Great location”

My mom love that it was right across Greenbelt 5 where her favorite shops were located. The only hassle was during my check in. I grab a car going to the building, when I arrived my grab driver was asked to turn around because the check in was at the back and mind you it was raining cats and dogs. When I arrived to the said check in behind the building which looks sketchy if not for the guy that told us awhile ago infront of the building to go around. When I checked in, I figured that I could've just use the front entrance and not hassle the driver. I mean they could give me a leway since it was pouring rain. But aside from that everything was great. WIFI was strong, room was clean and they cleaned it everyday. They made sure we cross the road safely. Convenient location since there was 7eleven, ministop beside the building and salons too. We needed massage the night before we fly back home and they send us good masseuse. Water and ammenities were replenished everyday as well.

Great location, price and staff. Pressing issues need to be resolved to encourage return customers ”

There was no WiFi and phone service at the time we were checked which made it difficult to maintain communication with my family overseas. I had to rely on borrowed cellphones to communicate with the front desk from my room. There was also one day when I arrived with the bed unmade and I had to request the staff to clean the bathroom and provide fresh towels. The iron and hair dryer had to be requested from the office as well rather than being in the room. The Agoda app allowed me to choose options for beds. I chose two twin beds but the BSA staff informed me that they don’t have rooms that allowed for the options offered by Agoda. I would consider both Agoda and BSA for my future travels and for arranging accommodations for my family in the Philippines if such issues would be addressed.

Very rude security guard!”

So we’ve stayed here before. We arrived late already and were quite tired. Since we’ve stayed here before, I decided to ask my partner to wait at the front lobby whilst I go to the back to check since our luggage was quite heavy and big. Firstly the security guard saw us struggling and didn’t even bother to help open the door. Then he was telling us we can’t go in and have to check in with reception at the back. I told him that my partner was just going to wait at the front with our big luggage whilst I go to the back and sort everything out but he kept insisting and gave as attitude. I told him our luggage is heavy, it’s staring to rain. Whilst I checked in, I asked the receptionist that is it not allowed at all to wait at the front since our luggage was big and heavy, she said it was perfectly fine. So throughout our stay the guard gave us attitude. For the other days, the other security guards were super friendly and always smiled. Beware of such behaviours and report them immediately to the management.

We have stayed at BSA Towers many times , but this time there were some problems. The entrance on Legaspi street is closed & you have you enter from the street behind. Whilst they told us this they did not give a street address. With the one way streets & traffic it took our taxi some 15 minutes to drive from the font entrace to the back entrance ( probably only 500 m away). Second problem was that they are doing renovation work so the wifi system was down. They provided us with a small unit, but that also had to be replaced within 24 hours. We will only return if we know these problems are fixed.
