Hotel Review
The Bedroom
The room has 1 queen size bed and 4 pillows, a desk at the corner, cabinet, and a not-so-spacious balcony covered with fitted (immovable) curtains.
The Balcony
A not-so-wide balcony space but still good enough to witness the view outside.
Sofa/Entertainment Area
Impressive couch/sofa good for relaxing while watching movies on the flat-screen.
Hotel Restaurant
This is the hotel’s restaurant that is usually open only in the morning. Not so spacious but obviously well-maintained.
Reception Area
What I love most is the detes that you can find here. There are a lot of wall decors and the sculpture of the elephant looks so cute.
How to book V.I.P. Suite
Booking for the hotel is available online via booking.com, expedia, agoda and hotel’s website. Mostly, the cheapest rate that you can find is with agoda.
Cons of V.I.P. Suite
Sanitation and Facilities
The room smelled like cigarette smoke. I don’t know why it smelled as if someone just finished smoking because our room is a non-smoking(area). Also, the flat-screen tv wasn’t working during our 1-day stay.
Location
Although the place is in the metro, it’s still one ride away from restaurants and malls especially on a rainy season or when you are not used to having long walks.
Noisy Environment
Even when the doors are closed, it is still undeniably especially the noise coming from the balcony.
Remarks
The overall experience was great given that we were treated nicely and the staff attended to our needs accordingly.
Kudos to all of the friendly staff who greeted us warmly and the security guard who took an extra effort in finding a good taxi for us on a rainy evening!
