Casa azul
My review: This Casa is really nice. It's located close to the center, Malecon and to some other interesting places, including Calle Garzon, where the Carnival show was organised. However the street is not noisy. Room is clean and bright, bathroom is also very comfortable. Norka and her daughter are very friendly and helpful. In their house in the neighbour room there are many books from other tourists on all possible languages. Food was very nice, especially fish. On the website her phone number is not correct, so I mention it in my review, in order to help other tourists to exclude problems which we've had:)
Correct home number is +53 22 620319
Movil: +53 52821057
Casa specifics: Quiet, Fantastic hosts, Comfortable, Beautiful, Safe, Garden

Casa Azul
My review: After reading a great review about Casa Azul, i made a booking and was so happy with my experience that I wanted to also write a review to encourage others to stay here when visiting Santiago de Cuba.
Norka and her daughter Isa were wonderful hosts; so friendly and hospitable. The meals were fantastic and I felt extremely welcome while there. The casa is very modern, clean and comfortable. The room is big with air conditioning and a fan, your own bathroom and fridge. The courtyard area was my favourite part of the casa, where meals were served. A beautiful space with gorgeous plants and quirky decorations around the place to keep you smiling. The casa is only a quick walk to the main square, which is very handy.
I highly recommend this casa to anybody. I was traveling solo and was so happy that this was my first experience in a Casa, as I felt very safe and comfortable. Even though my Spanish was very basic we were able to communicate fine and Norka was very patient with me : )

Casa Azul
My review: If someone asked me, which was the best casa during your trip to Cuba, I would definitely say CASA AZUL.
The house was recently built in this Cuban contemporary architecture that makes you say wowwww! The owner and architect of the house is this amazing person called Norka. She was so interesting and everyday decorated the table with this beautiful cuban art dishes that fascinated us to a point of going to the ARTEX store to buy cuban art printed in cups and shower curtains. The bed was made everyday and the bathroom cleaned as well, this was nice since not all the casas do this. In addition, the bathroom and the mattress was up to european standards. In contrasts to other casas where normally you can hear the rooster and the music from the neighbors, the bedroom's high quality glass windows in addition to the metal shutters and A/C made possible to sound proof the room without suffocating. Moreover, the room and bathroom had 220 V and 110V sockets to recharge your devices that after a while of running around was really nice to find something like this in Cuba. The house was o! nly one block from the Parque Cespedes so the car was only necessary if we need it to go to La Piedra. Breakfast and dinner was superb! We felt in love with the frijoles, malanga and you name it!!! We are going back for sure!
