I booked a 4-day stay as it was conveniently located near the place where I needed to do my errands. The accommodation was reasonable for the budget I spent. The male cleaner was very approachable and offered help without hesitation, which I really appreciated. However, the air conditioner wasn’t strong enough to cool the room, and I found myself sweating at night. Also, there was no iron available in the unit, and they couldn’t provide one even after I explained that I badly needed it after a 12-hour travel. Unfortunately, I ended up going to my interview with wrinkled clothes. Overall, the place is decent for the price, but it would be much better if they could improve the air conditioning and provide basic amenities like an iron.

“In the heart of city life”

The room in a decent size. The bed is comfortable. The height of the building provides a good view of the city. The internet is decent but not great. The cable TV provides plenty channels. There is a microwave in the room which is nice. Security is great. There is a gym and pool. The hotel … more

The room in a decent size. The bed is comfortable. The height of the building provides a good view of the city. The internet is decent but not great. The cable TV provides plenty channels. There is a microwave in the room which is nice. Security is great. There is a gym and pool. The hotel is in a great location and within walking distance of many things. Now the bad. The gym has old equipment. Yes there were roaches in the bathroom area. Your room will not get cleaned if you don’t hangout the clean room sign. The only issue is that a sign was not provided therefore the room didn’t always get cleaned. Remember this part of the city is a bit gritty and has some sketchy elements.

“December 2022 - good stay - property is a bit worn”

We had a 3 bedroom suite in Dec 2022 for 2 nights. Overall the stay was good, but the property is a bit tired Location is excellent, with Robinsons almost literally across the road.

We had a 3 bedroom suite in Dec 2022 for 2 nights. Overall the stay was good, but the property is a bit tired Location is excellent, with Robinsons almost literally across the road. We were lucky to be on the 47th floor, with outstanding view from Makati around to Manila Bay. It was worth the wait for sunset before we ventured out. Checkin was a little slow, but the staff are friendly and helpful. Each guest is given a passcard to enter/exit the elevator area (its kind of like entering a subway turnstyle :) ), and there was a seperate card for the room entry (although I think both cards activated the room). Unfortunately we lost one of the cards, lucky it was only a P300 charge - and we found it when we got home! On the elevators, there are 4 of them, they arent particularly quick but OK, but we found the doors close very quickly and try to close on you! Just a minor annoyance, nothing more I noted no issues with external noise intrussion in our brief stay Our suite had 3 bedrooms of reasonable size,1 had an ensuite the other 2 had seperate bathrooms which was good. I found the bed to be comfortable, and the linen of good quality. Each room had a window air conditioner, which was adequate (just good enough, but my room the airconditioner was quite noisy). My room had a tiny balcony. The ensuite had a small clothes cupboard, the other 2 rooms not. The bathrooms are tired but functional, generally clean but within the scope of being tired. Room lighting was poor, which probably was a good thing to mask the tiredness of the bathroom :) Linen was the normal small Asian towels, not particularly thirsty, but of decent quality. Basic soap/shampoo was provided. The water pressure was good, and the hot water was decent and plentiful (although my brother in law in another bathroon claimed the hot water stopped and started). Be caureful with the huge shower, the floor tiles can be a little slippery when wet! Mine had a nice rainshower type showerhead Toilet has a bum gun ( :) ) Large mirror and there are powerpoints in the bathroom, but I didnt use them There is a small kitchenette, with a smallish but decent fridge. We didnt really use the kitchenette, so I didnt explore it much. The lounge/dining room is quite spacious. The view from both the small balcony and lounge windows was spectacular. It had a faulty air conditioner still installed, but the other room airconditioner (split system) operated quite well It has a spacious dining table along with comfortable louge and other chairs. Like the rest of the suite its a bit tired, with some good furniture and some worn furniture. It has a flat acreen TV with cable TV access, although I hardly used it One thing of note was many of the large floor tiles were loose and some with raised edges - I could easily see bare feet being cut or having a small trip on the tile edges. There were plenty of powerpoints throughout the suite for charging devices. Im not sure if there is WiFi, as I didnt seek it out My wife told me the area was a little seedy, but I didnt note anything that concerned me. Overall a good stay, its certainly not 4 star (maybe a 3 star) - but its convenient, the cost was reasonable for its pros and cons, and it has the needed comfort that I would likely stay again if we need to stay in the area. Undoubtedly a refresh would improve things well, obviously the cost to stay would increase
