Dominican Fiesta Hotel
All the rooms I saw in the hotel were in bad conditions, specially the bathrooms. My original room had the bathroom in such bad condition that they showed me 6 other rooms and they were in the same condition. Even in the executive foor. The bathroom looked like a public bathroom.
