Very close to the old habana, safe area, amqzing people.

Rafael and María were superb hosts: communicative, available, helpful and lovely to chat with while having a coffee on the roof terrace. Both the studio apartment and the other bedroom are comfortable and clean, all the windows open letting the breeze and natural light come through. The neighborhood is lively by day and calm by night, a short 15 minute walk from the Capitolio, three blocks from the seafront, etc. Can't recommend Rafael and María's house enough. Thank you for having us!

Perfect for a short stay in the city, owners are nice and welcoming too. A bit far from the busy areas, but has a nice local experience. Clean and not too expensive.

The Host is super nice, unfortunately the location is a bit far from everything and there's no shop whatsoever close by where you can actually buy anything useful to make yourself breakfast, let alone dinner (can't even find bread) so the kitchen is quite pointless... Better stay closer to the centre/Habana vieja

Staying with Cuban families can of course present a few more challenges than staying in mass / luxury tourist facilities, but in my view if people are prepared to share in a few of ordinary Cubans' difficulties (though we are spared most), the experience is much more rewarding. Rafael, Maria and family are friendly and helpful hosts. The guest accommodation is very spacious, and being at the top of the house helps avoid much of central Havana's air pollution. Just be aware that access is up about 50 stairs, including a narrow spiral staircase. Central Havana is one of the densest populated areas, and there's not much green space around, but is within a 20 minute walk to old Havana's charms, and just a few minutes from the Malecón seafront.

Very friendly, welcoming and helpful family. The place is quite central, many interesting spots for tourists are accessible by foot. Rafael and his family gave me a lot of valuable advice, since it was my first time in Cuba. They also took care of me when I fell sick the last couple of days. Thank you!
