Good location, friendly staff...

Professional and friendly service set in semi-residential area. The morning breakfast is Dominican traditional and tastes great! It was my second time and will continue to go there when's I’m back in Dominican Republic.

Shower was not working properly, no shampoo or gel in the bathroom. No windows.

Very nice comfortable room for the price felt like at home - I would recommend your stay here.

Good neighborhood, near markets,transportation, Malecon,Colonial zone, Conde peatonal. Breakfast very good, not too diferent every day but good, delicious. Staff honest, cafeteria ladies very nice, specially Iris. SPECIAL Thanks to Fabia manager her treatment was excelent. We dindn't like cleaning everyday and no asking you, we like they put sign on the door asking if you want clean room or not.

Hotel was fine. A bit far to colonial area food was good and was in a quiet area

The Hotel is just right for the price.You are not going to get the luxury,but the staff is very friendly and try to help you in many ways.Breakfast is very good.

This is a quiet hotel with friendly staff, there are a lots restaurant and museums

Do not come to this hotel thinking or expecting high end. You didn't pay high end money. It's cheap. With that being said, the room was clean, sheets were clean, and the bathroom was old but clean. The ac worked great, and the water got warm. Considering that I was drenched in sweat everytime I returned from exploring, I didn't need hot water. The WiFi works GREAT! It is in walking distance to everything. The Presidential Palace is less than 10 min walking. I walked a lot! They have UBER in SD! It is much cheaper than bargaining with taxis- approx. $2-3 to the Colonial Zone or most places. I was told to be careful walking alone at night, but I walked to the yogurt shop around the corner or places nearby at night with no problem. Mostly friendly ppl. I took an uber when going out at night. The staff was very helpful and polite. They don't speak much English, so know basic phrases. I speak enough Spanish, so I was fine. Bring ear plugs if you are a light sleeper. Days begin early and nights are long. I would return. Great value for the money.

Ok, for the money. But only 4-6 parking spaces. First come, first served. Not much choices on the menu.

The rooms in the hotel have been upgraded, and are very nice. When I checked in I asked for room with a window, and when I went up to my room it had no window, and the room had not been cleaned from previous guests. I complained and was then given a room with a small balcony, so that was nice even if it didn't have a window. When I went to take a shower I discovered that the shower did not work, and water only came from the tap lower down. I complained to the front desk and they sent a maintenance man to repair the problem. Once the aforementioned problems had been addressed, my room was very comfortable, air conditioning worked very well, the cable channels were very good, and I had a relaxing stay in the room. As for the front desk staff, I would say that indifferent would be a compliment. They were not very friendly, in fact more like robots. The maids though were very friendly and helpful, so I left a tip for them. We had two power outages during my stay, at night, but the hotel generator started immediately, and even handled the air conditioning. The wifi was fast, and reliable.

Great service

the price-quality relation is fully ok, the room was clean and the wlan fast and the TV channnels good. the staff could be a little move welcoming, but if you start talking to them they were friendly and open. the room had no outside window, just one to the floor, but this was ok. Good that there was a safe, which I found essenial. the hotel is located about 5 min walking from the beginning of the old town. I will return.

You are paying about $30 USD/night...expect a $30 USD/night experience. Good location, and the staff is helpful. The room has A/C and hot water. That's the pros. The cons is the neighborhood. I literally could not sleep at night because of the surrounding noise. There are walls, but there is no noise insulation. It sounds like you are standing outside. My wife wears ear plugs, but she still heard the noise outside. And I did not try the breakfast.

the lobby of the hotel is very nice but the room was unfinished and very dingy. The staff was not very informative. Not really the best neighborhood I called and asked about the airport transportation to confirmed and I was told that it $30 when because I was only staying 2 days, previously I was not inform that. Did not fell safe at all

I had a great 16 day stay at Hotel Riparbella. Friendly owners and staff. Room was cleaned daily as was all hallways in all three floors. Breakfast is included in your stay and one is able to buy home cooked meal from them. Store right on the corner for whatever you might need and taxi's there at all time to take you wherever you might need to go.Will stay there again on my next trip. Really enjoyed my stay there.

the location is very good. the staff is so helpfull and the room services are awesome.

Little to no service.

For me travelling is not going at an hotel, it is going to a country. A comfortable room with an extra clean private bathroom and air conditioning is all I want and satisfied with. Had all this at Riparbella, plus an excellent room service. People at front desk are simply welcoming (no red carpet but dont want to pay for that). Hotel is simple but clean and comfortable, well located near very affordable restaurants (some with nice local food from 4 to 6$ wow! ). Located at 10 min. walk to the old town and taxis available easily (and safe). I definitely recommend if you only look for a nice, good and safe place to stay, not luxury but got everything you need to feel good. Write for more infos if needed (french/english/spanish).
