i visited cuba last summer, stayed there a month. It's a wonderful place, as para said, the people are incredibly friendly and helpfull. I stayed in a habitacion near the capitolio which was 4 times cheaper and 10 times more fun than the hotels I've been in Cuba. There's tons of nice paladares with good food ( the menu's are quite alike though)
I saw one lady get robbed on the malecon, she was cuban, I think you're safer being a tourist, i walked around all night with a big camera in my hand, no problem at all.
the only thing that really annoyed me was the overdose of people playing crappy buena vista social club covers instead of some original material :)
obviously i'm jealous, have a great time
if you want to go online in havana, go to the lobby of the hotel inglaterra (next to the gran teatro, which is next to the capitolio)
