Casa de Kety is an excellent place to stay on your trip to Havana. It is a casa Particular ( a Cuban bed and Breakfast). Jaime and Kety are very nice and attentive, the breakfast was great every day. Everything was clean and well kept. It is centrally located and within a 10 minute walk of Central Havana. The neighborhood was quiet and nice, and had plenty of things around it.

Casa Kety
My review: This Casa Particular was a pleasant detail during my visit to Cuba. Jaime and Kety were most welcoming to their home. I rented a room along with two more people without any problem. They stayed up until we arrived, woke us up if we needed an early start and were open to respond any concerns about the Cuban lifestyle. Their hospitality was unique.
The Casa is adequately located. Among some of the things close are the Almendares Park, the Lennon Park, the Malecón, the Fábrica de Arte Cubano (FAC), and a cinema. If you're a walker, you can enjoy a visit to the Revolution Plaza, walk over to the Presidents Avenue (also known as G Park), visit the University of La Habana, or just go for a long one and get to Old Havana. If you're not up for walking you can easily ask for an Almendron crossing the street or get to one of the frequently passing busses on 23 Ave. The same goes if you're heading back to the Casa. We never had problems arriving to the place.
How was your room?: Room was comfortable, being cleaned and organized everyday. We had the option to use air conditioner in our room, which we did some of the days. It has a small fridge where a water bottle is put everyday as part of the stay. There's a TV too, for those days that you prefer to stay in. Each room have their own bathroom, which is well kept.
How was the food they offer?: They prepare a simple yet delicious breakfast everyday as part of the stay. The frappe with fresh fruit (usually guava or mango) is the best part of it.
Other services they offer: They helped us with most of our concerns and doubts about places and deals. If it wasn't for their advice we would've wasted a lot of money by the end of the stay. They too were open to tell us about the everyday reality that Cuba lives, which made us appreciate the stay even more.
Other comments: They are open minded people, with great personality and a unique charisma.

Casa de Ketty
My review: If you are looking for a well located Casa Particular in Havana with all sincerity I suggest Casa de Ketty. I just came back last week and it was a wonderful experience. If you want to live the Cuban lifestyle this is the place to go. Jaime and Ketty made me and my friends feel at home. The house is comfortable and well equipped. The breakfasts are too good to be true, specially the fresh juices Guayaba and Mango my favorite. You receive a lot of extras in advice and good conversations, and the good treatment is genuine. They give the extra step to make you feel at home and are very open-minded. Sincerely, this is a great place to stay and experience the Cuba lifestyle. The house is well located in the Vedado neighborhood from where you can walk, take almendrones (taxis), or buses to places like Plaza de la Revolución, Malecón, Universidad de la Habana, Habana Vieja, Mercado San José, Miramar, Parque G, and other must-see locations.
I encourage anyone who wants to live Cuba in a genuine way to stay at Casa de Ketty.
