I stayed here this spring and had a wonderful time! The owners, Ana and Pepe, have a beautiful house in the Vedado district. Both of them speak English, which was very helpful to me as a first time visitor. They also helped me a great deal with making arrangements for things like bus travel or accommodations in other cities. The food is very good and it is just a great place to relax after a long day of roaming around Havana. Highly,highly recommended. I felt like I was at home. Thank you, Ana and Pepe! (and Tony!)

I am a middle-aged woman, non Spanish speaker, traveling alone in Cuba. I arranged some accommodation through Pototo at Cuba Junky - a great way to do it, however, we had our wires crossed regarding Havana accommodation. When I arrived at the Viazul bus station in Havana, all I knew about my accommodation was that someone called Pepe was going to meet me. Even though I'd had no direct contact with Pepe and Ana, there he was, waiting for me! The angel!
I stayed two nights with Pepe and Ana, and agree with everything other tourists have said. Their home is very comfortable, attractive, spacious, airy, and secure (even an overnight security guard, though unnecessary, I thought. I felt no qualms at all about walking around the neighbourhood on my own). Havana is a noisy place, but the casa is on a cul-de-sac, so it's quiet. There is a market only four blocks away, a cadeca for changing money, a lovely church, and a chance to see a real Cuban neighbourhood. The casa is spotless and the meals delicious - great coffee and freshly squeezed orange juice with breakfast. Mmmmm! As an added bonus, because the casa has two large self-contained rooms for guests, I met very interesting people who were staying in the other room.
Both Pepe and Ana are lots of fun, speak pretty good English, and you honestly couldn't ask for more helpful and knowledgable hosts. Pepe let me accompany him to the market twice, arranged for a driver to take me downtown, and took me to the bus station himself when I left. I know he was going to wait the whole hour until he saw me safely off on the bus, except I told him I was okay.
Some of the interesting sights of Havana are within easy walkable distance of the casa.(the huge cemetery, Museo de Artes Decorativas, a cigar factory, John Lennon park) I walked right down 17th to the Malecon one day, visiting two sights on the same road, and ending up near the famed Hotel Nacional where you just have to have a mojito in the gardens out back overlooking the ocean. The trip back from downtown is 5-6 CUCs by taxi or coco taxi. Take a coco taxi at night. Going along the Malecon in the open air past Old Havana is fabulously romantic.
Anyway, I don't see where to rate individual aspects of my experience, but I'd give everything a 5, except location is a 4 since it's a bit far to be able to easily walk to Old and Central Havana. However, if you don't love staying with Pepe and Ana, I will be shocked! I'd go back in a flash!

i was only stayed there five days and i woud definitely recommend staying in ana casa particular.
the host are briliant and helful and they all speak english, which was for me very vital, they are reliable and very open people.

If you want a stress free holiday in Cuba then stay at La Casa de Ana. The hosts, Ana and Pepe will help organize whatever it is you want to do whilst in Cuba, whether it be just hanging out in Havana or touring the country. We wanted to travel to Trinidad, Santa Clara, the Isle of Youth and Vinales and Ana and Pepe arranged everything - the buses, the plane, the taxis, the other casas particulares. We stayed at Ana and Pepe's the first few days then went to Trinidad and Santa Clara, coming back to Havana, then off to the Isle of Youth. Then a return to Havana and off to Vinales and finally back to Havana again for a few days before heading home. All in all a memorable holiday and one made even more so by such a sweet couple. The breakfasts at La Casa de Ana were filling and good, the coffee was excellent, the house clean, tidy and comfortable and one felt right at home. I do highly recommend La Casa de Ana if you are planning a trip to Havana, Cuba.
