“Hotel Barroco strikes me as a budget-conscious choice near the Gran Terminal del Caribe, prioritizing practical needs. The 24-hour desk is a definite plus for late arrivals. While some might find the immediate neighborhood a bit unsettling at night, the hotel itself seems secure enough, offering basic comforts for a quick stay.”
