[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have heard the people are very welcoming to Americans, and that the accommodations are below what Americans would expect/ want. True? (Just FYI, I'm American, dying to go to Cuba, and not particularly fussy.)[/quote] Americans are very welcome and appreciated. We stayed in private hotels, usually converted homes - in both Havanna and Trinidad. Clean, lovely and both with air conditioning (although not fantastic AC but certainly enough). Nothing close to four star but truly comfortable. And we ate in paladars which are private restaurants (you need reservations). Food is rationed for the locals and the locals use a different form of currency than the tourists but the food is plentiful for tourists (so unfair, I know). Go, PP, and go as soon as you can. Cuba is changing and I wanted to get there before McDonald's did. [/quote]
