Pros:

La ubicacion del hotel cerca de la playa y la amabilidad y atencion de su personal

Cons:

El poco espacio que tiene para el estacionamiento/parqueo de vehiculo, considero que deberian de tener convenios con estacionamientos/parqueaderos cerca del hotel, con esto, el cliente se puede sentir seguro de que su vehiculo no se encontraria en riesgo por no estar bien estacionado en la calle frente del hotel

Es una trampa para turistas
Pros:

Absolutamente nada

Cons:

Es una trampa para turistas, luego de la tarifa que está publicada en Booking ellos te quieren cobrar el equivalente a US$ 100 los cuales no devuelven sino que te los quieren retener en crédito y si te niegas a pagar se quedan con el 100% del monto equivalente a la reserva de un día.

Excellent séjour !!
Pros:

Nous avons passé un excellent séjour !! Nous sommes déjà venu plusieurs fois, et l'accueil est super !! merci aux responsables de l'hôtel ainsi qu'à Alberto et son frère, à Angel, et tout le personnel pour leur gentillesse et leur professionnalisme !! le petit déjeuner très bien ainsi que les différents repas que nous avons pris à l'hôtel. Propreté impeccable, plage à proximité. Nous avons fait de belles rencontres et nous espérons vraiment revenir l'année prochaine !!
Attendez vous à vivre à "la Dominicaine", tout est simple, chaleureux et agréable !! Nous ne sommes pas dans un hôtel comme à Punta Cana, mais personnellement c'est ce que nous apprécions !! Encore merciiiiiii !!

Safe place , good constant cleaning , front beach , good price
Pros:

The property is in a excellent location front beach ic clean . The Hotel provides lounging chairs and tables for their guest . They have drinks and food service brought to you in the beach area , it’s very safe because they have their own security people that cater to the guests and very attentive. You also have the pool if you wish not to go to the beach. It’s a small hotel the hotel has 100% constant cleaning by the maids . The breakfast is included . The breakfast is limited to any style eggs , toast, fruit, coffee juice only. You can order eggs and ham . The rooms were ok , in my room the tv had a screen problem you could only see have of the TV . It was brought to their attention there is a $100 us deposit for any room damage that they charge you CC but when it’s time check out and everything is ok please make sure you get the reversal of credit on your card on the deposit and the receipt to avoid any problems . Other then that everyone in the hotel and other guests very nice the staff professional, helpful on many ways. The hotel is inexpensive so for the money it was fine , safe, clean oh!! The hotel is a restaurant so they offer food for pay reasonable prices and the food was delicious. I had fried chicken with plantains and shrimp with spaghetti food was tasty and delicious 👍

Cons:

Don’t really have any complaints because to be a small hotel It was very accommodating for the price , safe and the staff the food was good . Only hiccup was the tv in my room had lines couldn’t see the screen they need to change it. Other then that I recommend you go if you are on a budget and want to go to the famous Boca Chica beach in Santo Domingo one of the finest beaches in the Dominican Republic where you can walk one mile or more in in the beach and the water level is at your waist and the waters are crystal clear blue with white sand and always calm like a pool with no waves👍 it’s a pool beach for sure . You will love and your family too 🇩🇴❤️🇩🇴❤️🇩🇴❤️🇩🇴
