BEST PLACE NEAR EVERYWHERE”

We arrived to Alicia at night 01/16 by a taxi cost 220php (frm airport to here) . It is located beside Alicia Apartelle so it is easy to find. The first place we saw was the mini garden infront of the hotel which is very nice. We got assisted very well at the front desk and got our luggage in the room. We got the 2 single bed room because that is the only availabe room through agoda. We were advised that we can merge the bed tho. The room was clean, decent and the aircon was cold. The place was quite so you can really sleep well after a long travel. We got free breakfast at their pantry which serves delicious food. Tonton and me stayed here for 4 days to celebrate sinulog and just rented a motorcycle. Alicia provided us free parking at their basement. On the time of check out we asked if we can leave our luggage for a bit because we planned to go to South Cebu and they let us fill out a form to come back and get our luggage. Every thing comes easy for us because of them. Kudos guys!

There are two Alicia buildings and I happen to get the RESIDENCE one which is the older and I guess, cheaper version of Alicia TOWER. I wasn't aware of this so I guess someone should point it out. It took me an hour and a half to get there from airport because the area is prone to heavy traffic. Let's talk about the room: If you don't mind the noise from the street, then this will be perfect for you. My room was on the roof deck but because the windows are not sound proof and they gave me the room across the road, I had a little bit trouble sleeping at night. Aside from that, I had nothing else to concern about. The little room was very clean as well as their bathroom. The bed and sheets and comforter were soft and nice. The airconditioner was working perfectly. All in all, I had a good stay in this hotel.

Good for overnight ”

Booked at Alicia Residences since this is near where the event I'm going. It has the basics - towel, shower gel, soap, toilet paper, tissue. The beddings comfortable enough. Hot water, air-con, elevator working properly. What caught my attention is they have tables and chairs on every floor where you can relax - fresh air. Also at the ground floor they have living room sofas, open garden for you to enjoy the cool breeze. Our lodging includes free breakfast. Dont expect too much but its edible and I guess with the value of the lodging enjoying a free breakfast is already good -

Good Value for money.. Other staffs in the residence are horrible”

Pro's: - good location - cheap hotel - room is clean - provided all amenities in the hotel except for dental kits - breakfast is okay Cons: - there is a 1000 check in deposit and it was not specified in their page about the said deposit (for me it is not worth it to have a 1000 deposit since the said hotel is not a 3 star or 4 star hotel in the city, it is a hotel/residence for simple people especially those who are not from cebu) - staffs in the front desk are nice but during check in time they don't know how to manage things like putting the receipts and money accordingly ending "magkara2x na dayon" - there is a particular staff in the mini mart na dili kabalo musmile like mag cge ra ug mug.ot2x murag dili sila ganahan sa ila job (in my opinion) - to future travellers na will have their stay in the hotel make sure to check the door before leaving because sometimes their door will not be lock due to low battery (for safety)

Best location ”

I enjoyed our stay in Alicia Residences last Jan. 12-15,2017. Pros: with free bottle of water everyday, tissues and soap. They also have canteen, mini grocery and laundry area at the lower floor. Can easily commute going to ayala, sm and jy square. Nice staff, clean rooms, cable tv and approachable guards.

Perfekt place for simple peoples”

This is the cheapest place in Cebu City. Aircon 2 bottles wather towells changed every day breakfast billiard ping pong hot wather shampoo tissues 2 kinds 100 pesos only the pool plads free towel use in pool. All for 18 euros. Very kind staff. Security Boks also in the room. You can t find better.

Good location and value for money.”

Clean room and spacious bathroom. Replenish bottled water during our stay here. Gaisano Country Mall is just near if you wanted some quick bites and do groceries. Try Dimsum break just across the hotel for other affordable meals. If you want to go to Ayala mall or Robinsons mall, its just one grab away. Will definitely book again for future Cebu trips here.

One of the bests”

The place is awesome. If only we discovered it earlier, we would have booked it then. It's clean and accessible, .the staff are helpful and very accommodating. They have clean cafeteria and lounge to chill. I really love this place. Can't help talking about this place with my colleagues. In fact, I already recommended it to them. Thank you Alicia

Exceptional”

Nice room, very clean and also close to malls just walking distance. It’s my 2nd time to booked this room. The room has hot shower, they cleaned the room everyday. I would definitely book again soon. Thank you Alicia!

Clean and cheap stopover option”

Safe area with 24 hour security. The room was very clean and could not fault it. Cleaner than some hotels where you pay 4 x the price. The residences is full of students which is fine for us as a young couple travelling around. Opposite is a mall style area with lots of food options and a supermarket which came in really handy.

Very clean. Staff was all friendly and helpful. The location is great. Rooms are well equipped”

I needed a place to work for 2 nights and they did not disappoint. Location is at the heart of Banilad so its near everything. Plus, the building is clean and has good security. Rooms are great. We got a really good deal for our stay!

远离市区，房间存在油漆味，床很小，空调噪音大”

There are two buildings under the name of Alicia, which are run by same owner I think. The one I resided is Alicia Residences, of which environment is moderately nice. But there are several defects I must point out. First, painting smells quite bad. Second, the window air conditioner produces much noise. Third, the bed is small.

ORGANIZE AND DECENT”

From its exterior view, it is really decent looking. As well as the interior, it is neat and spacious. Easy to way-find. The security is well managed. They have this card for all access points of the property. So, it s not easy for the outsiders to access the building. When it comes to the staffs, they are not snobbish, not intimidating, BUT, they don't have the initiatives to help with the baggage. They tend to wait for you to call them for assistance. In my personal experience, they don't have people coming in-and-out at that moment, and they didn't help us unload our bags from the vehicle. I can say that, they are just "chill", which is also good because they are not intimidating, as what I have mentioned previously. But, they are not decorations -for us to feel at home, they are a assistants -to assist clients. It is very uncomplicated all in all. They have lounge, cafeteria, laundry area.. amenities that are necessary for travelers and residents.

Has Options for daily, weekly or monthly stay”

The pedestrian entrance requires a keycard, I didn’t have one yet so the guard let me in. For security purposes I found this a plus. I already paid for my stay with my credit card So I am surprised that they asked for security deposit of 1000 pesos (I am local and Other hotels I’ve stayed at didn’t really ask for security deposit). I was only staying 1 night. Thankfully there was a BDO nearby and I took out cash. The room is decent in size. The room had 2bottles of water, toiletries, towels, cable tv, high speed WIFI (this made me very happy), lockers and a security deposit box. I am a little sad about the AC because it was so noisy, I get jolted and wake up. If i only had earplugs with me it wouldn’t have bothered me. It was nice they had a cafeteria that opens at 6am. There is a convenience store and Laundry shop. BTC and Gaisano country mall is a minute walk. Banks are nearby too. I enjoyed my stay and will recommend this to friends and family.

Great place to stay”

My mom and son stayed in this place for 2 nights from Nov 16 to 17. My mom really liked the place. She said the place was so clean and the staff were so accommodating. She asked me to give this place an excellent review because they deserve it and she said she will definitely stay again in this place if she has the chance to do so. 👏👏👏

Private Room, perfect budget-friendly option”

I booked a private room. It was like a white box with its own bathroom, lockers, a nice bed, and good air conditioning. It can get noisy in the hallways but quieted down at night. The room was clean and super comfortable. Aircon was strong and cold. It comes with a small safe in the lockers, but the locker shelving couldn't handle heavy bags. Towels were thin and rough. The bathroom's hot water didn't work. They provided shampoo and soap, though. Toilet area, sink, and shower were clean. WiFi was down too, but mobile data in Cebu is relatively unencumbered hence pretty fast so that didn't matter so much. It's perfect for people looking for good rooms on the cheap — just somewhere nice to sleep. The building was dingy but the room was wonderful and cozy. Banilad Town Center is right across the street and there are affordable restaurants all over the area.

Very good”

Great value for money especially when you're in a budget and the cleanliness is super! I expected the room to be smaller but it was quite roomy and even provided with basic toiletries and bottled water. The wifi was pretty good during my stay and the breakfast was of decent value relative to the price I paid for the room. The walls are a bit think however, probably had something to do with the excessive window setup. Anyway, we enjoyed our stay that we extended 3x. Highly recommended!

Everything was perfect! ”

We really enjoyed our stay at Alicia and we really can't find anything negative to say about this place. We will definitely stay here again.

Prime location and excellent value”

This place is actually a student dorm in the lower floors, so common areas had that college dorm feel.. Hotel rooms at the top floors were more than what you’d expect for the price - duvets, safe, good quality bath products, in-room phone, and good internet connection. Breakfast was very basic, good thing there was a Bo’s Coffee right across the street at Banilad Town Center, an excellent neighborhood mall. Traffic in the area during peak hours is heavy but bearable, and its really close to Ayala Center.

Real value for money”

Accommodation was superb; aircon room, hot and cold water for bath, cable TV, fast wi-fi. Room was cleaned everyday and towels were changed daily. The cafeteria provided delicious, clean and very cheap food. The staff was courteous and very efficient. Facilities were nice. However, I would suggest that a hot water dispenser be provided for guests' use.
