This place was just perfect for me during my stay in Santo Domingo.
Certainly, not the level of quality you'd find at a more corporate hotel. The bathroom and the shower were not great. Nothing special about the room.
However, the staff were courteous and attentive to my needs. Hotel worker was in the lobby 24/7. Maid cleaned the room daily. No one bothered me and I could come and go as I pleased and I felt pretty comfortable and secure there (used a safe that was provided by hotel for my important personal items). Pretty laissez-fair if you catch my drift. They have food, but I didn't have any so I couldn't remark upon that. However, they did have some drinks and that was helpful.
From the beginning to the end of my stay, there were absolutely no problems whatsoever with the hotel. Only bummer was the riff-raff hanging near the hotel, but it's not really the hotels fault, they're just people trying to hustle the neighborhood. Definitely a bit annoying considering they don't get the hint when you tell them to get lost.
Restaurant up the street was really good and you are in close proximity to the Colonial Zone.
