Really Enjoyed this Hostel, the room with a bed in the loft and a comfortable sofa bed was perfect for my son and I sharing the room. Nice roof top terrace area. The AC, TV, and Fridge all worked very well. Easy walk to the Capital building area and down to Old Havana and the Harbor. Several cool bars with food literally 50 yards away. The staff could not have been nicer, very helpful. Even helped me change a flat tire on my rental car. I would stay here again. Cal G.

Stay and you won’t want to leave
I have stayed in 4-5 different locations in Old Havana of the course of numerous trips, and was on the lookout for a place to make my “regular spot”. After this trip, I have found it. The accommodations were very nice, the entire place is very clean and calm. The design aesthetic is beautiful. The staff could not have been more friendly and accommodating. The location is perfect for a safe and secure feeling of where you are staying and well populated short distance walks to numerous food and drink options and self-guided tours.

Its an excelent option to stay in the middle of Old Havana, near important spots to visit. Weather conditions make streets a little bit dirty and wet, but property and room are clean and in great conditions. Staff incredibly great!

I absolutely enjoyed my stay at this property. When traveling in Cuba, I chose to stay in the heart of Old Havana. The property is located in the heart, and is surrounded by a very poor community. However, it was a perfect!! The people in the community were very kind and the employees at the hostal was phenomenal, especially Augustin and Joanna.

Great Place to Stop in Havana
This is a lovely Casa Particular to stay in. They really care for you here and breakfast is excellent. The building is in good condition and the AC works well. You are walking distance from all the main sights in Havana, and it feels safe to walk round here. Downsides? as with all of Cuba the WIFI is a bit unreliable, and the mattress was not the most comfortable. HOWEVER - The pluses far outweigh any negatives so I recommend!

Recomendo
Quartos simples, sem muitos itens de conforto, mas limpos. A localização é otima por ser bem central, mas nao fica dentro da area turística do centro velho, que é bem cuidada. A rua estava mal cuidada, com sujeira e mau cheiro, o que nao atrapalha totalmente a estadia. Fica ao lado de uma escola, entao bem cedo é bem barulhento. Os funcionários sao atenciosos, simpaticos e tentam sempre ajudar
