You'll be close to everything when you stay at this centrally-located place. Small and simple, very cozy apartment that preserves the old Cuban-Spanish styles of the 40s, without luxuries or eccentricities; with everything you need for a comfortable stay and a good rest. Very clean and located in the center of access to anywhere you want to visit, such as beaches, shopping centers, hospitals, Airport, entertainment places, supermarkets, and more; a very special place that you will love to visit. The apartment is located in a very quiet place with a community of mainly elderly people and medical workers; surrounded by shops and supermarkets, with easy access to transportation, moving on foot or by bicycle. Specially prepared for people looking for a different and quiet place within a welcoming environment. Because it is a very small apartment that is not enough to comply with the regulations required to accommodate children and infants, CHILDREN UNDER 12 YEARS SHALL BE NOT ALLOWED The apartment has a separate entrance, bathroom and private kitchen. Regional Conditions, Building and Facilities: This is a building from 1948, located in the neighborhood of Little Havana therefore, its construction is characteristic of that Cuban city by the 40's. The environment is very humid; That's why I ask you to leave always the air conditioning "on" since it is the only way to dehumidifies. Don't be surprised to see roosters, hens and chicks roaming free throughout the neighborhood; including those very beneficial species for the ecosystem of the area such as opossums, iguanas, lizards, geckos and many more typical and protected species of Florida. You will be able to enjoy an exceptional climate but full of inconveniences unknown to foreigners, and even worse during the hurricane season that begins on June 1 and ends on November 30 of each year. I provide you with a top brand insecticide for you to use in case you see an insect that bothers you; as well as other useful things. To avoid insect bites, I recommend using the provided "OFF" insect repellent, or similar since there are many insects around us. As for the humidity and its characteristic smell inside the building, I can't do much about it; That's why I ask you, very clearly, never turn off the air conditioning. The building has 3 WiFi services, I will send you the data of the one that works best in the apartment you chose, but if it fails for any reason, in the apartment you will find a guide with QR codes of the other WiFi connections that you can also use . If you don't have an app to scan QR codes on your phone or tablet, let me know so I will send you the data. I hope my tips have helped you and don't be surprised when you arrive... Note: If you plan to go to the Everglades or any other natural and wild area in South Florida, don't forget to bring insect repellant with you; that's almost mandatory... *Due to the remodeling works that are being carried out in the building and the proximity to the airport, it is possible that noise at certain times of the day can bother you, especially due to the passage of planes that are heading to South America. In the facilities there is not always parking available, since it is not exclusive for any guest, the spaces are occupied as guests arrive; There is also paid municipal parking on the street, so I recommend you download the "PayByPhone" application on your cell phone; there's no need to wander around or waste a lot of time to find a parking space in the neighborhood. This app not only is convenient and helpful but also is the only way to park in Miami and Broward, if you'll be renting a car. There is a shared coin laundry on the premises. The patio-yard is the only place allowed to smoke and a common area for all occupants. Thank you for not smoking inside the apartment ;) I give my guests independence, but I am available if they need me. I live in the same building and they can count on my help or advice at any time by contacting me by phone or by text through the Airbnb application or similar. Pretty studio in the heart of Little Havana with everything you need for your staying in a quiet neighborhood despite being on route 968 and very close to the airport.

Visitors can walk through a large entertainment area or use the extensive bus service at various points on and around the main street; they can opt for the free "Trolley" or "Metromover" service, rent Revel electric motorcycles and scooters, or simply use the services of Uber or Lyft.
