Remodelling of the property is needed. Bigger bathrooms with AC. I didn't have a window & my circadian rhythym was getting messed up. Would be best if the whole place moved to another location because it's in a terrible spot. No dining options. They would not let me check in 2 hrs ahead of time even though the room was ready. Terrible. Phils is not now I had to go around to pass time & come back to check in... 😐😏 The staff was nice but the room was not.

An amazing city hotel
My stay was amazing !! The hotel is in a really good location meaning that getting a grab to tourist attractions is really cheap. The staff on the reception desk were so helpful and also allowed me to get an early check in to my room after getting a night flight to Manila. The room was very comfortable. The wifi unfortunately doesn’t reach the rooms but that wasn’t really an issue for me. The only other thing I would mention is that the address of the hotel given is actually across the road from the hotel so don’t be alarmed if you get a taxi to the address and can’t see the hotel - it’s a little further up the road on the other side but very easy to see.

Please do not believe about their parking. It says on their booking “parking included” but my niece and nephew were told that they have to park on the street and need to pay 100 pesos for tanod fee.

You get what you pay for
I didn’t expect much from the hotel, since I only needed a place to stay in the area. The staff was very helpful and pleasant. I noticed that the lobby didn’t have any airconditioning. When I got to my room, the furnishing was very basic, with crooked cabinet doors and creaking headboard. There was a toothbrush packaging left at the base of the sink maybe from a previous occupant. Air-conditioning was a window-type model, which was working well, but couldn’t handle the heat coming in from the windows spaces (not insulated). The ad said there would be a Queen-sized bed, but I was surprised to see 2 single beds joined together. I hurt my knee on the wooden bed frame in between the beds. The wifi was almost non-existent. I actually chose this hotel over another one because they claimed there was free in-room wifi.
