BREAKFAST INCLUDED ON THE ROOM'S PRICE. Guests will feel at home and can count on my help for everything they need. The apartment is very cozy, and is located in the North of the city center, in a quiet and safe neighborhood, less than 2km from the coast. It is one of the most sought after areas of Havana, with great cultural activity, close to areas of great tourist interest such as the Capitol, the Central Park, the Great Theater of Havana and Old Havana. It is also very close to theaters and cinemas of Vedado, the Malecón and the Bay and only 20 minutes drive from the airport. The bus stop is just 2 minutes walk from the house, you can also take collective taxis at good prices at the stop. I can request collective taxis that carry out their collection from home to go anywhere in the country, as well as American cars with excellent conditions that bring you from the airport to my home and also you can book to meet Cuba traveling in an old american car . If they want me
I can coordinate the collection, so you only have to tell me at least 24 hours in advance.
I live alone and I am an actor of TV, theater and radio. My passions are cinema and theater and although I love animals, I do not have pets. I also like to travel and make friends. I was not born in Havana, it is very easy for me to understand the curiosity of visitors, I know many places in Havana that will make them fall in love with her. I can help the guests and advise them to enjoy a wonderful vacation in Cuba. ah, it is important that my clients know that they will be able to enjoy the refreshment service inside the room.

Really good breakfast and dinner :-)Host reply
Martina and her friend were excellent clients. Very careful with cleanliness, very organized people. I had the pleasure of talking a lot with them and giving them the references of my city. I hope you have the opportunity to return to Cuba. They will always be welcome. Thank you.

Staying with Roiniel was an absolute pleasure. From start to finish, he made me feel at home.
The flat is very clean and located in the heart of Havana; close enough to all the touristy places (walking distance) but enough distance to experience the non-touristy parts. The room is comfortable and nice as well as the bathroom. However the best thing about the place was Roiniel, who was so kind and helpful.

Roiniel is a gentleman, helped at every oppertunity!

It is what a guest needs who on several occasions preferred my home, who did a lot of good with his visit because his company as a family is also valued in five hearts. A great friend is you. Thank you for having the kindness to choose my home. I hope you come back soon. a strong handshake FRIEND. Many good things I wish you in this coming year. Merry Christmas.

Absolutely positive recommendation! We would always stay there again. The stay was just great. Our host Roiniel is a very reliable, helpful man who responds to the wishes of his guests. We made the experience that he’s just friendly from the bottom of his heart. We talked about different subjects and got to know a lot about Cuban people and Havana. The place with the bathroom included was very clean, the sleeping-room very nice with a fridge and aircondition. The breakfast Roiniel created in the morning was more than delicious. The accommodation is well located. You can even get to Habana vieja just by a short walk.

YOU ARE INVITED TO COME TO MY HOUSE AGAIN WHEN YOU WISH, EVEN WITHOUT NEED TO PAY ANYTHING. YOU ARE MY FRIENDS. A STRONG HUG FOR THE TWO AND TRUTH I HOPE TO SEE THEM TO SEE. MERRY CHRISTMAS, I WISH FOR YOU THE BEST IN WHAT IS OF THIS YEAR AND THOSE WHO ARE TO COME. I AM FULLY GRATEFUL FOR HAVING KNOWN THEM!

Clean room and bathroom, towels, shower gel and so on were provided.
+/- 20 min walk from main square.
Roy was a very nice host and made a great breakfast for us (included!). He only spoke a little English and you better pay the correct amount (no change).

With Jolien I barely had time to talk. They, from very early on, were going to meet and enjoy the city, which is very good. in relation to the payment of the room I can say, and the other evaluations prove it, that I have never missed a coin from anyone and I will never do it because my family gets the best habits and good education. Now, if you are referring to tipping, I also thank you but I always put myself in the place of my clients and I consider the effort that some have made to travel and pay all the expenses, in fact homestay gives us the possibility of choosing if the Breakfast is included or not and I prefer to include it for not being hard. It is not contempt of my part for the tip, but in Cuba, all things are expensive and Cubans are very grateful to those who come to help us. I reiterate, if it is a tip, of course I accept it. Regarding the language, I hope that at least you can comment that despite everything we could understand. On my part I had the best intentions of being able to serve you. For me, that's where the essence of communication lies.

Roiniel is a great host, ready to help you and inform you of anything! The house is very clean, very nicely decorated and very attentive with all the necessities! It is just a 10-minute walk from the Capitolio. The area is very safe. If you want to live among the locals and feel the pulse of Havana, then you definitely have to choose your stay at Ron's home. With a full breakfast to start your day and with WiFi in the apartment! Thank you for the wonderful hospitality and I hope to see again! :)

Roy est un hôte génial ! Une fois le seuil de la porte franchit, il nous as bien fait comprendre que l'on était pas chez " lui " mais chez " nous " . Il est très ouvert au dialogue, souriant, toujours de bon conseil et prêt à vous aidez dans tout ce que vous entreprendrez de faire. Notre séjour chez lui a été pour nous ce que nous étions venus chercher à Cuba : découvrir la vraie vie des cubais et échanger avec eux. J'espère que l'avenir nous donnera l'occasion de se recroiser. Nous avons conseillé Roy pour d'autres amis et continuerons de le faire encore. La chambre est grande avec une salle de bain privative avec tout le nécessaire (très rare à Cuba) à disposition, la climatisation et les ventilateurs. Un frigo est aussi disponible avec boissons rafraichissantes ! Le service est remarquable, les déjeuners sont copieux et Roy ne vous laissera pas sortir sans avoir fait le plein de vitamines =) Merci pour tout Roy , notre coup de cœur à Cuba !

merci de dire merci de tout mon coeur, merci d'avoir la gentillesse de m'envoyer à d'autres clients. Votre aide a été très bonne pour moi. vous étiez très instruit. Je me suis senti heureux d'avoir une bonne communication et j'aimerais bien les revoir. J'espère que vous pourrez y retourner dès que possible. Je vous souhaite bonne chance dans votre vie et dans votre relation. Ici à Cuba, ils ont un ami. un gros câlin pour vous.
