The hotel was in walking distance to most of the sights of Santo Domingo. But even the accomodation itself is a treasure. The property is very charming and we felt welcome immediatly. On top of all that, the Service was extraordinary. There was nothing the staff could not organize. I would defintly book here again when I am back.

Liked: Staff & service
It’s in Zona near Ballittini Hotel and The Large Church. It has a nice quiet traditional vibe. My room 14, was small but it was cleaned everyday. AC , ceiling fan and TV all worked. No condiments given except one roll of toilet paper and one towel which is not changed daily. Breakfast was Traditional American or Traditional Dominican. The Fresh Juice was good. The staff is very nice. They are there to help but not overbearing. Doors are locked at night and must be let in by staff. PLEASE BE PATIENT and Knock Softly. I would recommend for short stays

My goodness: None of what was advertised

The top four reasons I filtered were a fail . Said room was sound proof- my room was in the lobby literally. Said there was parking- none! Pool- very small and murky color. Breakfast- didn’t have items that were listed from the three dishes. Hot water had to be demanded
