Beautiful, clean hotel in a terrific location. Great view of the city from the top floor where breakfast is served. They had terrific food in the restaurant as well! Some of the staff was friendly, all were efficient and some spoke English very well. It's Cuba is the excuse for everything they can't do immediately (very typical of the entire country) and more often than not entirely correct but rather a language and culture difference so sometimes they can do it but it will take time. Also, when you book a "double room", it is two twin beds not a double or queen bed. So if you want one big bed, book a room with a King bed. There was no hot water in the whole downtown area when I was there due to a water main break which was totally not the fault of the hotel but they managed to keep the hotel very clean and the food was still excellent! There a leak in the bathroom coming from a large stained area on the ceiling that dripped my entire stay. Despite my unsuccessful attempts to communicate this to the cleaning staff, they never put a bucket put under it so I used towels to soak up it up and keep it quiet at night. I would definitely stay here again if I visit Havana again.
