Liked to stay there
First of all, the hotel is being modified. Her man is working alone to tune this hotel. The first impression when you open the door is WOW the living room part is already done, and the veranda has an amazing view over the ocean. He knows what he is doing. For our room, it was big enough, they put in there a second bed after I request it (I didn t want to share a bed with my mom). The bathroom is already new, and was very pleasant to see. Sleep was very good, the mattress is quite compf. Unfortunately I was just 1 night there as it was our last night in cuba. from there to the old town it's like 20-30 min walk, or a short taxi trip. Personally if you want to do the old town only and only walk, then I suggest to rent something in that area. only thing which I could complain about, is that the room is quite dark. but that's all. But I have to admit from my 5 casas I took, one was only bright with sunlight
