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.

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.

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.

It was not real as it was being shown on the homepage. The are was loud and the streets were dirty. Very loud surroundings and the room is very narrow . I had to move out after staying there for one night.

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.

Dayami is a very nice woman. We have fun time in Havana.

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.

The place wasn't as bright and welcoming as I thought it would be after having seen the photos on Expedia.
Hosts were helpful and lovely.
If you are smoke sensitive, please be advised that the owner smokes cigare in the house, the smoke couldn't be smelled in the bedroom though.
I was there over the weekend, so noise was probably at its peak at night. Owners were very quiet and respectful, but people on the street were talking loudly, screeming, singing until 4:30-5am.
Location is convinient, it's very centralized.
It's easy to walk around the Old Havana from the house.

We had a great stay at Cristina y Dayami! The host was exceptionally pleasant and helpful, and even though we don’t really understand spanish, we managed to understand her «spanglish». All in all a great stay.

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.

Nice and helpful family, lovely room with a nice balcony, good bed and good situated in Habana Vieja.
Only you need to be prepared (earplugs) for the noise of the city - especially since it is Habana ;-)

I got there to check-in, there was nobody at the location. Stood there and waited, rung the bell, knocked on the door and there was no answer. Horrid.

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.
