I booked Hotel Discovery because I was looking for an inexpensive stay. I knew going in that this was not going to be a 5-Star Hotel. It is a small, locally owned and operated hotel. My room was clean and the air conditioning worked. The hotel staff was very friendly and attentive. There is a little corner store downstairs with very friendly people. The hotel is only a one minute walk from Calle El Conde, which is the main pedestrian road through the zona colonial and along the Conde there are many different food options. There's several American chain restaurants. There are many restaurants that have international menus with American, Italian, Mexican, Dominican, etc. sections. A less than 15 minute walk gets you to Barrio Chino (China Town). I found the area to be pretty safe. I never once felt uncomfortable in my surroundings and I went into the local neighborhoods where most tourists are afraid to go and hung out with the locals. There is a park behind the old monastery that does a block party every Sunday at 6 pm. If you want REAL Dominican food, it's neighborhood restaurants like this that you want to check out. I have found Dominicans to be some of the most friendly and hospitable people I have ever met. This was not my first trip to Santo Domingo, but it was my first stay at Hotel Discovery. I will be back. You are in Latin America. Keep in mind that loud traffic ans bugs are common.

I liked very much this property, hey for the price I couldn’t have asked for more! So I can’t complain, even though my room was smaller than expected I was very confortable and pleased. The quality of the service 10/10, the receptionist; I remember was guy ! I can’t remember his name, he was great and made feel happy with the option I took.

When I arrived at the hotel, the staff told me that they had no rooms available. I made my reservation 2 days before arriving at the hotel through this app. At least they had the decency to send me to another hotel to spend the night, but the hotel they sent me to was of a lower category than the one I booked.
