Santo Domingo Bed And Breakfast

If you stay here, make sure you visit Alexis' bar only one block or two away on call Santiago over the street from the small Gloria Cocina restaurant. He's a great guy, he talks a little English and he's looking for you. Actually lived in the building next to the hotel and I can tell you it's easy to find for Uber still close enough that you can go anywhere. This neighborhood is Gazcue when you walk the day, it is safe. During the night there are the usual sounds of motorcycles and music and you can sit safely in front of the hotel and no one will disturb you. There are not many policemen or soldiers on this street, but only one block is a military building, so the entire area is well protected.

We laid less per person to stay much closer to the conde on another trip. I think it was fine and it had a breakfast included. about a 10 min walk from things... Especially if it's just one person it may be better for saving. But for the price we paid for 3 to stay, we could have gone somewhere else.

Stayed here for one night upon arrival in Santo Domingo. Friendly staff at the front desk spoke a smattering of English. The beds and bathrooms were very clean. A large bottled water dispenser is available in the expansive kitchen and dining area. The wifi and power were patchy, as was the hot water. No air conditioning. No lockers are available to securely store baggage, and even if you request a private room, the room will adjoin another space with bunks and no door. Very quiet for a hostel. Not a ton of people to chat with. The stay (on a Saturday night in January) was $28 for me and my SO. We moved up the block to a hotel the second night with good air conditioning, better wifi, and a locking door on night 2, which cost us just $18.

Good for the price. They didn't have any hand soap nor paper towels in the bathroom. They only had 1 roll of toilet paper and then there was none.

Poor option for the night. No private bathroom, the bed didn't felt comfortable and no longer offering breakfast. Even though the owner is a nice guy this option is not that great for couples wanting privacy. Might be good for solo or students. I went to casa del sol afterwards and was a far better experience.
