Liked: Jorge and Margot were the friendliest hosts we had during our trip, very helpful, hospitable and always concerned about us. The location of the house is great, everything important is very close. We got the best breakfast from their neighbour Marisa (gracias por los tostones!!). For other meals we could use Margot's and Jorge's kitchen.

Disliked: todo bien!

Liked: Very nice welcome and the owners are very friendly, helpful and honest. We very much appreciated the great recommendations of casas particolares in the other cities of cuba. We can only recommend this chain of casas, they were perfect!

Liked: An excellent place to stay, Jorge repeatedly went out of his way to make sure we had a great time in Cuba, including taking us on a tour of the local area to familiarise us, teaching us some basic Spanish ('go away or I'll call the police!') and arranging our onward accommodation in equally nice home-stays. Highly recommended.

Liked: The owner, George, was so friendly and welcoming. He made us feel like part of his family. You can tell that he really wants you to enjoy your time in Cuba. He can also help set up homestays in other cities and towns (we had an amazing time Vinales with another lovely family). He speaks perfect english, and is always looking to help. The rooms is lovely, and very clean. Great location too. Would definitely recommend!

Liked: Big & quiet room in the centre of Havana with luxuries such as TV, fridge, own bathroom and private entrance. Most welcoming, friendly and helpful hosts with good English and connections to excellent casas elsewhere in Cuba - something you'll learn to appreciate. We returned here for another three nights at the end of our holiday and warmly recommend!

Liked: Jorge and his family were excellent hosts and the location of their cute apartment is perfect, only one block away for the Malacon and the main street (Prado). They were absolutely faboulous people and we had a great time thanks to their hospitality and kindness. Felt very safe staying with them. We would recommend everyone to stay at Margot Homestay.

Liked: The location is perfect. 100 meters from the main street of Havana and a 5 minute walk to the Capitol. Tony and his wife are more than willing to help you out. They can arrange everything for you. The recommended us some others "casa particulares" in other cities, so we didn't need to search for a place to stay while we were traveling. For about 20-25 CUC you can stay in all the homestays they recommend.

Disliked: If you arrive at night. It's pretty difficult to find the place. The adress isn't the problem, because a taxi will get you there. From the outside there official entrance, so you need to bang on the door and hope someone will hear it, witch they always do.
