Alexis and his mother Aleida live in this large, ground floor casa particular in Old Havana, just off the pulsating Calle Obispo. You couldn’t ask to be more central and are literally 10 steps away from the mingling crowds of window licking Havaneros. Aleida, a retired primary school teacher, runs the house and her son Alexis may be around to help you out with his grasp of English.
