Looks nice, but...
The hotel looks nice and new, I have asked to see the rooms and they seemed REALLY plain, like they had all un-finished furniture (like plywood?). The restaurant looks cool, probably the most interesting looking in town, BUT the one time that I ate there I was EXTREMELY disappointed with the food. I got the spaghetti, and it was literally like spaghetti noodles with ketchup sauce. No seasoning, no cheese, no bread...and it was $200. Give me Dominican espagetis any day over that. The person I was with got a club sandwich, and they are def. better elsewhere. I felt the food was over-priced and the cooks extremely poorly trained. OH and also a 10 oz. Coke was 50. It's not Cabarete, so price accordingly. I hope things have improved, but will never go there again as even in Barahona there are better options than that. I mentioned all this to the people working and they didn't seem to care. :ermm:
I pass by there often, and the place is empty 99% of the time. Suggestions to owners: improve food quality, offer more affordable and common Dominican food as people in Barahona cannot afford to buy $500 tapas and you can't just count on tourists for clients. Have specials and try to promote the place.
