I go; the breakfast, to my surprise, is just like Woolcut's; the dinner idem, but rather harder to get; preserves for tea, and two towels daily, instead of one, seem to constitute the chief advantages of this establishment.
You certainly pay for it, in Havana; for the $3 or $3.50 per diem, which is your simplest hotel-charge there, should, in any civilized part of the world, give you a creditable apartment, clean linen, and all reasonable diet. What it does give, the travelling public may like to learn. Can Grande has left Woolcut's.
Finally, we arrive at his hotel, glad to be somewhere, but hot, tired, hungry, and not in raptures with our first experience of tropical life. It must be confessed that our long-tried energies fall somewhat flat on the quiet of Woolcut's.
Then comes a cup of truly infernal tea, the mastication of a stale roll, with butter, also stale, then, more sitting on the piazza, then, retirement, and a wild hunt after mosquitoes, and so ends the first day at Woolcut's, on the Cerro. "Shall I not take mine ease in mine inn?" Yes, truly, if you can get it, Jack Falstaff; but it is one thing to pay for comfort, and another thing to have it.
