this place was horrible. the manager lady pulls scam for everything. You ask for collectivo(bus) to Trinidad, she charges 40 cuc, whereas the driver charges 35 cuc. Taxi to bus station, she asks for 10 cuc, and you get one from the street for 5 cuc. The list goes on and on. The place ran out of water, toilet paper, clean tower, and power while 3 day stay I was in. I thought it was just 'cuba thing'. I met people from other hostel who are paying 10 cuc, they never had that happen. Not a party hostel-rooftop is dirty, manager is ear-dropping every word in living room, TV and cleaning lady and her friend occupy 24/7 in second living room. I met with 4 other people in the hostel while I was staying. They all thought the same thing. First morning I woke up because the cleaning lady sleeping in living was so loud with a her friend at 8AM. Second morning I woke up because dog were barking at 7 AM and continued to bark till 10 am. Third morning, I woke up because of construction on one of the room at 8:30 am. The showers dont drain, water runs out and 'drips' out of facet, bathroom toilet paper is out at 5pm and cleaning lady says they are out till morning. We had no clue why this place had a such a good reviews from all over internet. I highly dont recommend it. You can get much better hostel for 10 cuc with cold water (which you have to buy every day because you cant drink from faucet), breakfast, and closer location to old havana. At night the neighborhood get dark because there is no street light and it gets very hard to find the hostel. When I came back from tour of another city, I moved to another hostel, and it was so much better. This hostel, in my opinion, is living off of wrongful reputation. Maybe it was good in the past, but not any more.

Pricilla was a wonderful host. The ladies in the second floor where the hostal is were sweet and kept the rooms very clean. The neighborhood is safe but be careful with strangers approaching you since they will try to get some change for helping you or will just ask. Also don’t fall for their cigar trick, there is no special fair offer “today only”. Other than that, the area is walking distance to the university (about 30 minute walk) and to old Havana it’s also walking distance.

Good prices, nice breakfast (5$), nice interior. Short narrow dorm beds, odd system with no keys and people waiting up to let you in
