Summary: Thank you Melba and Alberto for a wonderful stay in Havana. Cozy accommodation with a beautiful view of Havana, safe and even the internet worked really well. Melba speaks great English, recommended restaurants in the area, made a great breakfast. Alberto was very nice, communication with both was perfect. Thank you also for the late check-out from the accommodation, it helped us a lot with the later bus trip. We also thank you for the taxi and Alberto for helping with the suitcases. Really wonderful nice people, if we are in Havana we will definitely come to this place again.:) Michaela & Stanley

Summary: I loved staying with Melba and Alberto in their family home. Their home is lovely and they are very welcoming and friendly. Melba speaks English enough to make sure you know and have everything you need. The room was clean, comfortable with an ensuite and its own terrace! The view was special. There's A/C and a fan, a safe. Melba cooked me a meal when I stayed. It was delicious and I ate in on the main terrace and watched the sun set over Havana. I gave a couple of days notice re the meal and everything was spot on. Communication before I arrived was efficient and instructions for arrival clear and easy to follow. I'd happily return. I even got a small leaving gift that I will keep forever. Thank you Melba and Alberto!

Summary: My father and I came to stay with Melba and Alberto after not being in Cuba for 13 years. Our experience was above and beyond any expectation I could have had. The owners are incredibly generous, friendly and helpful. First of all the place is easy to find and check-in was straight forward! The view of our room was spectacular with the malecon on one side and el capitolio on the other. Wifi is available all you have to do is get the log-in. Water pressure in bath is good and bed was comfy as well as AC available in our room. Breakfast was tasty and Melba's homemade fruit juices were so good. The hotel is in a great location because it is walking distance from old havana, museums, and other iconic havana sites. I couldn't recommend EL81 more! Muchas gracias Melba y Alberto, saludos y espero verlos pronto.

Summary: I stayed in Havana for two weeks for work, and the highlight of my trip was el81 Guesthouse. I cannot recommend it highly enough. From the warm hospitality to the convenient location and delicious food, it exceeded all my expectations. Whether you're a solo traveler, a couple, or a small group looking to explore Havana, this guesthouse is a gem. Melba, Alberto, and Sandra—a beautiful family—went above and beyond to make me feel welcome and comfortable throughout my stay. They thoughtfully arranged a taxi to pick me up at the airport and were always available to assist with anything I needed, ensuring that every detail of my visit was seamless. Their warmth and care truly made me feel at home. The guesthouse itself is outstanding. My room was spacious, spotlessly clean, and offered a breathtaking view of the city from the eighth floor (see photos!). My favorite spot, however, was the terrace. Melba and Alberto have created a lush garden filled with beautiful plants, including blooming orchids that added to the charm of my stay. Every morning, I enjoyed a delightful breakfast here (included with the stay), accompanied by the cheerful songs of their rescue canary, Max. Guests also have the option of having dinner prepared for only $15 per meal. Melba is an exceptional cook—her ropa vieja and soup are absolutely unforgettable. The location of el81 Guesthouse is ideal. Situated less than two blocks from the iconic Malecón on Calle Galiano (Italia)—a street U.S. President Barack

Summary: This is the perfect spot for solo traveller or two people. Well-located, lots of eateries around and just a few steps off Malecón. The host’s family was so friendly kind and welcoming. And the view omg the view. I can just sit at the balcony for hours in the morning and at sunset, nothing can beat the view

Summary: This is a well maintained apartment building very clean and has elevator., it is a block to the Malecon easy walking to restaurants, shopping and has weekend market where the locals sell goods and perfrom entertainment, here you get the real Havana experience. My favorite was that it was walking distance to Casa Música where you can enjoy big Cuban Bands dance to salsa and other styles of music. The apartment itself was super clean, the host lovely and the breakfast awesome!

Summary: El81 is a pleasure to visit. From the terrace for breakfast to its location 10 minutes to the Prado and the incredibly helpful family who host you, the apartment is a great find. The rooms each have a private bathroom and are very spacious for either a couple, a family travelling together or friends. You also have the ability to request home-cooked excellent and filling meals. Very much enjoyed this stay - with two teens! - and relaxing at night with a drink and looking at the Havana sky.
