Default Bed Mattress - Where to Buy?

Hello Forum,

I need to purchase a mattress for a bed, a double or twin size will do.

Can anyone recommend a place to buy a mattress for a reasonable price?

I don't mind traveling to Santiago or Santo Domingo.

Also, is it possible to purchase an Air Mattress in the DR?

Any assistance provided is appreciated.

Thanks.

Vibe

There are many places in Puerto Plata. We bought a king, and two queens at a store in Sosua Abajo and of course there is price mart among other places in Santiago.

For mattresses I found Pricesmart to be out of line in terms of price. You can do much better!

decent cheap bathroom cupboards are another matter - either plastic or astronomical prices
