"Excellent!
Clean rooms although a bit old now. I think it needs some upgrading especially the bathroom. Television is a bit outdated as well.
Quiet air-conditioning and perfect nice temperature inside the room.
Massive hotel with lots of restaurants to choose from and activities to do.
Very pleasant garden, nice beach and resort.
Perfect for staycation and relaxation or to celebrate occasions.
Courteous, friendly, and helpful staff.
Overall experience is wonderful! Highly recommend.!"
"Staff was awesome. There isnt much in walking distance so just be prepared to use GRAB app for delivery from food spots.
Will definitely come back here again."
"I always stay here when I have errands in Cebu. It doesn’t have many frills. But it is very clean, comfortable and hospitable staff. For th price, I think it’s a VERY solid option. And, when you book ahead, they always pre-cool the room.
I mean, I think this was my 5th stay and I’ll be back in a few weeks. "
