The hotel offers clean rooms with good free amenities, a decent shower with hot water, and an alright bed for a night's stay. The cleanliness is a plus, but the room lacks good AC, WiFi, and is situated near the elevator, which can be inconvenient. The pricing seems high considering the room limitations.

I stayed at the hotel and found it to be a mixed experience. The rooms were clean and well maintained, but they felt a bit too small for my liking. The service was a bit of a hit and miss. While the staff were very humble and friendly, there were instances where I felt ignored in favor of serving other guests. The location was a bit of a downside for me due to the noise from a busy road nearby, but it was convenient being close to shopping centers in Cebu City. The dining options were limited, and the offerings could have been more appetizing. However, the facilities were decent overall.

My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The rooms were just okay with free amenities, a good shower, and hot water, but I found the lighting lacking, and there was a loud noise that bothered me. The cleanliness could have been better, but for a night, it was acceptable. The bed was alright, and the breakfast, although nothing special, served its purpose.

Location

The location was a little sketchy, and I didn't feel entirely safe, especially with signs in the elevator about leaving weapons at reception. Although it was strategic being near SM Mall and Ayala Center Cebu, the surrounding area was not the best.
