Staying at Martirena's hostal was one of our best decisions in Cuba, the house is an oasis, the hosts are extremely welcoming and warm, friendly, helpful and discreet. You get your own private bedroom room, kitchen, bathroom and lovely porch, extremely nice breakfast with specialties that the hosts cook for them and guests, help to get a cheaper taxi from/to your destinations, advices/suggestions, flexible checking in/out and overall the experience that you are very very welcome! A no-brainer if you want to stay in Santa Clara.
