Dominican Fiesta Hotel
Very nice hotel. Rugs are a bit outdated. Food buffet was very nice, all the staff were very friendly. Great outdoor sport facility like soccer, pickleball, tennis, large pool, jacuzzi and large gym. Close to main center and taxis were cheap. I had no complaints. Very inexpensive.
