while above the artist lane with graffiti and interesting sculptures, this apartment is in quite a 'local' area of La Habana, with a 5-6 block walk to get to cabs or restaurants in the National hotel area. A meter taxi to or from old town was around the 10cuc mark, but a non metered driver could go as low as 5cuc. Breakfast and dinner are provided by a family that live below the apartment. The portions are very generous and the cooking wonderful, I would have eaten their food more, only it's lonely in the apartment by oneself (single traveller) as opposed in a restaurant and meeting new acquaintances.
