Question cheap hotels

i plan on driving around the dr. Can someone let me know of any cheap hotel/motels for a nite or two. The trip will start from Punta Cana and then probably the south end to west.

Smile Hi ladybug

I dont know anything about the south but if you make it up toward the sosua, cabarete area, I can guide you toward some cheap but comfortable hotels in the $20 usd range. Just e-mail me if you head in that direction.

That's not very specific. How about listing a potential route; at the least list the cities you intend to pass through.

Can you give us a hint?

Please, give us the cities and we can help. Touristy type places have real hotels and good prices. Smaller towns just the Cabanas Touristicas. Btter accomodations, but slightly high prices (by the hour) Ha ha ha.

My trip will start in punta cana, the airport. Eventually make my way to Santo Domingo and hopefully more west. A cheap hotel will be 20 USD a night. Sorry for not giving this info before.

In Santo Domingo there is a very nice small family run hotel named Mansion Gautreau, It is right next to the intercontinetal hotel and will run you 20-25 dollars a night and it is very secure and clean, I will try to find the number if I can but it is right there on the main strip or Malecon.

Question me too -

Can I get in too? Needed: 8/6 to 8/9 at 200-400 drp 18 km NW of SD. As I am new to computers, is that right? The directions i have are from JFK x Winston Crurchill 18 KM on Hwy 1 the right for 5 Km. Is that an area i can find a room in. I don't need fancy. I'm quiet and well behaved. I hope to be ehausted every night and just need sleep. Thanks -k

Just resurrecting this old thread...

What's the best way to book some of the smaller hotels in Santo Domingo like the Palacio or Caribeno? Do you have to call each one or is there a company online that has rates?
