Robin

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities
If we were to visit Bayahibe again, we wouldn’t stay here nor recommend it. The floors of our room were dirty upon arrival, there were ants and spiders web in the bathroom etc. The bed was rock hard. The available staff only knew Spanish so there was zero ways to communicate for us non-Spanish speakers. The location is good - short walk to the beach and stores just around the corner.

Nice, quiet hotel

The waterfront area of Bayahibe can be quite noisy but this is in a quieter area a couple of blocks away. Good, no-frills hotel. Recommended.

A very sketchy hotel

A bare bones basic hotel. They have free coffee in the morning, but nothing else. Rooms are small but enough, and very basic. The 2 guys working the “front desk” were pretty sketchy characters, and didn’t seem to know what they were doing. Our second night (of 2) there, they were hanging out drinking with some local gal in the parking lot below our balcony. One of them took her to one of the vacant rooms for a half hour or so, and then they both came out and all 3 got into a big noisy argument about her “not being paid enough”! Not a place we’ll stay at again.
