This hostel is great! Its the best deal in the city by far. Bettye was extreamly helpfull advising me where to go, ordering taxis... The hostel is very clean new, towels and sheets were neat. The hostel is well decorated, filled by paintings. Great place to meet other backpackers

The location of the hostel is great, it\'s right next to El Conde (the main walking strip in the colonial zone) and fairly central place to spring to other locations within the city. The bathroom leaves a lot to be desired (you can\'t flush toilet paper, and it\'s smaller than a pantry). The only large problem I had was upon checking in we (me and 2 friends) made it clear we were trying to save money by renting out a double and Betty said she understood...until we checked out and it escalated qu...

some people have said some bad things about this place...but I think most of them are just moaning for the sake of it. Bettys place is great, the price is good, the breakfast is good, the showers are fine, and there are fans in every room and airconditioning in some too! Betty is friendly and is a gold mine of information on the dominincan republic...recommended to backpackers!

This hostel was overall a very good place to stay. It was a bit in the ghetto- but so is all of Santo Domingo. I was walking distance to many things and the grocery store. We never had the chance to meet Bettey, however Dan was very helpful and kind.

Technically, Bettye's was full (even though this is what we booked) so she sent us to an unlisted auxiliary just around the corner. Everything here works with knowing the right people and if you look like you are not a local they try to trick you and sell you everything. This also applied to the hostel manager. So, we had to keep saying 'no' to all of it and this was annoying. Other than that, it was a good place to stay in Zona Colonial.

Bettye was amazing! Great location, right next to El Conde, bars, and nightlife in Santo Domingo.
This is a total must stay if traveling to the DR!

The location was great, it was right in the middle of everything. Bettye was also very nice and helpful. I would definitely stay there again.
