Laura and Rodney were very warm, friendly and welcoming and made us feel very at home. The Casa was very clean and our room spacious with a nice balcony. We paid 5cuc for the full Breakfast which was delicious and well worth it. Laura’s English was perfect and she gave us lots of advice on what to see and do in Havana. She was very helpful with arranging our travel to Vinales. The Casa is close to the centre, 5 mins walk from the square. We are 2 girls and felt very safe area to walk day and night. We would highly recommend staying here! Thank you Laura y Rodney - it was a pleasure. Becky & Marian x

Niurka and her son Hector were very welcoming. The room was clean and had 2 comfortable double beds, a nice clean bathroom and fluffy towels. Although Niurka didn’t speak English, we managed and she was so lovely, always smiling and was so kind. For extra 5 cuc the breakfast was delicious and best of our casas in Cuba - well worth it! Hector was very helpful booking some of our tours and spoke good English. The horse riding tour was very relaxing and got to see tobacco and coffee plantation. We also booked a collectivo (shared ride) to Cayo Julitas, be prepared for a bumpy ride! The Casa had WiFi, we would just have to let them know when we wanted it and they could switch it on. Excellent location, 2 minutes from the Main Street with lots of restaurants and bars to choose from. We would recommend El Billy restaurant as it was very reasonable with big portions, 1920 restaurants and Cubar. We are 2 girls and felt very safe at night here. We would highly recommend staying here! Thank you Niurka y Hector - it was a pleasure. Becky & Marian x

Norlis was very welcoming and his English was very good. He’s got a great sense of humour, always cracking a joke with us and we felt that he was extremely accommodating. His wife and family were also really lovely. We’d recommend you try dinner here. It was lovely traditional Cuban and restaurant quality. We love the food in Cuba and they were kind enough to let us into their kitchen to show us how some of the dishes are made. They were also able to do laundry at a reasonable price. Excellent location, less than 5 minutes to the centre. The room was very spacious and clean with a nice balcony - the real view and sounds of the local community! We’d highly recommend you stay here. It was a pleasure - Becky & Marian x

Maria and family were welcoming. The room and bathroom were spacious. We were able to access the WiFi zone from the balcony at the front of the Casa which was really useful (you need to buy an Etecsa card for this 1cuc for 1 hour). Maria and family did not speak much English which made it hard for us to communicate at times but we managed - maybe best to brush up on your Spanish. Excellent location with Great view of the city from the roof terrace. Definitely worth going to see the flamingo tour - try and get there early though even if you’ve booked in advance through a tour company (some people managed to jump the queue which meant a wait of over an hour). Rancho Luna was worth a visit, which we did straight after the flamingo tour - lovely beach, clear and calm waters. We would recommend staying here! Thank you Maria and family - Becky & Marian

The host cancelled the booking 34 days before the arrival date.
