Schöne Unterkunft - El Cid - Habana Vedado
Wir waren das zweite Mal bei El Cid zu Gast und auch dieses Mal waren wir sehr zufrieden. Ein liebenswertes, charmantes Ehepaar und eine sehr entspannte Atmosphäre. Unser Zimmer mit 2 großen Betten + dem sehr schönen Bad waren sehr gepflegt, hatte Air Cond. + Ventilator. Hier konnten wir schön entspannen. Sehr zuvorkommend war auch der Service. Zudem ist die Lage der Casa Particular im Habana Vedado günstig. Ein weiterer Aufenthalt bei El Cid ist bereits in Planung.

Juan Carlos the host is amazing! He was so helpful with currency exchange and organising taxis, and even helped us with purchases local items. Spoke english well which was a huge bonus as well. Super welcoming place, very clean and comfortable, and we were able to come and go as we pleased. Location was ok depending on what part of town you wanted to explore, and very easy to find and navigate to. Thank you Juan for looking after us!
