Roach and Termite Infested: 3rd for apartment

Unacceptable conditions. The Crystal Room in floor 3 was infested with roaches, mildew in shower curtains, the entire property smells like mold, we were swarmed by termites all over the apartment on the last night, poor sleep, dried snot in bathroom walls, tight bathroom space, no good warm water, electrical system attached to shower head, small baby roaches all over kitchen utensils and pots. Needs fumigation, wall repairs, mold mitigation and better decor.

I loved the location, and the way it looks once you entered the building. The people is very friendly and if you have any question they will answer you very quickly. I hope I can go back to the Island soon, and I would definitely stay in this place again.

It was ok. For the same price I could have gotten a hotel room with two beds, pool and rooftop terrace, but I was duped by Hotels.com thinking it was $75 cheaper, till Casa of Essence, added the $65 "property fee," which no one else charged.

Disliked: Cleanliness
Property is located in a very central area. Easy check in instructions available. The building is quite old and needs some TLC. The downside is that they also had quite a bit of cockroaches crawling everywhere and would benefit from a fumigation.

Liked: Staff & service, room comfort

No hot water except for the shower.😕

We enjoyed our stay and the location was excellent. Having said that, we wouldn't stay there again. The main draw back was there was NO hot water in the apartment except for the shower in the bathroom. A device that generated heat was attached to the shower head. No other faucets had hot water.

Beautiful room in the Old San Juan. Responsive and attentive host. Safe building with access only with passcode. Liked the welcome drink. Very close to the Old Castle, and the famous Mallorca breakfast place. Would have liked a window though.

I rented out 2 rooms one was good, the other had a roach infestation. This particular room was comfortable and very convenient for sight seeing around historic VSJ. It could be cleaner as is evident by our other room, owner and staff were friendly and quick to respond.

The location is awesome and the staff is friendly and quick to respond, but room was infested with roaches, left day before check out (2 day rental) was scheduled, staff apologized but that’s simply not enough. I do mean infested as we killed over 7 roaches and saw more, staff and owner pretended to be surprised by infestation, if indeed they didn’t know it is their job to know.
