either spoke with or met in person are super nice and helpful. I highly recommend this property!
Angela, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The host was excellent , very responsive, and provided helpful recommendations for places to eat and visit. We appreciated how easy the check-in process was, and the communication was seamless throughout our stay. Our stay at Cada of Essence was absolutely wonderful! The location was perfect – close to everything we wanted to explore . The home was spotless, beautifully decorated, and had all the amenities we needed to feel right at home.

10/10 Exceptional

Such a lovely stay! We really enjoyed the decorations. It is conveniently located near many restaurants and bars. And it’s right next door to a small supermarket that has a wide variety of products. Will def consider staying here again

It was nice, it smelled humid and the decor was a little all over the place, but overall it was good 😊
Onixavier, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Very cute room right in the middle of Old San Juan
Such a lovely room right in the middle of all of the cafes, restaurants, and beautiful views. We especially appreciated the dehumidifier! I got quick response whenever I had a question and the site manager was very nice. I loved being able to take a night stroll and just walk back to the room instead of taking an Uber. There is a window that lets in light from the hall which isn’t a big deal if you don’t mind but you might want to be aware that it will not be pitch black at night if light bothers you. There are also birds across the hall that chirp rather loudly in the early morning. My partner and I didn’t have a problem with this but again, it might be something to consider if you are sensitive to noises in the morning. Since the room has no outside light, we appreciated the light coming in through the hall and we like the sounds of birdsong so we had a good time.

Excellent Customer Service
Excellent response to questions. When we arrived in San Juan, we received all the information to enter the building and our room. Security was great and easy to access. Our patio room was quite in the back.

Nice stay
I love the location which is a walking distance to local shops, cruises port, fort and bus terminal. The check-in and out process is very smooth, the property manager response my questions on call and text quick. I really enjoy the room even there is A/C only on the bedroom. It has a small garden/bird house that is very interesting
