Havana Cuba Review 3/5
This is a flashback post to my trip in Havana Cuba in 2017. I went for my 31st birthday with friends. Overall, I enjoyed it but it wasn't my favorite trip. See below
The scenery/overall vibe: 5/5- Amazing. Old fashioned cars, artsy buildings, unfinished streets. It was amazing. The country side Vinales was amazing also. Unfortunately I did not get a chance to go to Varadero.
The Food: 2/5- Lackluster. Cuban food in America was better then my experiences in cuba but it could have been where we ate.
The nightlife: 3/5- Decent. I recommend the artsy club Fabrica De Arte.
The hotels: 3/5- I stayed in an Air bnb that looked a lot nicer online then in person. The neighborhood was also sketchy. Research, research, research before you go! I cannot speak on the hotels really.
The people/locals: 4/5- Interesting folks whoa re very nice but if you do not speak Spanish, the language barrier is tough.
I am not sure how hard it is to go to Havana now vs 2017 but it was a great experience that is worth trying.
