Check-In: The check-in process was quick and efficient. The lobby also has comfortable seating, which is great when waiting for a Grab or transport.
Room: I loved the room’s Japanese-inspired design—it was spacious, clean, and thoughtfully arranged. The only drawback was the air conditioning, which was tricky to adjust, making the room either too cold or too warm at times.
Mini Bar: The mini bar was well-stocked with complimentary soft drinks, beer, cup noodles, and chips. You only need to pay if you request additional items, which was a nice touch.
Restroom: The restroom was clean, though I noticed an unpleasant odor when I returned to the room on the second night.
Breakfast: The hotel offers two breakfast options: à la carte at the restaurant by the pool on Level 1 or a buffet at the Hyatt Regency next door. On the second morning, we opted for the à la carte breakfast by the pool, but the food was quite average. The portion control—one drink and one meal per person—felt limiting, and there were flies around, which affected the experience.
On the third morning, we tried the breakfast buffet at the Hyatt Regency, and it was much better. The selection was more extensive, with salads, fresh fruit, an egg station, Filipino dishes, and cereals. However, accessing the buffet involves walking through the ******, which can be unpleasant due to the smell of cigarette smoke. Alternatively, you can request a shuttle from the hotel, which drops you at the back entrance to avoid the ******.
Location: The hotel’s location is convenient, connecting to the ****** and some nearby eateries. However, I didn’t enjoy having to pass through the ****** often, as it could be crowded and smoky. On the plus side, Ayala Mall is just a 5-8 minute walk away, offering good shopping and dining options
