The hostel "La Realidad" is a top recommendation for a stay in Havanna. It is located in a very good position so you can quickly reach the center. By using a taxi, you can reach the Viazul station in maybe 5-10 mins. The room was very nice and had a lot of space. The private bathroom was in a very good condition and warm water was available all the time. Adriana is a super nice host and very helpful. The breakfast offered was very delicious.

Al momento de llegar fue un recibimiento muy familiar. Adriana es una persona muy hermosa con la cual pasamos horas hablando siempre con un café de por medio.
El lugar es muy cómodo, privado, muy limpio y una calidad de detalle muy hermoso. Las fotos de las habitaciones que salen en esta pagina son exactas.
Vedados es un lugar muy lindo, seguro y con mucha accesibilidad para poder llegar a la Habana vieja.
Otro de los detalles que nos sorprendió favorablemente, fue el marcado hincapié a la no discriminación en todo sentido.
Gracias Adriana por toda tu confianza en nosotras, tu madre es una persona muy agradable y las chicas que te ayudan son muy amables y de confianza.Gracias por todo y esperamos volver.

Las habitaciones muy limpias y correctas y la atención esmerada. Recomendable. Quizas algo lejos del centro lo que obliga a tomar taxi para todo. Evitar el taxi que recomienda la casa: Umberto. Es caro e intenta permanentemente cargar mas de la cuenta sin respetar la tarifa que deberia cumplir y colocarte restaurantes de amigos suyos. Mejor elegir otro taxista o tomar los "no amarillos" por la calle

Muchas gracias por ser honesto en cuanto a lo que el alojamiento se refiere: habitación, servicio y atención. Sin embargo, no es cierto que la casa recomiende ningún taxista, no sé en base a qué usted ha escrito que nosotros recomendamos ningún taxi? Usted pidió que le gestionáramos servicio de recogida en el aeropuerto para su llegada y eso hicimos. Fue usted el que eligió a Humberto para otros viajes, y los problemas que tuvieron entre ustedes con los restaurantes y las reservaciones fue solo entre ustedes, la casa no tiene nada que ver. Eso fue algo que usted eligió y le salió mal. No nos involucre. La casa tiene contacto con varios taxistas y según el que esté disponible es el que hace el servicio al aeropuerto. Tampoco es cierto que los huéspedes tengan que tomar taxi para todo, eso fue lo que usted eligió, fueron sus decisiones. No nos involucre en lo que no nos corresponde como hospedaje.

Nos recibió Adriana, la hermana de Alina. Adriana es muy simpática y agradable. Además puede hacerte recomendaciones muy buenas para tu visita en La Habana. Nos ha encantado nuestra estancia aquí. La casa y las habitaciones están decoradas con mucho mimo. La habitación está perfectamente climatizada y es cómoda. Sin duda una buena elección.

Muchas gracias for a wonderful time in Havana! Your warm and gracious welcome made our time in Havana extra-special. Enlightening conversations over delicious Cuban coffee and tea to insights into life in Cuba are fond memories we will always cherish. The house and the room are beautifully designed and our view over the rooftops of Vedado added a lovely touch. Thank you, thank you! We hope to see you soon again. <3
