Staff ignores your request

Even though there was a secret switch, you have to push to make the AC work. We called and called the front desk, but nobody actually came to fix it until about 7 PM so they let us suffer for five hours with no AC.

Pretty much everything is average as I would expect from hotels I've been to in the Philippines so far. Not the cleanest or dirtiest just average but as I have come to expect great customer service.

Currently not a good place to stay!

The place is currently under construction. The air conditioner in the room did not work!😡It’s currently 9@ degrees in the Philippines. The staff was kind enough to change our room . Lots of noise here also due to the construction!💥💥💥😱

TERRIBLE!

Do not book online! I booked a room for my wife and two kids. Picture showed two twin beds. After booking it showed one double bed. They get there an it is one twin bed. Not big enough for all three. The hotel would not change. They had to sleep sideways. NEVER AGAIN

Certainly not as the picture describes.Curtains so thin that the light outside the window lit the room up..so I checked out, before my sleep would be totally ruined.I realise it's not an expensive hotel but at least consider the sleeping arrangements,if you have a light outside the bedroom window shining in the room,provide blackout curtains

TACLOBAN - Two One Night Stays in February 2019

I had a birthday celebration to attend in Barugo on 11 February and stayed in Tacloban 10 and 12 February. The hotel was pleasant and the staff helpful. There were several restaurants and stores in the area. PROS: Nice room with powerful a/c (almost too much), a basic breakfast, nice staff, and decent wifi. CONS: Restaurant was only available for breakfast, no refrigerator in room, their picture show what looks like a coffee maker but is actually a thermos, so you cant make coffee, hot water was slow to come up but it was available just took a long time to get to the bathroom.

Located in the centre of downtown so both pros and cons vis-a-vis situation - convenient but in the midst of the bustle.
