This is a great hotel for a great price. It will be my "go to" for personal travel in the Colonial Zone from now on. Great friendly staff, stylish and spotless public spaces and a fantastic breakfast. There is not parking included, but there are couple pay lots a block away the staff will direct you to. We were able to find on-street parking nearby for free, though.
This an older building with cool architecture but the reception area is on the second floor, so this might not be a good for someone who can't do a flight of stairs, but the staff is very willing to help with bags. It could be easy to miss, too, since it's just a door with a small sign on the street level, but our maps program took us right to the front door.
Many of the rooms look over the Conde, Santo Domingo's pedestrian plaza and the balcony room gives you a birds-eye view of all the action. It's also half a block from Grande's Cafe, more commonly known as Paco's, a very authentic Dominican restaurant that's open 24/7.
This place is a gem. We'll definitely be back.
