You should NOT leave valuable possessions in any hotel room.
In some hotels they are less likely to disappear than others... but the risk is too high to give it a try. Better hotels will have an in-room hotel safe (most AI-resorts do) to protect your valuable from the personnel's temptations only. Most of these in-room safes will not be big enough to hold a regular sized or larger lap top computer, but will hold your papers, wallet, cell phone and camera nor strong enough to protect your property in case of a break in.

Hotels: Most AI resorts are on the main road entering/exiting Puerto Plata on both, it's West and East end. The ones on the East end are almost at walking distance to the town. There are small buses which will take you into town or to the neighboring towns and villages and long distance bus services which will take you to Santiago and Santo Domingo.
There are few non-AI-hotel IN town with an internet presence.

But maybe this list can help you further:
