DDzhentaoAmazing place.
It's a love hotel that could actually work as a stopover if you're ready to experience Manila as it truly is. I was pleasantly surprised by the cleanliness: no insects in the room, no dirt, and a clean jacuzzi, which isn't always the case even in more expensive hotels in Moscow. One of the hotel staff, a gecko, clearly protected us from insects!
However, the bathrooms definitely need fixing. The pipes on both floors are leaking, which has led to a persistent puddle of stagnant water that never dries up.
The mattress was firm, perhaps too much so for our liking. And the stairs are quite steep, which might not be comfortable for everyone.
The hotel staff were generally friendly; I'm sure they would have been willing to help if needed, but we didn't have any issues. However, no one took the initiative, so over our three-day stay, we weren't even offered fresh towels or trash removal, which was a bit disappointing.
The location is convenient because it's close to the airport (this was a big draw for us, as we only had two days in Manila). But on the other hand, stepping outside the hotel plunges you into the surrounding poverty: markets, homeless people. In the evenings, it felt a bit uncomfortable getting around without a taxi. I'd recommend taking a taxi every time you return after sunset.
And yes, being close to the airport means plane noise day and night, so be prepared for that.
All in all, my wife and I enjoyed our stay at the hotel, and we might even consider returning next time.
GGuest UserFirst time staying at a motel-style hotel, haha, it's truly a typical Filipino experience! You can just drive right up to your room. It was a novel experience, definitely worth trying.
AAnonymous UserAlthough rooms with garage parking are actually available upon arrival, the online booking system shows that no parking is available. Because of this, guests are required to pay an additional parking fee when they get to the property. When you compute the total cost, it ends up being almost the same as the regular rate, making the online discount essentially meaningless. This was very disappointing, especially since the listing states that free parking is included as an amenity.
MMedico deepBest Hotel services, all staff are very polite and helpful, very fast food delivery to your room upon ordering , security top notch for foreign travellers, overall very peaceful stay ,nothing u can expect better in this price range anywhere else . I brought ready to eat food from my country the chef cooked and give it to me with proper serving (that the best I can expect from staff)
GGuest UserThe services is so good and the room is so clean and spacious. Although the food might have been a bit pricy for it’s serving but it was a very pleasant stay
