Casa Goicochea

Rolando and Household are lovely and full of life energy and enthusiasum. Room with kitchen was one of the very best places we stayed, easy but all you need! We sold our bicycles to Rolando and now he plans to rent them to tourists for much less costly than you can uncover in other rentals in Habana, exceptional way to travel and see the city is on bike!

When we arrived, it turned out we werent staying at this hostel but at another casa particular owned by a family member around the corner. This wasnt a problem for us, as we felt well looked after by our host Oscar. He was a fountain of local info and extremely willing to help us and give us tips. He and his wife were extremely welcoming. When we returned to Havana a few days later, Oscar told us to look him up again which we did and he sorted us out with another spot to stay nearby as he was full. Neighborhood is around 25 mins walk to old Havana but situated near Plaza de la Revolucion. Nice period house. Excellent breakfast.

Casa Goicochea, run by Rolando Ocampo and his family, is most likely the nicest location I&ve ever stayed. All the amenities you need, and very superb value for money, with a lovely host household to create your stay enjoyable. On the first day, he showed me around the neighbourhood, showed me the local shops, the nearest money-changers, superb location to discover food etc. , everything! And made me feel right at home. The location is brilliant too. Its in a safe vicinity of vedado, with the malecon a half hour walk to your north, and habana vieja (tourist central, and deservedly so) a half hour to your east (where you pass centro habana along with the old capitolio). All in all, I&ve really enjoyed my stay here, and only wish it were longer. Gorgeous place, lovely family.

Casa Goicochea is a nice clean hostel situated in a silent neighbourhood. The employees is very warm and friendly and helpfull and from the hostel its easy to reach Havanas centre by foot. Plaza de la revolucion and also the national bus terminal are only a couple of blocks away.
