One of the numerous Casa Particulares in Sancti Spiritus.

As Cuba gears toward more opened tourism, private accommodation has emerged under government supervision. For $15 to $30, these Casa Particulares provide opportunities for tourists a cheaper renting and an experience seeing Cuba people's life. The story is not simple however. Only rich people who have adequate housing might receive dollars from Miami could afford the halfty fixed licensing fee of between $100 to $200 per month, which buys them a blue triangle sign in front of their doors.
