Where are the local Hotels that are close to the local Bars and night life in Puerto Plata city. Looking for a room with AC, Safe in room, and a guard watching the place. Looking to be able to walk to everything.

Try the Mountainview just up the hill from Caribe Tours. It used to be a hopping chica bar, but has now been renovated and is more suited to everyone. Safe in room, ac, security and central in town. I think its around 60US a night now.

If so what are the other options for people who are trying to stay awake for their entire trip (literally)...
again I have read around but the answers appear to be all over the place..From pushed back to 1am (which doesn't help)..too not being true at all...Does anyone no the real deal??Thanks
In Sosua, it would go like this.
As you appear to be a night owl, let's start your schedule in the evening.

7 PM: Go out for dinner, have a few drinks, meet a young lady, and back in your hotel by 9:30 PM.

9:30 PM: Show your lady a bit of horizontal lovin', and finish up by 10:30 pm.

10:30 pm: Grab a shower and get out to the discos by 11 PM, do a little dancing, lot of drinking, then drag your drunken butt out at closing time and go to the Playa Chiquita Casino for more of the same 'till 4 AM, grab your future ex-wife, pop a Viagra, and head on back to the hotel.

4:30 AM: Get to hotel, take it slow, take advantage of that little blue pill and see if you can last 2 hours.

6:30 AM: Quick shower, peck on the cheek and say your goodbyes, and "Yes, I'll call you tomorrow", dive into bed for a 1 hour power nap.

8 AM: Get back up, throw some water in your face, go out for breakie.

8:30 AM: Order breakie, send an email home to your buddies to make them jealous, eat breakie, take a stroll around town, drop into the beach, have a swim, lounge around in a beach chair for awhile, doze off for a few minutes, get up and head back to your hotel for another quick shower.

12 PM: Stroll around town and find a place for lunch, socialize a bit then meet female goddess, take her back to hotel room for quickie, finish up by 3 PM, another quick shower, goodbye kisses, "will call you later and all finished up by 3:30 PM.

Dive into bed for a siesta, get back up by 6:30 PM, toss a bit of water in your face, go out and find a place for dinner by 7 PM.
7 PM: Repeat actions mentioned above.

Stay away from them - or find yourself in a whole lot of trouble or even jail.
