This Hostal is awesome! When you enter the place you can see it contrast with the outside area, Inside it is very clean, safe, front desk works 24 hrs, the suite #22 I stayed in was modern and you could think you are in another country because you have everything you can find even in the USA,I had a BIg bedroom with king size bed, a modern bathroom and a living room!! but you are in the center of the old Havana, so you can see the surrounding area as real as it is, You can walk to the malecon which is about 6 blocks from here and or to Del Prado blvd where you can find all kind of restaurants and live music, if you don't like to walk the staff can get you a taxi, The breakfast is included and it is awesome, with a variety of food and fresh natural juices! Try the "Carambola" for a change, Yoenky the person in charge of the breakfast buffet was there to tend to your every need during breakfast, Overall it was a great stay in this place!! TIP: At 9:00 PM there is a ceremony near the lighthouse there is a cannon shooting ceremony every night, they only shoot once so you have to be ready to hear it, or if you want to see it, look for it, very interesting. The dollar conversion in the street is about 260-300 Cuban pesos for 1 US dollar, in restaurants they pay much less.
