The place offers a decent value. Staff is very friendly and caring. Don't expect much though, the facility is a bit outdated, the WiFi is streaky, the rooms are a bit tight and not really welcoming. The area is a bit depressing with lots of trash in the streets, some lots forsaken. The nearby beach was a bit too crowded and loud for our liking. But you can't expect much more form this place given the price. Not a bad experience overall.
Hotel itself is well maintained and quite decent. If you're usually staying in hostels - you'll be fine. For a posh hotel or glamping stayers - you might not be satisfied. There is a fairly small local beach with restaurants located quite close from the hotel. Hotel itself is located in a quite poor area of the city with practically just one road leading to the city centre, so - quite a walk (mini buses or taxi might be an option for most). Owner was very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was very tasty, but will take good relaxing amount of time to serve and no choices given. We enjoyed it (more than a 5 star hotel at the end of our trip, where you're like in a beautiful cage and fed for slaughter) for 2 nights as an adventure and local area support. Will we return? Most likely not, as price is not adequate for what you get in our opinion. But glad we did it.
I mean you really get what you pay, so no complaints. So , why I gave them five stars is for the friendliest and nicest staff . The place is surprisingly clean, the wifi is working very well compared with other places in DR. Close to the beach, close to the “bus station” . The area is quiet. The food is cheap and reasonable. Shoutout to David a personnel staff that went the extra mile and offered to ride his scooter and buy us Coke Zero from downtown. He didn’t want to get any tip saying that it was his pleasure. That’s unique in DR. Also I want to high five the owner Enrique, a really nice guy. At the end of our stay he gave us a ride to Caribe Tours to continue our trip. Overall a pleasant experience and a five star review.
We stayed here one night and really struggle with the place. The area where its located feels unsafe. The room was terrible, the bathroom didn’t have a door, so no privacy at all. The shower didn’t have a holder, therefore you had to hold it with your hand while showering. Internet didn’t work in the room. The breakfast was ok for DR standards.
Was clean room with air-conditioning. Nice personal, speak English. Poor breakfast, but it was still enough. Not that far from the beach(5min walk) and from the reastaurant.
