Nice place to stay near the old town
We really enjoyed our stay here. The host was helpful and nice and the room comfortable. Our flight left in the evening and we were able to store our luggage in the casa and use the shower before we left. The place was situate near the old town.

Casa muito acolhedora. Os proprietários Armando e Quirênia são muito gentis e atenciosos. Nos deixarem muito à vontade. O café da manhã era espetacular, apesar de não estar incluído, valeu muito a pena pagar a parte. Já o espaço (quarto e banheiro) são um pouco apertados, mas super bem aproveitados.

Correct
La casa est très bien placée à La Havane. TV ne fonctionne pas. la chambre ne correspond pas aux photos du site. L'hôte a été parfois de bons conseils (restaurant par exemple quoique un peu cher pour Cuba (80 EUR)) ms pour la suite de notre séjour, l’hôte nous a fortement déconseillé l'un des hôtels que nous avions déjà booké dans une autre ville sous prétexte que l’hôtel n'était vraiment pas top alors qu'il s'avère en fait que cet hôtel a été le meilleur de tout notre séjour de 2 semaines. nous supposons donc qu'il s'agit d'une histoire de commissions derrière si nous annulions cette réservation. un peu déçus.

Bien situé
Logement bien situé dans la vieille ville. Les propriétaires ne parlent pas du tout anglais mais font des efforts pour comprendre ce que l'on souhaite dire. Avoir des notions d'espagnol est quand même préférable, mais c'est vrai dans tout Cuba. Petit déjeuner copieux.

a recommander
famille très accueillante et toujours a disposition afin de conseiller sur les visites de la ville et du pays. excellent petit déjeuner. chambre et salle de bain très propre. le seule bémol peut être est la taille de la chambre un peu petite pour un couple. bonne localisation car près de la Havana vieja, 5 min a pied.

Great hotel, Exceptional hospitality
this was the perfect place to start my Cuban trip. I arrived on my own, late at night but someone was waiting to welcome me to the casa. The owners are wonderful and very helpful in offering ideas as to where to go, what to do and how to get to your next destination. I also stayed here on my return trip home. The location is excellent, the rooms are comfortable and clean and the breakfast is terrific. Gracias para tratarme como parte de la familia! Hasta pronto. Un abrazo muy fuerte!

Schöne Unterkunft mit herzlicher Gastgeberin.
Kirenia ist eine hervorragende, herzliche und zuvorkommende Gastgeberin. Sie verfügt über ein großes Wissen über Sehenswürdigkeiten, Ausflüge und Reisemöglichkeiten im Land und organisiert auf Wunsch alles. Die Unterkunft liegt zentral in der Altstadt, mitten im Kubanischen Leben, die Sehenswürdigkeiten sind fußläufig zu erreichen. Das Viertel ist sehr lebhaft. Das Frühstück ist ausgezeichnet mit frischem Obst, Obstsaft, Eiern, Schinken, Käse... Absolut empfehlenswert.
