beautiful house, full of positive energy. The family atmosphere, providing warmth and feeling like you belong there and you're not a guest. Family that cares about you will give you all the information about Cuba, about places to visit, places to avoid, places to hang out. The hosts will tell you cheapest way to go, how to avoid scams, where to shop, walk.The food that mistress is preparing will introduce you to Cuban cuisine and it is so amazing that long after you go from Cuba you will dream about it. You will always be safe and secure in La Terraza. If you need help at any time of day or nighh, the family will be there for you. Wonderful experience that I would recommend to anyone who wants to learn about Cuba and enjoy its beauty, La Teraza is the place to start.
It was so awesome there, and I love it so much. In the three nights staying there I had so much fun. I made many friends there and they helped me a lot. Also the food is great too. You`ll have some real local food. Everything`s great. Highly recommended~~
I had a great time at La Terraza! It is a nice small hostel, very intimate: you will feel at home! The rooms are nice and clean, and the terrasse is perfect to chill! Miguel always has very good recommandations about what to do in the city, and he is also a taxi driver so he can take you places. Anita's food is absolutely delicious, the best that you can find in Habana and for such a good price! (3 CUC for breakfast, 6 CUC for dinner) - huge portions! I highly recommand staying there, they are a wonderful family, super welcoming and friendly! I hope I'll get the chance to come back there one day!
The location is very good. You can walk to the Old Havana, coast line and to the area of Venado very easily and quickly. It gives more possibilities to be located 'in between'. The family is very friendly and takes cares of you. I happened to be ill while traveling and the hostel took care of me as if second family, only in Cuba. Rooms are basic, nice and beds are good. Locked closets are also spacious. The only negative thing I found was that warm showers were sometimes hard to get but I managed to do well with a little colder water. In general I would recommend this hostel. I had a good time!
Highly recommend! You really feel at home at this guesthouse. The rooms are located in the owners actual house, which is very clean and has an amazing roof top deck which overlooks the streets of Havana. We had an AMAZING traditional meal there also, which they offer as an extra for $6CUC. The food most definitely better than what you would get at a restaurant! So tasty and so much of it! Breakfast is also included, also very delish! Both the owner and his wife speak English which was very helpful also. It is however quite far from the old Havana center, but taxis there are about $10CUC!
