Frommer's "This imposing, five-story hotel stretches on for a hundred yards or so in each direction from its blocky concrete lobby." Full review
Lonely Planet "The main (only) benefit for the terribly unfussy is the price (cheap) and the location (you could hit a big home run onto the beach from here)." Full review
OysterBudget
"For cash-strapped travelers intent on splitting their time between the beach and Havana, this dingy, 188-room budget all-inclusive hotel from the '70s might fit the bill." Full review

Lonely Planet "Slap-bang in the middle of the historic core, and one of the cheapest offerings in the Habaguanex stable, this hotel is an excellent old-world choice, with good service and plenty of atmosphere." Full review
DK Eyewitness "Located in the heart of Habana Vieja, Hostal Valencia has no frills but is in a great location just steps from Plaza San Francisco."
Rough Guide "Plain but pleasant rooms in a beautiful building that feels more like a large country house than a small city hotel."
Fodor's "The on-site restaurant is known (and named) for its paella. Open-designe rooms are a good idea, but the furnishings here are dated and drab." Full review
