I do not think I can make justice in this review to this amazing place, but here it goes.
I am not a connoisseur of the Spanish colonial architecture, but I would say that ‘La Realidad’ house is from or on the style of that period. The ample space with interior decoration I thought was masterfully done. The very white walls are beautifully complemented with the amazing decoration of the rooms and with the addition of unique lamps, colourful light switches. I loved all the doors and wanted to take one back home! For me the perfect house, a house that feel like a home, not only for a short stay but for long to permanent residence! I wish I could take it and put in central London for me to live in!!
But the stay is not only architecture. Our host: a wonderful and caring person who allowed me to feel totally relaxed, at ease and to enjoy the place. I never felt I was not but a permanent resident of the house. Extremely grateful that the place and host allowed my visit to Havana go beyond all my expectations. Not to mention the company of the others guests I was lucky to share the experience with. Muchas gracias por la experiencia.Host reply

We only stayed for one night but it was a great final night in Cuba! The house is so beautiful and the room was very clean and comfortable. Adriana was so welcoming and interesting to chat to and recommended some great places to go. Thank you so much

We have nothing but good things to say about our experience with Adriana! She is one of the most accommodating, caring and kind hosts we have ever stayed with! She helped us with valuable tips and was very supportive in our further vacation planning in Cuba. She also showed us many very great bars and locations in Havana. Apart from her great character, her accommodation was also very nice! It was clean and very nicely furnished with a beautiful balcony overlooking Havana. We would recommend anyone who comes to Havana , to stay with Adriana, because you are very well taken care of here.

Adrianna was so friendly and helpful, I highly recommend staying here!
Adrianna helped us to organise taxis and day trips and gave great recommendations of places to go for food and drinks. Her house was lovely; the rooms were spotlessly clean, very safe and well air conditioned. We had a great stay here :)May 2022
This guest awarded the host 5 hearts but didn’t leave any comments.
