Sin duda, repetiría expericiencia y aconsejo a todo el mundo que se alojé en esta casa.
Gracias Fanny y CristinaSeptember 2024
De los mejores recuerdos q nos llevaremos de Cuba. Fanny es increíble, dedicada a cada detalle, a cada consulta q le hiciéramos y solucionarnos cualquier problema desde antes q llegáramos a la Habana. La habitacion impecable con todo lo que uno necesita. Los desayunos q prepara su madre en la terraza son dignos de recomendación. La ubicacion no puede estar mejor, cerca de todo. Su marido aunque no lo veras mucho , esta dedicado a q tengas la mejor experiencia sin q te falte nada. Solo tenemos palabras de agradecimiento y de este viaje nos llevamos sobre todo una gran amiga Cubana.

Estancia Excelente y Hospitalidad Inmejorable
Nos sentimos muy bien durante nuestra estancia en la Habana. Los anfitriones fueron súper hospitalarios y nos ayudaron en todo lo que necesitamos. La habitación era súper limpia, amplia y acogedora, con todo lo necesario. Además, nos esperaron a pesar de que nuestro vuelo llegó de madrugada, lo cual fue un gesto muy apreciado. Si vuelvo a Cuba, sin duda volvería a su casa. Sin duda, recomendaría este lugar a cualquiera que busque una estancia cómoda y agradable.

Fanny and her family made us feel very welcome. She answered all our questions and gave us good advice regarding life and money in Havana. The beds and shower was comfortable, and the airconditioning helped us sleep well. What we also loved is the central location to visit all highlights. We would definetely recommend staying here!March 2024
La situación de la casa es inmejorable en el centro junto al paseo del Prado, a un paso de la Habana Vieja y a cinco minutos del Malecón o del Capitolio.
La casa está muy bien con zonas comunes amplias y una terraza que es una pasada la cual aproveché para los desayunos y preparar mis días con las anfitrionas. Los desayunos espectaculares y deliciosos.
Mi habitación estaba impoluta y muy amplia a lo que hay que sumar dos grandes ventanales coloniales que me permitían acceder a una terraza alargada. Aire acondicionado y ventilador que no me hizo falta utilizar, toallas, gel, varios enchufes, lampara con batería por si acaso....
Y por si todo esto fuera poco a mi llegada me estaba esperando Randy en la calle para recibirme, y sobre todo Cristina y Fanny, quienes llevan el peso de ese hogar pues para mi en muy poco tiempo así me sentí: por cosas de la vida finalmente te ves obligado a llegar solo a un lugar a miles de kilómetros y todo fue amabilidad, buenos consejos, que NO debía hacer, grandes gestos con otros clientes o solidaridad con otras zonas mas castigadas aun que La Habana, y cariño.
Una parte de mi corazón siempre estará en esa casa.
GRACIASFebruary 2024
We had a most enjoyable stay with Fanny and her family. They made us most welcome and were very helpful communicated with us prior to and during our 1st visit to Cuba- answering all my questions and assisting us with transport arrangements. As well as cooking us lovely breakfasts each morning Fanny and her mother gave us some good advice and guidance to help us enjoy our stay, we have never felt so safe and relaxed in an inner city area before.
We had a comfortable room up on the 1st floor and the on-suite bathroom had a lovely large shower with plenty of hot water. Breakfast was offered each morning on a rooftop terrace.
The home is in a great location in old Havana, everything was in easy walking distance. What a great experience Havana is!February 2024
La familia de Randy fue excepcional. Nos trataron muy bien desde el principio y nos dieron varios consejos a nuestra llegada a la casa/ciudad. La habitación tenía todo lo necesario y los colchones y sábanas eran muy cómodos. Toallas y gel de baño disponibles para usarlos. La ducha tenía buena presión y salía calentita rápidamente. El desayuno abundante y sabroso para empezar fuerte el día. La casa estaba en buenas condiciones y la localización era perfecta. La verdad es que disfrutamos mucho la estancia y repetimos al final de nuestro viaje. La familia es encantadora, en especial Cristina que nos trató fenomenal. Espero que estuviesen a gusto con nosotros. Volvería a repetir en otra ocasión.
