Yanye y Roberto són unas joyas. Te tratan como familia y te sientes en casa. El espiritú real de un hostel te encontraras aquí. Muy recomenable.

So far, after several trips to Havana, it's the best hostel I know. Besides the dedication... the atmosphere is very homey. I loved it.

El mejor lugar del mundo ❤️ Son una familia para todos los viajantes que aqui pasan. Te ayudan en dudas y indicaciones. Cuba ahora pasa por un dificil momento del bloqueo de Estados Unidos, pero Roberto e Iania hacen de todo para que estés bien y cómodo en su hogar. El desayuno es un momento especial. Roberto es una de las personas más inteligentes que yo conosco y te va a hablar de todo de politica. Iania es como una mamá que te organiza la vida y se preocupa con que cada viajante est...

Loved it! I felt like home, Yania and Roberto are the sweetest. They prepared a delicious breakfast, helped me wonder around my taxi and discover the city. Event though the situation in Cuba is really difficult they showed me how welcoming are the Cubans. I will definitely come back

If you want to feel like home, then you should stay here! They will do everything to make you feel comfortable during your stay, give you recommendations for Havana, show you around, organise stays in other parts of Cuba including transport, or just to have a conversation. I used to stay with them during the time when the US oil embargo took place and they shared everything with their guests when the situation remained delicate - that’s when you get to know one’s real character and soul!

Es ist etwas schwierig ist mit warmduschen, vielleicht findet der Vermieter eine Lösung. Zudem gibt es für mehr Strom fals 8 Stunden Stromunterbrechung, dies gilt aber für fast ganz Kuba und vom Stromanbieter abhängig. Dennoch lässt sich sagen, die Unterkunft ist wirklich wunderbar und genauso die Betreuer, die mit dem Herzen dabei sind. Dafür bedanke ich mich hier bei dem Vermieter und aber auch unserem Vermittler Hostelworld

No proper water or electricity, no wifi. I believe it was more because of the political situation but our room changed, she told me she cancelled my booking before my visit but I did not receive anything. They changed our money with high currency, the man take a more money than he should (since I also paid online ?) Overall I did not stayed there and made another booking.

J'ai passé deux nuits chez Red Hostal qui se sont très bien passées et où j'ai très bien dormi. Anya est à disposition pour répondre a tous les questions et à vous donner des informations sur La Havane et comment si déplacer. Je recommande cet hostel 🤗.

located in a less touristy area, closer to la fábrica, there are many food options in the area. the main reason for the amazing stay are the hosts. if there is any hope in understanding the reality behind your local media it's through traveling. i encourage all interested geopolitics and history to discuss and learn about Cuba with Roberto.

Inmejorable estancia en La Habana. Rober y Yania me hicieron sentir como en casa, dando todas las facilidades y ayudándome con el transporte y el resto de alojamientos que tuve durante mi viaje por Cuba. Sin duda recomendaría este sitio a cualquiera que quiera pasar unos días por la Habana.

The host treated us like family and made us feel welcome. They showed us around, now I feel like I have a second family in Habana. Above all else they were very nice and very helpful our whole trip there. If you don't book with Yanni then you made the wrong choice.

Tuve una excelente estancia, los dueños me recibieron como en casa, me ayudaron a saber cómo moverme en la ciudad y hacia el aeropuerto. El trato es muy bueno y el ambiente en general es muy agradable; a pesar de no contar con wifi me compartieron datos móviles de su celular para poder conectarme cuando necesitaba y la comida que cocinan la disfruté mucho. A demás las camas son cómodas y limpias.

Staying at this hostel was the best travel decision I’ve ever made. It was my first time traveling alone, and I never felt isolated – the welcome was incredible. I had booked 2 nights… but ended up staying 10! Staying here is the best thing that can happen to you in Cuba. Yania will do everything to make your stay simple and unforgettable. She can help you with anything you need. You could try another place… but it definitely won’t be as good.

IMPORTANT - Yania's number has changed! It's now: +53 5 4256161 Hostal red gave me a calm and caring space while on a hectic trip travelling by myself! It's in a chill, pretty and less touristy bit of the city - but only 10-15 minutes by the cheap collective taxis to the centre! But the best thing is the host Yania, who allows endless travellers to make her home into their home as well. She'll take you under her wing and help you organise trips to other parts of Cuba, and give you plenty of ...

La mejor dirección para alojarse en La Habana. La anfitriona, Yania, es la principal razón del éxito de mi viaje. Te ayudará en todos los aspectos de la vida, desde el cambio de moneda hasta la tarjeta SIM de Internet, incluso en caso de imprevistos (ella sabe de lo que hablo). En otras palabras, no puedo más que recomendarlo. ;)

IMPORTANT - Yania's number has changed! If you want to book at Hostel Red (which I absolutely recommend), contact: +53 5 4256161 Yania, the host at hostel Red, is the most caring and kindest person. She helped me so much during my time in Cuba: with exchanging money as well as the organization of the rest of my trip (she has a huge network of other casa particular hosts who were all great). Plus, she made the best breakfast (with fresh mango juice everyday) and looked after us like we were fam...

Such a tranquil home away from home. Yania is the most generous and caring host you could wish for; she helped organised so much for us. We’re very grateful! IMPORTANT: the number is wrong on hostelworld

OMG it was the perfect place to stay in Havanna. Not a lot of hostels in town, so a great place to meet people and ALSO the host lady is the most genuine and loving cuban person that i met, the breakfast is phenomenal and included in the price, those fried sweet bananas the best ones i tried in Cuba. It feels like Im overexxagareting but I'm not, I never write reviews, but this place deserves it! Also the ladys number changed: 54256161 this is thenew one!
