8/10 Very good

Reasonable hotel with a buffet breakfast ( limited non-Philippines options). The wifi in our room kept cutting out but seemed Ok in the common areas. Several Xmas functions held in the hotel during our 3 night stay. A little noisy but finished by 10pm.

Scott, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Excellent location in downtown area. After many stays here, I almost can't stand eating in lobby restaurant. Food is unappealing. Needs variety. I would suggest breakfast buffet selection include eggs cooked to order; pancakes; bacon
