"Juanita and her family - including Mr. Evelio - were very friendly and helpful re: information about bus tickets, getting to the beach, food options etc.
"The room was clean and comfortable with a functional fan and air conditioning unit. Breakfast was huge and the homemade guava jam was delicious! "They also provided filtered water that we could take with us when we went out which was very convenient. In terms of activities the casa is very close to most of the popular plazas, the Malecon, Transtur bus pick up points etc. which made our sightseeing a breeze. "Like most Casas in Old Havana there were a lot of stairs but its good exercise :-)" ayanawalters, tripad visor 120317 |
