floor apartment that is right

hot water and shower.
An anteroom is accessible and even big enough
for private salsa/rhumba lessons.
Olga and her husband are extremely hospitable and eager to
converse with you.
$25 a night, includes an excellent breakfast.

Mercedes y Rosy
Calle 17 No. 5, Apto. 3, E/ N y O, Vedado
Email: mercyprado@usa.net
Tels: (537) 32.8232. |
A beautiful apartment in an excellent
central
location near the Malecon and clubs like Gato Tuerto.
A sitting room adjoins the bedroom,
and the red leatherette furniture recalls
Florida in the 1950s.
At $35 a night, it's a bit more expensive
than some private homes,
but well worth the extra money.
Dinner or breakfast is extra,
though the authentic home-style Cuban cuisine is some of the
best most visitors will encounter on the island.
Boulevards recommended,
July 1999.

a restored old colonial-style home
in the quiet Kohly neighborhood rent for $30 each.

It's worth having a car or driver on call to

though you can walk two blocks to Hotel Kohly,
where cabs wait out front.
