Came from a nice, decent, economical hotel in Manila to this one and was VERY disappointed. The only things I liked were the Continental breakfast in the morning and the Free WiFi which worked well in my room.
Other than being 2-3 minutes away from the Beach, the towels were old and dingy, and the linen on the bed was not crisp and clean and looked very old. I did not feel comfortable sleeping on the bed at all, and wrapped up in my own clothes at night to sleep.
There is no phone in the room, nor an elevator at the hotel, so I had to walk up three flights of steps all day. The bathroom only had a shower and the water would get all over the floor. The air-conditioning was cold and I liked the availability of the cable television which was nice, but all in all, I would have stayed somewhere nicer (like I had planned but my accomodations fell through due to it being Chinese New Year).
If you are on a budget and don't care about any of what I mentioned then its a go, but for me I did not enjoy my stay at the hotel as much as I could have due to these particulars. Now the staff was nice and friendly, and even though the neighborhood seems sketchy, I actually walked from Station 3 to Station 1 all the way to the hotel at 1am in the morning and NO ONE BOTHERED me! (I wouldn't suggest doing this though). I failed to mention that I am a woman too, and was by myself. Now if my room would have had fresh white towels and better bed linen, it would have been okay. But like I stated, if on a budget stay here, or find some place a little nicer so you can really get a good nights sleep after hitting the beach.
