6/10 Good
30 Nov 2023
This is no longer the casa of Ivette and Ronel. They divorced but still work together. Ronel has a guest house two doors down which is what we thought we were booking based on lonely planet recommendation.
The room was spacious and clean, but the overall hospitality and charges for extras were not very good compared to other places we stayed in Cuba. They helped us book a taxi to another town but told us there were no collective taxi options. But we met travelers from another local homestay who had arranged collective taxis to save money,
We had lunch at the casa when we got there, but it wasn't that great, so we ate our other lunch and both dinners at other places nearby. Breakfast was good.
Laundry was very expensive ($22 for a small load), and the charges were not disclosed up front.
Overall, it was a decent room, but I'd recommend somewhere else because the hospitality did not live up to standards we came to expect in Cuba.
