The property was very nicely decorated and had two gates for security. While there was no front desk, the on-site manager could be contacted through the host. There were some bugs but the on site manager left me a spray to use, so things were manageable. Great location to get to everywhere in Old San Juan.

Very nice apartment unit on the 3rd floor. We stayed at the Crystal Apartment. Because it is Old San Juan we could hear the people downstairs as there is a bar adjacent to this building, till the early hours of the morning but we knew that would be a possibility because of its location. The bedrooms, living area, kitchen/dining and bathroom were all really nicely decorated. Only thing was that I would suggest better Cleaning Staff, when we got in there was chewed gum placed on the wall behind the sofa and used dirty napkins inside one of the decorative pillows on the same. Aside from that it was a great place and also cute building for picture session inside and out.

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.

We stayed in the Bambu room. It was a room. Nothing more. Could only open one suitcase at a time. That being said, nothing wrong with it. Although I didn't see any staff while I was there (more of an AirBnB space), they did allow me a late checkout with an extra charge, which was nice.
