Mourning made easier with simple kind words of com

We went for funeral service after the devastating incident at the jet set night club in Santo Domingo, and the kind welcome words at check in by Wilmer Medine were very much appreciated.The service at the restaurant during breakfast is exceptional as well as at the bar. The staff serving the room were the kindest ever and at checkout Rafael Sosa made out departure easier and comfortable. Thank you Embajador Family
