The first hotel we stayed in on arrival to Havana was Inglaterra, which was not much fun. After travelling around the entire island, we returned to Havana and managed to get a room in the COnvento de Santa Clara. Three of us were put into a huge room that was meant for groups of students, however our stay was nonetheless amazing. The staff are incredibly friendly despite the fact that I did not speak Spanish with much confidence at that point. Breakfast is decent, good for a hungry stomach as they are rather generous.
My only complaint is that we were told that we could get in to the hotel at anytime and that they leave one of the many doors open. So...I returned at about 10.30pm (not that late by Cuban standards!) and found all the doors closed and had to ask the police for help.
Other than that, a lovely place and a really good way to finish my not so restfull holiday on the best island, Cuba
