Hotel La Morada

Stayed at Hotel La Morada for a few days and was pleasantly surprised. The rooms are a decent size and the amenities are efficient for the price. To get the best deal I would recommend you call the hotel directly and make a reservation. I booked through a booking website and the price was $47/day for a standard room, no breakfast. If you call, it’s $40/day or $45 w/ breakfast. The room: The standard room is just that, a bed, a TV, small armoire, a decent size fridge (the temperature knob on mine was broken). The bathroom was somewhat small but that was only in my room (302) as my business partner had a bigger bathroom (201). Lighting is kinda dim so you have to turn on all the lights, the lamps and open the curtains to get some sunlight in the room. The bed was decent but the pillows were quite hard. Had good water pressure and the hot water was plentiful once you let it run for a few minutes. Overall it was a comfortable room. The restaurant: The restaurant is on the 4th floor walk-up rooftop deck and there’s a jacuzzi at the other end of the rooftop. Didn’t have a chance to eat there but looking at the menu its standard fare. Definitely a nice place to sit and have a drink or just catch some sun on a hot, balmy day. Overall the hotel is very quaint and comfortable. The guys at reception were quite helpful and accommodating. There is parking in front of the hotel but it consists of 5 spots or so. There is some light traffic that passes in front of the hotel but more so during the day. In the evenings the area is relatively quiet. It is relatively close to the Malecon and a short cab ride to el Conde and other tourist spots.
