The room was spacious, clean and the entire hotel was as described in the pictures. We were upgraded to a room with a private terrace & infinity pool, with amazing views of the Santo Domingo church. The rooftop shared jacuzzi and sun deck were amazing as well. The front desk staff were amazing & helped us with directions, activities and booking ground transportation. The location was central and we felt safe walking everywhere. We would definitely stay here again.

Our room had a wonderful private terrace and pool, but the shower didn’t work when we checked in, the toilet water smelled terrible, our towels were stained, and the pool was not cleaned before we arrived as there were floating bugs in it. Also, the air conditioner dripped water all the time no matter what temperature we kept it at. Once they fixed the shower and the smell in the bathroom, and cleaned the pool it was much better, but the AC never stopped dripping. Also, bring your own shower products and any other items you may need because our shower only had shampoo and hand soap and there were no amenity kits of any kind. The staff was very nice and helpful and the breakfast in the cafe was very good.

A truly rustic hotel still in Centro but a few blocks away from the noisier sections. Friendly, accommodating service from the staff. Bed was comfortable. The on-site restaurant is small but had great food and great service. The property is well-maintained but quite old, so expect non-contemporary accommodations like a tiny bathroom, can hear your neighbors, etc.

My wife and I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. It perfectly captured the local culture, making our experience feel more connected to the city. The staff was incredibly friendly and accommodating, even letting us check in early, which we really appreciated. We also had breakfast at the hotel, and it was delicious – a great start to our day. Overall, it was a pleasant and relaxing stay. Highly recommend!
