Excellent stay in Vedado. Can't fault it. The entire family made us feel at home..opened up their home and heart to us. The accommodation was clean en-suite room with AC and a ceiling fan. We also had access to their veranda/garden outside space. The linen and towels were changed on the 4th day as well. Gicela spoke good English and was very helpful. Also introduced us to a local restaurant personally and explained the Cuban cuisine and our requirements to the staff as we are both vegetarians. Breakfast was well presented and ample..fruits, bread coffee etc. and made by Gicela's husband. The accommodation is well positioned in a quiet street with easy access and a very cheap bus service into central Havana. Also walking distance to University and hospital areas. Overall - excellent value for money. Better than hotel. The host family was adorable. They always had time for us despite their busy lives. I would highly recommend this accommodation without any reservations, if you want a real middle class insight into a Cuban way of life.

Excellent accommodation with good clean facilities. The bed linen was crisp and clean. The towels, although clean could do with an update, a little threadbare but adequate. The host was friendly and despite our limited Spanish made us feel very welcome. Thanks goes to the host for allowing us to use their kitchen facilities to make our own hot instant coffee. The house is well placed for viazul bus station - 5mins walk. Overall can't fault it. Also friendly, well behaved small dog buzzing around made it a homely stay.
