Hello everyone!!! It was 2nd time that myself with my wife and her sister visited Havana. This time we choose to stay with Cuban family to face a different experience and to get closer to extraordinary everyday life. Well, let me tell you, that was the best experience we faced. Mrs. Maritza and her family treated us from the very first minute of the very first day as the members of their own family. She was taking care of everything what we were asking for. From calling the taxi, to provide us we certain information about shopping, to giving us map of Havana, to giving us access to internet and of course bringing every morning fresh bread. Awesome!!! The cleaning lady, Mrs. Yolanda was very friendly and our rooms were cleaned every day. I have to say that non of us is speaking Spanish, but our communication was very good and kind of extraordinary. We communicated with smile and our hearts...and sometimes with hands as well. I wish world political leaders learn how to do this the way we did. By staying for almost 3 weeks allowed us to observe and evaluate how they approach travelers and how professionally Mrs. Maritza and her family is taking care of business. We arrived as a strangers, but we left as someone who discovered new friends for a lifetime....and that is what we are calling the greatest travelling experience. We can discover beautiful places, eat good meals and enjoy the life but I believe that this days it is not so easy to find friends. The only negative comment that we have is that to rate Mrs.Maritza properly, Home-stay doesn't provide us with enough hearts. Honestly and from the bottom of our hearts, Mrs.Maritza... WE ARE GIVING YOU 10 HEARTS!!!.... and we would like to tell you that they are much bigger that the one atop of this review. Without hesitation we would like to recommend to anyone who is planning to visit Havana or Cuba to choose Mrs. Maritza and her family house as a place to stay. One more time, thank you very much for having us at your place. Regards, Christopher, Anna and Eva Toronto, Canada 06 March 2017
