The location is the BEST! it is walkable to the main places in la Zona Colonial. It is affordable, easy to check in and check out. I recommended for thoes who just want to leave your bags and walk and be out all day. It a simple hotel, to check in and check out. Its not the best for resting and having a comfortable silent evening.

The location is the main attraction, for sure! You'll be within walking distance to some of the city's most iconic places. Depending on the room you get and its location in the building, your mornings could be very noisy or tolerable due to traffic outside.

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.
