10/10 Exceptional

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.

The property charged me a surprise fee to have a guest in my room. This fee is per guest. This was not disclosed when I made the reservation, otherwise, I would not have made the reservation.

The pool water was cloudy They were unable to provide a key for the room safe No refrigerator in the room
Richard, 4-night trip

2/10 Poor

Sleeping on the street is nicer.
This hotel is in such a good location. But the owners are simply trying to save money by not doing basic maintenance on any part of it. They didn’t take credit cards, the room was 1/5th of the advertised size, the toilet did not flush, the hot water did not work, the bathroom can be seen from the lobby… and on and on and on. Do yourself a favor. Stay next door at the Belini. It’s expensive but it’s professional. This place is like staying at your dirty neighbor’s house.
Jak, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

None of the common areas, including dining and boutique areas were air conditioned, bath not air conditioned. tried to get wash cloths, hand towels and they never appeared. I got a towel run for a hand towel. Never could get anything more than slightly warm water for bathing and showering. The large tub was actually located in an outside environment which you had to go through to get to the bathroom. The large tub was coated with foreign material and had to be washed before use -- which we never did because of not hot water.

Atención al cliente valiosa.
Quiero resaltar la buena atención al cliente que tienen en este hotel, antes de mi llegada fueron muy amables en darme detalles de mi estancia. Y quiero sugerirles que no reserven la habitación más sencilla porque es bastante incómoda y pequeña, fuera de eso, todo súper.

Grei standard på rommene, men litt slitt og manglende renhold. Koselig bassengområde og god frokost.
