    “Came up for a Bridal Shoot for my daughter and I to stay here and get ready. Ordered Mimosa's for two that was supposed to be beautifully set up for $55; instead the ingredients stuck in the fridge (ok fine) with no chiller left in the room and I was charged $193 after I checked out ofcourse. I tried calling, emailing and customer support and nothing. This is unacceptable.”

    “This historic hotel off the SA Riverwalk is a gem! Location is quiet and yet located within easy walking distance to sites. We loved the hardwood floors and decor throughout as well as the easy parking (with charger) and grounds. Staff excellent and responsive as well. Will visit again when in SA.”

    “Property was located in a quiet stretch of the Riverwalk. It was an easy walk to the center of everything, but you didn't have the craziness and chaos that exists in the central riverwalk area. At night we sat on the hotel porch, drank wine, and relaxed in relative silence. It was lovely. My only issue with the room was that it had no chair to sit and relax, you only had the bed.”

    “I love historic hotel it was old yet super clean it was like a time machine to another era . Staff was friendly everything was antique yet clean . Rooms had high ceilings , windows with wooden shutters, electricity was obviously added later . The ac was cold full size refrigerator and one one the most comfortable beds and pillows I’ve experienced in awhile at a great price .”

    “Restaurant closed for private party so no dinner or breakfast or river-side beverages. Major bummer. Room was dirty and the whole room kept shaking every 20 minutes - not sure why, maybe a train kept passing by? Told me they were charging me $100 for incidentals, then they tried to put $200 on my credit card, I spoke up, then they put $110 on my credit card. Been a long time guest at the Hotel Havana --- sad to see it's not doing very well. Hesitant to return or recommend it to anyone. ”
