Frommer's
"Although a block removed from the Prado, this is a much better bet than its nearby sister, the Hotel Caribbean." Full review
Lonely Planet
"The lackluster Lido is Havana's unofficial backpacker nexus. It has been popular for years for its central location and no-frills rooms with intermittent hot water and a gritty neighborhood feel."
Rough Guide
"Located on a run-down street in a lively local neighbourhood, the rooms here are dark and have rickety furniture, but are inexpensive for a hotel so close to Habana Vieja."
