Best place to live in Havana hands down
I stayed at Al Sol quite a few times during my stay in Havana. It was such a delight that i kept coming back. One of the biggest rooms I have seen in Havana, cleanliness top notch, peaceful, everything is in working order. The staff who prepared breakfast to cleaning ones are all smiles and lovely souls. More than anything the couple who runs these apartments are the best I came across in Cuba. They will go out of their way to help you. They are always at your disposal to provide any assistance even when they are not physically present. Big thanks to you guys to make my days in Havana easier and enjoyable. Would highly recommend to anyone who is visiting Havana and wants a comfortable accommodation in Old Havana. It's almost next to all the landmarks. Plenty of good food places nearby. It was a delight staying at Al Sol.

Excellent location which puts it in a busy part of Havana Viejo. Al Sol is an Oasis in a sea of chaos.

Al Sol I took a room to find it leaked water from the rain however you would think this would be corrected given the price of the room. Also to pay for the Internet per day was off putting.

2/10 Poor

The hosts were friendly but the property run down & in a very bad unsafe location. Terrible noise from the street & beggars sifting through bins had to pick our way through dog muck & rubbish.

The location, high ceilings and doors, lovely tile on the floor in the hallway made that we booked. The owner and the lady’s from the housekeeping are also super friendly and want to help with everything. Until this point a 10 out of 10. But unfortunately there is a terrible mould smell in the room and you see where it is. Three nights and I got trouble with my throat. It’s not healthy to sleep in. Also the bathroom smells nasty when the air parfums don’t mask it and the toilet became clogged several times.

Lovely spacious, clean room - great breakfast included, very friendly and helpful staff. Awesome location a minute away from Plaza Vieja where there are lots of dining spots with a fabulous vibe and music. Close enough walk to waterfront and to the on-off bus stop at San Jose Artisans market - which btw is very good. Bought a few pieces of art! Would definitely book again.

The Hotel stuff was really nice and helpful, we booked. We really recommend to book the excursions from the Hotel, the trip to Vignales was wonderful, additional thanks to the driver, he was really nice, positive, gave a lot of information and tips. Also we’ve booked the Havana trip with classic car, the car was very good looking and in very good condition. The hotel stuff helped with any questions and assisted us on all the questions and requests, thanks a lot!

The room was excellent and the renovated bsthroom amazing. Apparently there is wifi available at a cost but we were not able to connect as we were never given the password. Which as a foreigner traveling with your only connection being wifi it was unsettling not being able to communicate or check on our transportation arrangements. We were left in the dark electronically. This was the only negative part of our stay.

Conveniently located in Habana Vieja. Breakfast was a great start to the day and the staff was so nice. I felt like I was staying with family. I’d definitely stay here if I’m able to return to Cuba in the future.

Al Sol is a charming accommodation for a couple days in Havana. It is a bright, spacious and quiet place just a couple minutes away from the Plaza Vieja!! The rooms are very well kept with tall ceilings and our host was most warm and accommodating. The room we booked had an issue with the toilet flushing and immediately we were transferred to an even nicer room which we absolutely loved! Our breakfast was made with care and served with a warm smile to start our day off right!! We even met the owner of the place who was such a gentleman. Finally, since we had a whole day in Havana before leaving, they were so kind to store our bags until we left the city. I would definitely stay here again—I wish I remembered the names of the two lovely ladies we were dealing with—a big gracias to you both :)

What we loved most about the property was the professionalism and courtesy extended to use by the host and in Particular Anamaya. She was very accommodating and always willing to assist with anything that we had a question on. The place was clean and modern and very close to many food places and groceries stores. As well as the craft market. It was a 1 minute walk from one of the Main squares in Old Havana that was surrounding by entertainment, eateries and even a spa. We loved it so much that we actually stayed there again on our return through Cuba.
