It was ok for a one night stay. Just to sleep and take a shower.
Very close to the port.
Staff was very friendly and ready to help.
Not a place to stay for vacation.

The whole experience was not good first of all it was not a resort and my room was very tiny including the bathroom. Overall I will never stay at this hotel again. The pics that r posted on Expedia r not the same as u see in person

The service is exquisite. Staff is very attentive. The rooms are clean and the airconditioning works very well. The ambiance is wonderful and the location is very near the oldest cathedral of the West Indies. There is construction nearby as they are fixing up the historical district. Breakfast in the courtyard was great. We would have liked to stay longer but our schedule kept us from doing so.

A generally all round good find in the town centre with everything walkable to the Málecon it's cafes & restaurants & also a supermarket.
Equally to the centre of the San Felipe district for coffee,shops and the central square.
The hotel itself is billed as a 2* but is better than that.
It is clean & secure with a 24 hour reception & a small car park attached.
It has lovely rooftop terrace with a bar open from 6pm local time with amazing views over Puerto Plata & accesible from the 2nd floor by another staircase.
Well worth a stay for budget travellers & great value for money.
The Bus station(Metro Tranaportes) is around 600 metres away walking time of 10 minutes but uphill on the way there.
Puerto Plata itself is safe,very pretty old town.
For travel options out there are taxi & motoconchos(motorbike taxis who you can spot as they wear orange gillets.
The north of the country is clean,green & beautiful.
Finally tours of local rum factory (Brugal) are available
