We had a truly wonderful time staying with Marta on our first trip to Cuba! She arranged for us to be picked up at the airport at a very reasonable price and brought directly to the house. She gave a thorough introduction to the apartment and neighborhood and gave us great tips for how to get around the city in cost-effective ways and while experiencing more authentic parts of Cuban life. She provided us a delicious breakfast each morning and helped us coordinate other details of our trip, like transport to Vinales and a ride back to the airport. She is well connected with other service-providers and has a great knowledge of the city and country - some of our favorite experiences were simply sitting with her and her family learning about Cuban history. The location is a nice balance of being out of the hustle of old city but still close enough to get around easily. She could not have been more kind to us, and we look forward to returning again soon!
