In the old city

The hotel is good for a couple days stay in Santo Domingo. It is in the heart of the Colonial Zona. Many restaurants along the strip. The hotel is definitely at a budget price with breakfast.

Incomunicado stay

I stay there because the staff is nice, the food is good, the room is good enough. BUT no internet is a deal killer. Will Not go back again.

The hotel is in poor shape, quite expansive for what it is offering. I'm very surprise seeing that the Accord Group have this hotel holding its flag. The rooms are very small and dust is covering most of the furniture. At the bathroom the toilet was having water all over the floor and the shower was dirty and so small that I could touch the ceiling with my head (I'm 5 11"). Domestic flies were all over the restaurant. Very difficult the neighbourhood. I just stepped outside and was approached by a man offering women and drugs. In minutes later I saw this same man circulating by the hotel area.

Hôtel sale et bruyant

Hôtel bien placé, mais rien à voir avec un Mercure en France (hôtel **). Nuit très bruyante Couloir jonchée de plateaux durant 2 jours. Pas cher, bien situé, rien de plus.

Worst hotel ever. Dirty, bad service. Bad matrass.

Worst hotel ever. This is not a hotel but a hostel. Dirty, old, bad matrass, no pillows, only 1 towel. This is not worth a Mercure. This is a pure dirty hostel. It was a nightmere !!!!!!

Bof ...

hôtel très bien placé, chambre minuscule ! Salle de bain lamentable (il faut enjamber la cuvette des toilettes pour aller dans la douche). Pas de prises de courant. Bon buffet petit déjeuner et personnel très sympathique. Ne Mérite pas l’étiquette Mercure mais devrait être IBIS

idéal pour découvrir le quartier colonial

hôtel très bien placé mais équipement moyen. Pas de prise dans les petites salles de bain, une seule sous une table de nuit dans la très petit chambre. Personnel sympathique et très serviable. Petit déjeuner très correct. Mais reste cher pour les prestation qui se rapproche plus d'un IBIS, bar hors de prix (expresso 2,5 Euro)

Our belongings were stolen from our room.
