Clean and comfy for an overnight stay

Everything was fine, this was just a quick one night stay before flying out. Room was clean and comfortable, staff were friendly and helpful. The breakfast was a bit limited for western tastes. Only thing that I didn’t like was the room did not have an outside facing window, it did have a balcony door, but this opened onto a corridor! I was only there overnight so wasn’t a problem but if I was staying longer this would be a problem, and this was not specified in the reservation

I had the most relaxing time at `hotel moment I arrived, the experience was flawless. The check-in process was smooth. The customer service throughout my stay was top-notch, from the incredible room service. The atmosphere, views, and drinks were all exceptional. Although I stayed for only three days, it was so wonderful that I didn’t feel the need to step outside the hotel.

The hotel is located on the fourth floor of a shopping center with a small lobby on the first floor. Many rooms do not have a window. You must pay extra to get a "Deluxe" room with a window. The beds are very firm but the rooms are nice and roomy. The staff is very nice and willing to accommodate needs and requests, Airport transfers are available for a fee.

I paid for checkin luggage on line with a link they sent me with the invoice and at check in they had no record of it being paid. I gave them an invoice number and they did t know how to pull it up. I had to go to my cc transactions to prove payment and then they couldn’t figure out how to clear it out of the system so they could check us in. The whole process took 35 min with no apologies

Happy Surprise

Room fairly modern for Philippines. We accidentally booked a good location, the Baywalk was just three blocks away. It’s convenient to the airport, and most tour companies will come directly here due to the good location. Close to markets, mall and many stores that are up and down the street in walking distance. We were happy with everything.

The staff is nice, the room was good for the value. Roosters crow every morning at 4:30am. Your options is a room with no windows or a room on the mainstreet that is also loud. It is the owners responsibility to make a deal with a guy that has 10 chickens and 5 roosters. Hire him, buy his chickens or buy the property that has the roosters. Go to the city and complain This area is not zoned as a farm. Or your ratings will suffer. I complained to Expedia and they called the hotel and no one responded to Exoedia. This poor customer experience and noise level will get you bad reviews.

Good value -- at a different 'cost'

ROOM TYPE: Deluxe PROS: Friendly and helpful staff Adaptable outlets [no USA Adapter req'd] Open Roof Deck for relaxing Large Room(s) Breakfast adequate [local] foods. Near Bayview Park [popular eateries, evening walks, etc.] Spacious Bath and separate tub CONS: WI-FI: Fair-Poor Ping:115-300ms; Download:15.66mbps Upload:7.8mbps "Ocean View" rooms, however, ALL come with not-the-nicest backyard view directly below at ground-level, as well as [possibly] THREE (3) Roosters that crow non-stop! Loud Karaoke bar nearby ... even on SUNDAY night. OBSERVATIONS: Gym is extra fee Hotel is ONLY the TOP (4th) floor of the large/expansive MegaMall; There are many rooms, but only "Ocean Views" (really "Bay View") have OUTSIDE views. Others are 'Superior Room' type, meaning 'windows' to hallways. Hotel is under airport/flight path. However, there are FEW flights daily. Firm/Hard Bed/bedding No internet when on the rooftop Deck. In the busiest part of the 'old' town/waterfront.

Don’t let the front entrance fool you. The street side is extremely busy, noisy, and rather dirty. Once inside the hotel the small lobby is quite nice. The rooms are above are quiet and it feels completely different from outside. Two of us shared a room with two large beds quite spacious. We had a balcony with a commanding view of the bay. Breakfast buffet was enough mostly Filipino foods but did have toast and buns, oatmeal, cold cereals. The only complaint was the TV did not get any stations. Also the obscured glass enclosure for bathroom is not very private, especially with light on in bathroom. You can definitely see shadows of person inside and noise was not insulated. Parts of the glass covering were peeling so it was clear. Close to everything the SM Mall is 10 minutes away by walking also the bay front walk is around the corner. There is pharmacy downstairs as well as a supermarket and local department store
