Central in Havana
Negativo: Hostal com banheiro compartilhado com outros hóspedes e com a dona da casa e filho. Super simples, o hostal tem aparencia decadente e suja. Fica no quarto andar e se você tem bagagem, tem que levar tudo no muque. Se você for como eu que anda o dia inteiro, é muito cansativo subir as escadas do local no fim do dia. Zona super barulhenta, os dois aptos que a dona tem para alugar ficam de frente para a rua Luz. Ela aconselha levar protetor de ouvido ou você terá que estar muito cansado para poder dormir com a barulheira durante as noites. O povo cubano parece que näo dorme. O apartamento é central, perto da Plaza Vieja, mas numa zona feia e suja. Cuidado ao fazer câmbio com a dona do hostal, a cotacao dela é mais baixa do que fazer câmbio na rua. Ela me deu 240, quando na rua era 280. Ponto positivo: a dona do hostal é super prestativa e ajuda com dicas e taxis.

Hard Pass!
This is a casa/room in an apartment style complex. The complex is in a convention location for Old Town, the ferries, and the P12. Unfortunately, the complex and casa are not very clean. The casa smells of smoke, as the tenants that live there smoke a lot, even though the room is "non-smoking". Additionally, the shared bathroom, that has 2 doors, 1 going into your room and 1 going into the common area of the casa, does not lock between the bathroom and casa. So anyone can walk in on you when you are using the bathroom. We've stayed in about 40 casas over the 2 months we've spent in Cuba and this was by far the worst. We are very well aware of the obstacles that Cuban's face, and "is Cuba" after all, but we also know casa owners can make a nice home for themselves and their paying customers. Aside from our beachside casa in La Boca, Trinidad, this was our most expensive casa this visit. Be aware, the room faces a very "lively" calle and only has window louvers to block out noise...so it was by far the noisiest room we had in Havana or all of Cuba. Luckily, I sleep through anything! Also note, there is no door bell at the gate into the complex or sign for the casa, so gaining access to the casa to checkin is next to impossible. If you do get through the gate, go up 3 flights and you'll see the casa sign on the wall. This information is missing from the booking details. Luckily we met someone who knows them. We would not stay here again.

A great casa stay!
We thoroughly enjoyed this casa stay in Old Havana. The neighbourhood is very friendly vibrant and fun. Dayami and Miguel are a very friendly couple. Great hosts, welcoming and definitely made us feel welcomed. We felt very safe at all times and were able to ask our hosts for help any time and they always did their best to help us. Weather is was with directions, ordering safe taxis and with information about Havana infrastructure.

Do not stay here on a Saturday night!!!
Spent 2 nights here. Arrived on the Saturday after a very long flight to Havana from London via Madrid (2 flights). Didn't sleep the night before so already tired. A party was happening in the flats above (drunk Cubans singing Marc Anthony songs badly with some banging). It was funny at first but with the 5 hour time difference and late arrival it soon became exhausting. I used earplugs but it was like trying to sleep in a nightclub or the front row of a rock concert! This property should not be renting out the room on a Saturday. It isn't fair to people. Sunday night was fine.

I had an unforgettable trip to Havana and a great week staying at this Hostal. It was only a couple of blocks from the Plaza Vieja and only about 10 minutes walk to the bus stop for the beach/tours. I spent my birthday relaxing on the beach, and in the evening I smoked Cuban cigars and drank rum with Miguel on their terrace. The room was clean and the air-con was a blessing at night.

Close proximity to Plaza Vieja and the room was ok. There was no water in the shower which a neighbour helped to fix. Hosts were pleasant and polite.

Dayami was a brilliant host, very friendly and very welcoming. We really enjoyed our stay. The property is on a 3rd floor, and is located just a 2 minute walk from plaza vieja where there is plenty of places to eat. Dayami recommend ear plugs before arrival this was very good advice. As Cuba tends to be a bit nosier that what you might be use too :). There was air conditioning and a fan in the room which was very useful. Dayami was also able to assist with our money queries. Highly recommend this accommodation.

The host is very nice and helpful! She helped to call a taxi to the airport and helped me to take my luggage to the taxi in the mid night of 3 am! So warm! Although it is in old area, you will feel very safe even at night. It is very interesting to walking around this area from the casa. Strongly and highly recommend this casa.

Die Unterkunft liegt zentral in Havanna Vieja. Die Gastgeberin ist offen,herzlich und lustig. Sie versucht ihren Gästen jeden Wunsch zu ermöglichen und man fühlt sich als Teil ihrer Familie. Da Havanna laut ist und die Unterkunft in einer Gasse liegt,sollten Ohropax eingepackt werden! Ansonsten ist die Unterkunft sehr zu empfehlen. Wir würden wiederkommen!
