Sehr freundlich und hilfsbereite Gastgeber. Optimale Lage, direkt im Zentrum von Trinidad und gegenüber einer Bank. Gutes Frühstück. Leider hat man uns nicht gesagt, dass ein kleines Frühstück in der Buchung inkl. wäre, und hat uns somit ein grosses Frühstück serviert ohne nachzufragen, ob dies ok ist. Muste beim Check.out zusätzlich bezahlt werden. Wir hatten einen Wasserschaden im Zimmer, welcher nicht sofort behoben werden konnte, uns wurde dann gleich ein neues Zimmer angeboten.

Hola Iván
Me alegro que su estancia halla sido agradable. Mi Tía me ha dicho que son encantadores. Espero la próxima conocerlos personalmente.March 2020
Literie très mauvaise : deux matelas superposés, qui renvoyaient vers le milieu du lit. Douche : petit filet d'eau très froide. Logement au dessus de la partie restauration : très bruyant. Repas du soir décevant. Petit-déjeuner inégal (moins bien le 2ème jour).

I never stayed here as Gabriela stopped responding at some point.

Der Aufenthalt bei Gabriela in Trinidad war sehr schön, die Gastgeber sehr aufmerksam und freundlich. Hervorzuheben bleibt, der nette Frühstücksplatz im Innenhof mit eigener, kleiner Bar und leckeren Cocktails. Die Lage ist sehr zentral. Wir können die Unterkunft empfehlen.

Super Aufenthalt! Zimmer waren einfach eingerichtet aber sauber, Lucia (Gabrielas Mama) war extrem freundlich, hilfsbereit und hat auch für uns gekocht :) hatten auch eine Salsastunde die sehr witzig war. Für Backpacker oder eine Freundesgruppe die richtigen kubanischen Flair erleben wollen absolut empfehlenswert!
MANGO! :)January 2020

Great casa that is only getting better. Lucia was a really helpful host and taught us a lot about Cubans and the Cuban lifestyle. We really liked the small patio and the breakfast.

Die Familie war sehr nett und hat bei Fragen weiter geholfen.
Das Zimmer war bis auf die Badematte sauber. Was uns allerdings gefehlt hatte war ein Kühlschrank und eine Halterung für den Duschkopf.
Frühstück war gut und viel, man hat immer Obst, Saft, Kaffe, Omelette, Sandwiches und ab und zu auch Gebäck oder creps bekommen.
Als Tipp Taxis oder Touren sollte man außerhalb verhandeln. Wir hatten das Gefühl, dass es bei fast jedem Casa in dem wir waren außerhalb billiger ist.
