Although we arrived a day later due to a delay, Rolando and his wife welcomed us warmly. The casa is located close to El Capitolio, and really in the old city center. Great breakfast and spacious bathroom. Thank you for your hospitality!

The room was beautiful and big with an adjecent bathroom. it was clean and cleaned every day and breakfast was provided as well whenever you wake up. The room is right in the center of Havana so you won't miss out on anything. There are plenty amenities available in the room such as a TV and a fridge and plenty of closet space. I would recommend this place for sure!

Die vier Tage bei Roly und Lucy waren wunderbar. Morgens gab es ein kleines, aber feines Frühstück. Roly war immer sehr hilfsbereit und hat uns sowohl eine Unterkunft in Trinidad vermittelt, als auch zu einem tollen Ausflug verholfen, obwohl wir nur sehr wenig Spanisch sprechen. Das Zimmer mit Bad war sehr sauber und verfügt über eine Klimaanlage, die allerdings nicht temperaturverstellbar war, sodass es nachts recht kühl wurde. Insgesamt würden wir die immer wieder bei Roly und Lucy übernachten.

My friend and I had a very nice and lovely stay in Havana at Roly's place! The accomodation is in the centre of Havana and you can easily walk to the old town and any other nice places nearby. The room was nice and clean and Roly made a very good breakfast as well. He was very gentle and supported us a lot, because we had no idea which cities to visit and which places to go in Cuba. So he helped us making plans, called some friends where we could stay at during our journey and organized a transport for our next step. On our way back, we passed by Havana again and even if he didn't have the capacity to host us again, he found a place for us next door. Also, he encouraged us to speak Spanish!:) I can defininetly recommend the stay and the contact and would return to Roly's place any time I visit Havana.

Roli is an excellent host: competent, very helpful, friendly, polite and as a single female traveler he made me feel welcome and I felt totally safe in Roli's casa. I recommend him wholeheartedly.

Rolando was the perfect host. We got to know some of his family and friends who were all very nice and helpful. The 2 rooms we had were both good in ventral Havana. Rolando booked us really good homes in Vinales and Trinidad too. He has good connections and is a very helpful man. We highly recommend staying with Rolando.
Thank you
