Apart-hotel Ocean Breeze

[Evv]

Has anyone stayed at this hotel long term? Would you recommend it? Is it safe for a single women? Or any other suggestions?
Many thanks

I have stayed @ the Oceam Breeze twice in 2009 for 4-5 days each visit. The management is friendly. They speak English. The prices are fair.

Each guest is given a key to keep the entry door locked . This process works as long as every guest manually locks the entry door. If a guest does not lock the entry door, there could be a security issue.

Management is not always on premises. If you call them via telephone, they will show up generally within 20 minutes.

You might check out Apart-hotel Roma. It is located on El Conde @ Calle Duarte. This area of the Colonial Zone is staffed with tourist police.

The owner is Italian and does not speak English. It is centrally located. The rooms are large and clean. Many of the rooms have kitchens. There is a grocery store across the street.

There is a front desk which is manned 24 hrs. The hotel staff does speak English. The front door is locked at night. If you want in after business hours, the front desk staff will unlock the door for you.

I have also stayed at the Ocean Breeze several times and Mr. P is quite right about security, especially for a single female. I have only good things to say about the management, cleanliness and spaciousness of the rooms, and price, but there is no front desk, and the entrance is on the small street a block from Parque Independencia going toward the Malecon. For a single woman, that could be problematic.

Does the ocean breeze have a website? Also would anyone recommend the Aladino or Foreigners Club?

[El_Canuck]

Never mind about their website. I found it. But if anyone has first hand info on the Aladino or Foreigners club I would appreciate it.

to the OP Evv, do you HAVE to stay in la Zona Colonial? There are nice apart hotels in Gazcue that are very safe and reasonably priced!

[Evv]

Jalencastro, what is the apart hotel in Gazcue called? Thank you, Ev

[jalencastro]

Evv, just PMed you, but as an FYI the place I stayed in Gazcue is: Jaguar Apart Hotel.
Very nice and clean and literally walking distance to everything!
