This place looks like it was once nice but has fallen into disrepair. We were told - after we checked in and had paid and settled in to the room - that the room was only for 12 hours, but we could stay until 6AM since they had forgotten to tell us. Felt like a scam to me but could just be a badly managed place. Either way, recommend finding another place. AC was old and didn't work, the whole hotel was dirty and run…

What guests say
Likes the place spent here for a night with the family. The service is really good, they even let us cook in their kitchen. Though, the bay walk is still under renovation so the sight outside our room was not to great. Unfortunate events happened outside the hotel which was beyond their control and the electricity was cut off for few hours. But over all experience was fun.
I liked the place but they were under renovation. The rooms could have been presented nicer but the cold AC made up for it. Staff was friendly and helpful. Let us choose our room. View was mediocre, construction killed the scenery but maybe when everything is finished ittl be a real paradise.
Stayed one night, perfect place to stop with good restaurant close by. Staff were excellent great price. Will be really nice once Bay walk is finished.
The worst hotel you can stay in Philippines stay very away... Cockroach like 200 I'm not joking.... Dirty, left over all over from previous guests... And the best part, I checked out 10 minutes after checkout time... And the lady insist to pay half day rate.... For 10 minites...??? Don't even bother... Hotel change ownership... And since then it just getting worst and worst...
One word to describe this hotel, D-I-R-T-Y. You don't want to be here. Events place is spacious but would not recommend it.
I like the place and the imployee's are approachable and the food rating is off the chart.. Well done and cooked perfectly
